As a projectile moves down its vertical velocity is positive?

Physics
1 answer:
Delvig [45]3 years ago
7 0

When YOU start working on a problem, if the question doesn't TELL you which direction is positive and which is negative, then YOU get to decide before you start solving the problem.

MOST often, people use positive for UP and negative for DOWN, just because that's the way we naturally think of 'up' and 'down'.  But there's no law.  If you want to, you can just as well call up 'negative' and call down 'positive'.

Which description best matches the image below of a hand that is using the right-hand palm rule?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

When reviewing the results, the correct one is C

Explanation:

The right hand rule is widely useful in knowing the direction of force in a maganto field,

The ruler sets the thumb in the direction of the positive particle, the fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field, and the palm in the direction of the force.

Let's apply this to our exercise.

The thumb that is the speed goes in the negative direction of the axis,

The two extended that the magnetic field look negative x,

The span points entered the dear sheet the negative the Z axis

When reviewing the results, the correct one is C

The sound from a single source can reach point O by two different paths. One path is 20.0 m long and the second path is 21.0 m l
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

minimum frequency = 170 Hz

Explanation:

given data

One path long = 20 m

second path long = 21 m

speed of sound = 340 m/s

solution

we get here destructive phase that is path difference of minimum \frac{\lambda}{2}

here  λ is the wavelength of the wave

so path difference will be

21 - 20 = \frac{\lambda}{2}  

λ = 2 m

and

velocity that is express as

velocity = frequency × wavelength    .............1

frequency  = \frac{340}{2}  

minimum frequency = 170 Hz

Where are you on Earth if you experience each of the following? (Refer to the discussion in Observing the Sky: The Birth of Astr
Aloiza [94]

Explanation:

We know that the sky appears to us like a sphere called as celestial sphere which appears to rotate around an imaginary axis because of Earth's rotation. Since the axis cuts the celestial sphere at celestial poles all the object seems to circle around the celestial poles.

Condition 1: The stars rise and set perpendicular to the horizon

The observer is at the equator

Condition 2: The stars circle the sky parallel to the horizon

The observer is at the Pole of the Earth

Condition 3: The celestial equator passes through the zenith

The observer is at the equator

Condition 4: In the course of a year, all stars are visible

The observer is at the equator

Condition 5: The Sun rises on March 21 and does not set until September 21 (ideally)

The observer is at North Pole

Which of the following statements are true?
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

A) True. Voltmeters measure voltages

C) True. They are placed in parallel

E) True ammeters are used to measure current

Explanation:

The devices for voltage measurement are the voltmeter and ammeter

Voltmeters have very high intense resistance and are placed in parallel

The ammeters have very small resist and are placed in series

Based on this establishment, let's analyze the statements

A) True. Voltmeters measure voltages

B) False has high intense resistance

C) True. They are placed in parallel

D) False ammeters are placed in series

E) True ammeters are used to measure current

F) False ammeters have a low internal resistance
