This time, William Tell is shooting at an apple that hangs on a tree (Fig. 3.32). The apple is a horizontal distance of 20.0 m

away and at a height of 4.00 m above the ground. If the arrow is released from a height of 1.00 m above the ground and hits the apple 0.500 s later, what is the arrow’s initial velocity?

Answer:

The initial arrow's velocity is 40,9 m/s at 11.9° from the horizontal

Explanation:

<em>In order to find the inital velocity we need to determine its components and the angle that the arrow is launched at.</em>

<em>For horizontal component, we will have:</em>

<em>ν cos(θ)t = x ⇒ cos(θ) =  x/νt</em>

<em>For vertical component we will have:</em>

<em>h= v sin(θ)t ₋ gt²÷ 2 ⇒ sin (θ) = h + gt²÷2/νt</em>

<em>From the two equations we got, after noting that the vertical displacement is 3m, we can calculate </em>

<em>tan(θ) = h +gt²÷2/νt/ x÷νt = h+ gt²÷2/x = 3+ 9.8.0.5²÷2/20 = 0.21125</em>

<em>Now we can calculate θ = tan⁻¹(0.21125) ≈ 11.9°</em>

<em>Now that we know the angle we can subtitute at any of the expressions for the two components of the velocity . Let's do this subsitution at the horizontal component:</em>

<em>ν cos(θ)t= x =ν = x/tcos(θ)= 20/ 0.5cos(11.9) ≈ 40.9 m/s.</em>

Which of the following is a balanced chemical equation? MgF 2 + Li 2CO 3 ⟶ MgCO 3 + LiF 2Al + 6HCl ⟶ 3H 2 + AlCl 3 P 4 + 3O 2 ⟶
IRISSAK [1]

P₄ + 3O₂ ⟶ 2P₂O₃

Explanation:

A balanced equation is any equation that complies with the law of conservation of matter and mass.

The law of conservation of matter states that "in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed but simply rearranges. ".

  This suggests that the total number of atoms on both reactant and product sides must be the same in a balanced chemical equation. Also, the same atoms are found on both sides of a chemical equation with no additional or external species.

Now let us check if the equation is conserved:

                              P₄ + 3O₂ ⟶ 2P₂O₃

Atoms                      reactant                                product

P                                    4                                              4

O                                    6                                              6

We see that we have equal number of atoms on both sides. The equation is balanced.
