LiRa [457]

Answer:

hmax=81ft

Explanation:

Maximum height of the object is the highest vertical position along its trajectory.

The vertical velocity is equal to 0 (Vy = 0)

$0=V_{y}-g*t=v_{0}*sin(\alpha)-g*th\\$

we isolate th (needed to reach the maximum height hmax)

$th = \frac{v_{0}*sin(\alpha)}{g}$

The formula describing vertical distance is:

$y = Vy * t-g* t^{2} / 2$

So, given y = hmax and t = th, we can join those two equations together:

$hmax = Vy* th-g*th^{2}/2$

$hmax =Vo^{2}*sin(\alpha )^{2}/(2*g)$

if we launch a projectile from some initial height h all you need to do is add this initial elevation

$hmax =h+Vo^{2}*sin(\alpha)^{2}/(2*g)$

$hmax =3+100^{2}*sin(45)^{2}/(2 * 32)=81 ft$

Which of the following are true about centripetal force? Check all that apply. A. Without centripetal force, an object cannot ac

Katyanochek1 [597]

B. Friction can be a centripetal force, such as when it keeps a car on the road going around a curve.

C. Gravity can be a centripetal force, such as when it pulls a satellite in its orbit.

Explanation:

The centripetal force is any force that keeps an object moving in circular motion, "pulling" the object towards the centre of the circular trajectory.

Several forces can act as centripetal force. Examples are:

- friction: when a car is going around the curve, is moving by circular motion. The force that keeps the car in circular motion is, in fact, the friction between the tires and the road.

- Gravity: when a satellite moves around the Earth, it is moving by circular motion. The force that keeps the satellite in circular motion is the gravitational attraction between the Earth and the satellite, that pushes the satellite towards the Earth.

The other two options are not correct because:

A) An object can also accelerate if there is no centripetal force (for example, a car speeding up on a straight road is accelerating, but there is no centripetal force since there is no circular motion

D) Centripetal force is not an outward force, since it pushes the object inwards (towards the centre of the trajectory).

Assume it takes 10 J to stretch a spring 10 cm beyond its natural length. Find the work required (in Joules) to stretch the spri

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

W = 30 J

Explanation:

given,

Work done = 10 J

Stretch of spring, x = 0.1 m

We know,

dW = F .dx

we know, F = k x

$\int dW = \int_0^{0.1} k.x dx$

$W = \int_0^{0.1} k.x dx$

$W = k[\dfrac{x^2}{2}]_0^{0.1}$

$10 = k\dfrac{0.1^2}{2}$

k = 2000

now, calculating Work done by the spring when it stretched to 0.2 m from 0.1 m.

$W = \int_{0.1}^{0.2} 2000 x dx$

$W = 2000 [\dfrac{x^2}{2}]_{0.1}^{0.2} dx$

W = 1000 x 0.03

W = 30 J

Hence, work done is equal to 30 J.
