Answer:

4. Parabola

Explanation:

The motion of the flight of the grenade is a projectile motion, it's shape is best illustrated using a parabolic diagram.

It's not a circle as the path is not totally round.

It's not an ellipse as the path of motion is not a a completely bounded shape.

Its not a hyperbola as a hyperbola is an open curve with two branches.

Its a parabolic shape because a parabola has just one branch

A weight of 30.0 N is suspended from a spring that has a force constant of 220 N/m. The system is undamped and is subjected to a
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

F_0 = 393 N

Explanation:

As we know that amplitude of forced oscillation is given as

A = \frac{F_0}{ m(\omega^2 - \omega_0^2)}

here we know that natural frequency of the oscillation is given as

\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

here mass of the object is given as

m = \frac{W}{g}

\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{220}{\frac{30}{9.81}}}

\omega_0 = 8.48 rad/s

angular frequency of applied force is given as

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi(10.5) = 65.97 rad/s

now we have

0.03 = \frac{F_0}{3.06(65.97^2 - 8.48^2)}

F_0 = 393 N

You see a total eclipse of the sun. Three Saros cycles later, you find yourself at the same location.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. You would not have to travel far to see another total eclipse  .

Explanation:

it is said that the way to predict or know beforehand if there is a lunar or solar eclipse is just to know the what is called the saros which are periods of exactly 223 synodic months and the eclipses are repeated or occurred in the same location every 3 Saros cycles.

How do odd-shaped ceilings, decorative panels, draperies, and glass windows affect echo and noise?
vesna_86 [32]
I think they decrease echo and reduce noise, they do this by either absorbing vibrations or by scattering the sound so that echoes arrive at different times rather than reverberating as a standing wave. An echo is a reflection of a sound that arrives at the listener with a delay after the direct sound. The delay is usually proportional to the distance of the reflecting surface from the source and the listener.

A bubble of air is rising up through the ocean. When it is at a depth of 20.0 m below the surface, where the temperature is 5.00
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

the volume is 0.253 cm³

Explanation:

The pressure underwater is related with the pressure in the surface through Pascal's law:

P(h)= Po + ρgh

where Po= pressure at a depth h under the surface (we assume = 1atm=101325 Pa) , ρ= density of water ,g= gravity , h= depth at h meters)

replacing values

P(h)= Po + ρgh = 101325 Pa + 1025 Kg/m³ * 9.8 m/s² * 20 m = 302225 Pa

Also assuming that the bubble behaves as an ideal gas

PV=nRT

where

P= absolute pressure, V= gas volume ,n= number of moles of gas, R= ideal gas constant , T= absolute temperature

therefore assuming that the mass of the bubble is the same ( it does not absorb other bubbles, divides into smaller ones or allow significant diffusion over its surface) we have

at the surface) PoVo=nRTo

at the depth h) PV=nRT

dividing both equations

(P/Po)(V/Vo)=(T/To)

or

V=Vo*(Po/P)(T/To) = 0.80 cm³ * (101325 Pa/302225 Pa)*(277K/293K) = 0.253 cm³

V = 0.253 cm³
