A shot-putter projects the shot at 42.00˚ to the horizontal from a height of 2.100 m. It lands 17.00 m away horizontally. Next,

he gives it the same initial speed but changes the angle to
40.00˚. What effect does this have on the horizontal range? Watch significant figures! It matters in this

Answer:

Explanation:

Let 100 m/s  be the velocity of projection.

So horizontal component

= 100 cos42

= 74.31 m /s

Vertical component = - 100 sin 42 . in upward direction

66.91 m/s

Net displacement = 2.1 downwards ( + ve )

Using s = ut + 1/2 gt²

2.1 = - 66.91 t  + .5 x 9.8 x t²

4.9 t² -  66.91 t - 2.1 = 0

t = 13.685 s

Horizontal distance covered

= 13.685 x 74.31

= 1016.93 m

If angle of projction is 40°

So horizontal component

= 100 cos40

= 76.60 m /s

Vertical component = - 100 sin 42 . in upward direction

64.27 m/s

Net displacement = 2.1 downwards ( + ve )

Using s = ut + 1/2 gt²

2.1 = -76.60 t  + .5 x 9.8 x t²

4.9 t² -  76.60 t - 2.1 = 0

t = 15.659  s

Horizontal distance covered

= 15.659 x 76.60

= 1199.49  m

So horizontal range is increased , if angle of projection is increased .

Calculate the energy needed to heat 4 kg of water from 25°C to 45°C.
inna [77]
(1 cal/g °C) x (4000 g) x (45 - 25)°C = 80000 cal = 80 kcal. So the answer is 80 kcal .

A block and tackle is used to lift an automobile engine that weighs 1800 N. The person exerts a force of 300 N to lift the engin
Sidana [21]

Answer:

1800/300 = 6ropes

Explanation:

The engine weighs 1800N and the person exerts a force of 300N, so for him to lift the engine and exerting a force of 300N all through we divide the weight of the engine by the force exerted to know how many ropes are used. Which makes it 6 thereby each rope uses 300N to lift the engine.

A baseball has a mass of 0.145 kilograms, and a bowling ball has a mass of 6.8 kilograms. What is the gravitational force betwee
larisa [96]
We can use the equation for Newton's Law of Gravitation
Fg = (Gm₁m₂)/r²
Where gravitational constant = G = 6.674 x 10⁻¹¹ N · m²/kg²
mass m₁ = 0.145 kg
mass m₂ = 6.8 kg
distance between centers of masses = r = 0.5 m

Substitute these values into... 
Fg = (Gm₁m₂)/r²
Fg = ((6.674 x 10⁻¹¹)(0.145)(6.8)) / (0.5)²
Fg = 2.63 x 10⁻¹⁰ N 

Therefore, your answer should be

Answer:

Explanation:

The image is real light rays actually focus at the image location). As the object moves towards the mirror the image location moves further away from the mirror and the image size grows (but the image is still inverted).
