<h2>After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

Initial velocity = 450 ft/s = 137.16 m/s

Angle, θ = 70°

Consider the vertical motion of projectile,

When the projectile return to the ground we have

Displacement, s = 0 m

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

Initial velocity, u = 137.16 x sin70 = 128.89 m/s

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5 at²

s = ut + 0.5 at²

0 = 128.89 x t + 0.5 x (-9.81) x t²

t² - 26.28 t = 0

t ( t- 26.28) = 0

t = 0 s or t = 26.28 s

After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.

Answer:

7) there is a theory that these animals can see the magnetic field of the Earth due to a compass like mechanism inside their eyes in order to navigate.

8) Earth's magnetic field is a result of the currents found inside the outer core that consist of electricity.

The question is in the picture

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

e) 120m/s

Explanation:

When the ball reaches its highest point, its velocity becomes zero, meaning

$v_0-gt = 0$ .

where $v_0$ is the initial velocity.

Solving for $t$ we get

$t = \dfrac{v_0}{g}$

which is the time it takes the ball to reach the highest point.

Now, after the ball has reached its highest point, it turns around and falls downwards. After time $t_0$ since it had reached the highest point, the ball has traveled downwards and the velocity $v_f$ it has gained is

$v_f = gt_0$ ,

and we are told that this is twice the initial velocity $v_0$ ; therefore,

$v_f = 2v_0 = gt_0$

which gives

$t_0 = \dfrac{2v_0}{g}.$

Thus, the total time taken to reach velocity $2v_0$ is

$t_{tot} = t+t_0 = \dfrac{v_0}{g}+\dfrac{2v_0}{g}$

$t_{tot} = \dfrac{3v_0}{g}.$

This $t_{tot}$ , we are told, is 36 seconds; therefore,

$36= \dfrac{3v_0}{g},$

and solving for $v_0$ we get:

$v_0 = \dfrac{36g}{3}$

$v_0 = \dfrac{36s(10m/s^2)}{3}$

$\boxed{v_0 = 120m/s}$

which from the options given is choice e.

You are on a train that is traveling at 3.0 m/s along a level straight track. Very near and parallel to the track is a wall that

loris [4]

Questions Diagram is attached below

Answer:

$T=2.08s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of Train $V=3.0m.s$

Angle $\theta=12\textdegree$

Height of window $h_w=0.90m$

Width of window $w_w=2.0m$

The Horizontal distance between B and A from Trigonometric Laws is mathematically given by

$b=\frac{0.9}{tan12}$

$b=4.23$

Therefore

Distance from A-A

$d_a=2.0+4.23$

$d_a=6.23$

Therefore

Time Required to travel trough d is mathematically given as

$T=\frac{d_a}{v}$

$T=\frac{6.23}{3}$

$T=2.08s$
