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.

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Q stay the same

Explanation:

Charging of capacitor is done by battery . If battery is disconnected , charging will stop . There will not be any discharging as plates are separate . So pulling the plates apart will not affect the charge lying on the capacitor . It will decrease its capacity and increase its potential , keeping its charge constant.

To increase the amount of electricity produced in the U.S., we could place what on top of all Wal-Mart stores?
Alecsey [184]

That's a great idea !  A wind turbine (windmill) or solar panels
on the roof of every WalMart, but don't stop there.  Let K-Mart,
Target, Sears, Macy's, 7-11, McDonald's, and Subway in on it too. 

In fact, why not place them on the roof of every house and
apartment building too ?

Just one question:  Who's going to pay for them ?
_________________________________________________

The biggest single year-round residential use of energy in the
USA is to heat up and keep a ready supply of hot water.  So the
single biggest residential use of energy could be eliminated with
a simple solar water heater on the roof of every house.  From my
own personal observation, I know that Israel is there now, but here
in the USA, it's apparently not worth the time, effort, or expense ! ? !

Answer:

Voltage Drop Testing

Explanation:

The motives behind conducting Voltage Drop Testing is to recognize or identify the presence of unwanted resistance in the wire. or any other electrical appliance.  The appliance used to calculate the voltage drop is digital volt ohmmeters.  

voltage drop is the amount of loss of voltage due to resistance when electric current flow through the circuit. Thus measuring the voltage drop in respect to the amount of current flow, resistance can be measured.
