Answer:

Propagation of an Electromagnetic Wave. Electromagnetic waves are waves which can travel through the vacuum of outer space. Mechanical waves, unlike electromagnetic waves, require the presence of a material medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another.

Calculate the time of fight for a horizontally launched projectile from a height of 20m above the ground with an initial velocit
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

0.5sec

Explanation:

Parameters

Height(H) =20m

Initial velocity(u) = 5m/s

Acceleration due to gravity(g) =10m/s^2

Method one

Using the second law of motion

H=ut-1/2gt^2

20=5t-1/2×10×t^2

20=5t-5t^2

dh/dt = 5-10t

where any constant is zero therefore the 20 is zero

5-10t=0

Collect like terms

-10t= -5

t=1/2 = 0.5sec

2nd method

Parameters

Height(H) =20m

Initial velocity(u) = 5m/s

Acceleration due to gravity(g) =10m/s^2

Using the time taken formula

t=u/g

t=5/10

t=0.5sec

A constant net torque is exerted on an object. Which of the following quantities for the object cannot be constant? (Select all
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

A. kinetic energy

B. angular velocity

E. angular position

Explanation:

The quantities that cannot be constant if a constant net torque is exerted on an objecta are:

A. Kinetic energy. If a torque is applied, the linear or angular speed will be changing at a rate proportional to the torque, so the kinetic energy will change too.

B. Angular velocity. It will change at a rate equal to the torque.

C. Angular position. If the angular velocity changes, the angular position will change.

A squirrel jumps down from a tall tree. Assuming the squirrel is in free fall, how far will it have fallen in 1.5 seconds?
snow_tiger [21]
D = 1/2gt^2 <-- free fall formula

d = (0.5)(9.81)(1.5^2)
d = 11.03625
d = 11.04 m

hope this helps and have a great day :)
