Answer:

By dropping a pencil from a certain fixed height again and again it will make the target super messay with marks of dot everywhere on the target and some even out side the target.

A ball of mass m is thrown into the air in a 45° direction of the horizon, after 3 seconds the ball is seen in a direction 30° f
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Velocity (magnitude) is 98.37 m/s

Explanation:

We use the vertical component of the initial velocity, which is:

v_{0y}=v_0*sin(45)=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0

Using kinematics expression of vertical velocity (in y direction) for an accelerated motion (constant acceleration, which is gravity):

v_{y}=v_{0y}+a*t=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0-9.8t

Now we need to find v_y as a function of v_0. We use the horizontal velocity, which is always the same as follow:

v_x=v_0cos(45\º)=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0=v_{t=3}*cos(30\º) \\

We know the angle at 3 seconds:

v_y(t=3)=v_{t=3}*sin(30\º)\\v_{t=3}=\frac{v_y}{sin(30\º)}

Substitute  v_{t=3} in  v_x and then solve for  v_y

\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0=\frac{v_y*cos(30\º) }{sin(30\º)} \\v_y=\frac{\sqrt{6} }{6}v_0

With this expression we go back to the kinematic equation and solve it for initial speed

\frac{\sqrt{6} }{6} v_0 =\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0-29.4\\v_0(\frac{\sqrt{6}-3\sqrt{2}}{6} )=-29.4\\v_0=98.37 m/s

Explain why the atomic mass of an element is a weighted-average mass
Sliva [168]
The isotopes contribute to the average atomic mass based on their abundance. The result is that the "average" mass for the atoms of an element is dictated by the most abundant or common isotope. The average atomic mass for carbon is 12.0107 amu. The atomic mass as displayed on the periodic table is a weighted average relative atomic mass of the naturally occuring isotopes of that element. An isotope is an element with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons For example - Carbon naturally occurs in isotopes C12, C13 and C14 with abundances of 98.9% 1.1% and 'trace' respectively. the average mass is then calculated by 12*98.9%+13*1.1% = 12.01g/mol

How much heat is needed to boil 5.30 kg of water at its boiling point?
vivado [14]

Answer:

Required heat Q = 11,978 KJ

Explanation:

Given:

Mass = 5.3 kg

Latent heat of vaporization of water = 2,260 KJ / KG

Find:

Required heat Q

Computation:

Required heat Q = Mass x Latent heat of vaporization of water

Required heat Q = 5.3 x 2260

Required heat Q = 11,978 KJ

Required heat Q = 12,000 KJ (Approx.)
