The muzzle velocity of an armor-piercing round fired from an M1A1 tank is 1770 m/s (nearly 4000 mph or mach 5.2). A tank is at t

he top of a cliff and fires a shell horizontally. If the shell lands 6520 m from the base of the cliff, how high is the cliff?

<h2>Height of cliff is 66.43 meter.</h2>

Explanation:

Consider the horizontal motion of shell,

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 1770 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²  

        Displacement, s = 6520 m      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                     6520 = 1770 x t + 0.5 x 0 xt²

                      t = 3.68 s

      Time of flight of shell = 3.68 s.

Now consider the vertical motion of shell,

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Time, t = 3.68 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 0 x 3.68 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 3.68²

                      s = 66.43 m

      Height of cliff is 66.43 meter.

Un objeto se mueve con una rapidez constante de 8 m/s. Esto significa que el objeto: a) Aumenta su rapidez en 8m/s cada segundo
Hatshy [7]

Explanation:

Constant speed means that the object is covering equal distance in equal interval of time. The motion is called uniform motion for such case. In this problem, it is given that an object is moving with a constant speed of 8 m/s. It means that it does not change its speed. It is moving with a single speed constantly.

We can say that it moves 8 meters every second or 800 cm every second.

La ecuación de la posición de una esferita está dada por: r(t)=(2.Cos(πt) i-3.Sen(πt) j) (m) ¿Cuál es la velocidad de la esferit
katovenus [111]

Answer:

v = (-4.44 i^ + 6.66 j^ )  m/s, a_average =( 0 i^ -2π j^) m/s²

Explanation:

The expression left corresponds to an oscillatory movement (MAS), the speed is defined by

         v = dr / dt

the function of position

         r = 2 cos πt  i^  + 3 sin πt  j^

let us note that it is a movement in two dimensions

let's perform the derivative

          v = -2π sin πt  i^  + 3π cos πt  j^

we evaluate this expression for t = 0.25 s, remember that the angle is in radians

          v = -2π sin (π 0.25) i^ + 3π cos (π 0.25) j^

           v = (-4.44 i^ + 6.66 j^ )  m/s

To calculate the mean acceleration we use the expression

           a = (v_{f} - v_{o}) / Δt

 

indicates that the time is the first 3 s

       

we look for the initial velocity t = 0 s

           v₀ = 0 i ^ + 3π j ^

         

we look for the fine velocity, t = 3 s

          v_f = - 2π sin (π 3) + 3π cos (π 3) j ^

          v_f = 0 i ^ - 3π j ^

we calculate the average acceleration

            Δt = (3 -0) = 3 s

           a_average = (0-0) / 3 i ^ + (-3π - 3π) / 3

           a_average = (0 i ^ -2π j ^ ) m/s²

1. Calculati greutatea unui sac cu 5 kg de cartofi într-o zonă in care acceleratia gravitatională
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

the weight is 49.1 N

Explanation:

The computation of the weight is shown below:

As we know that

= 5kg of potatoes × gravitational acceleration

= 5kg of potatoes × 9.82 m/s

= 49.1 N

Hence, the weight is 49.1 N

We simply applied the above formula in order to determine the weight
