For a projectile, why is the initial horizontal velocity equal to the final horizontal velocity?

1 answer:

I am assuming that the context is that of a thrown projectile (a ball, a bullet, etc.) in the gravitational field of the Earth.

KatRina [158]

Hi there!

The answer would be B. the slope of the plane.

Changing the slope of the plane would show how fast the ball went when Galileo changed the steepness of the slope. If he didn’t change the slopes steepness he would have the same results each time.

Hope this helps !

A car is traveling north at 17.7 m/s . After 6 it’s velocity is 141 in the same direction. Find the magnitude and direction of t

Furkat [3]

By equation of motion we have v = u + at

Where u = Initial velocity, v = final velocity, t = time taken and a = acceleration

Here v = 141 m/s, u = 17.7 m/s and t = 6 s

On substitution we will get

141 = 17.7+ 6a

So, a = (141-17.7)/6 = 20. 55 m/ $s^{2}$

Aceeleration = 20. 55 m/ $s^{2}$ along north direction.

Answer:

Q = 1.2*10⁻¹² C

Explanation:

For any capacitor, by definition the capacitance C is equal to the relationship between the charge on one of the conductors and the potential difference between them, as follows:

$C = \frac{Q}{V} (1)$

For the special case of a parallel plate capacitor, just by application of Gauss' law to a rectangular surface half out of the outer surface, and half inside it, it can be showed that the value of the capacitance C is a parameter defined only by geometric constants, as follows:

$C = \frac{\epsilon_{0}*\epsilon _{r} * A}{d} (2)$

So, due to the left sides in (1) and (2) are equal each other, right sides must be equal too.
Replacing ε₀, εr (dielectric constant), A, d and V by their values, we can solve for Q, as follows:

$Q =\frac{\epsilon_{0} * \epsilon_{r} *A* V}{d} = \frac{(8.85*(4.7)^{2}*79.5)e-24 (F/m*m2*V)}{1.3e-8m} = 1.2e-12 C = 1.2 pC (3)$

If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the object's velocity is a linear function of time.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

$F=mkv$

Explanation:

Given that

$v = v_i - kx$

We know that acceleration a given as

$a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

$v = v_i - kx$

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=\dfrac{dv_i}{dt}-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

We know that

$F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

$F=-mk\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

$F=-mkv$

So the magnitude of force F

$F=mkv$

When the number of atoms on the right side a chemical equation matches the number of atoms on the left side of a chemical equati

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Balanced.

Explanation:

A Balanced Chemical equation is a scientific term that describes a chemical equation that has the same number of atoms on each side of the equation.

Hence, when the number of atoms on the right side of a chemical equation matches the number of atoms on the left side of a chemical equation, it is said to be BALANCED.
