The path followed by a projectile is called its trajectory. (C)

In the most common school situation ... with gravity but without air resistance, the trajectory of a projectile is the shape of an inverted parabola (nose pointing up). That's the result of constant horizontal velocity and accelerated vertical velocity.

3. The figure below shows the motion of a car. It starts from the origin, O travels 8m

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

i. -4m

ii. 20m

Explanation:

The car travels 8m to the east, then travels 12m to the west which is the opposite of the east. Going west, the car travels 8m back to the origin point and then another 4m due west to make 12m. The displacement from the origin point is -4 (the negative sign shows the direction because displacement is a vector quantity)

Total distance = 8m going east + 8m back to origin + 4m west = 20m

Pluto was first observed in 1930, and its largest moon, Charon, was discovered in 1978. A few years after Charon’s discovery, as

mylen [45]

Answer:

The average densities of both matches the expected density for objects made from water ice.

Explanation:

Charon's density is 1.2 to 1.3 g / cm3, while Pluto's density is 1.8 to 2.1 g / cm3. This was discovered in many researches and measurements of these two celestial bodies, with the objective of understanding them and promoting efficient scientific knowledge.

With the measurements of the average densities between pluto and Charon it was possible to conclude several statements about them. Firstly, it is possible to see that the two formed independently and at different times, in addition to indicating the existence of few rocks in charon, which is consistent with the average density of objects made mostly of water ice.

Ships A and B leave port together. For the next two hours, ship A travels at 40.0 mph in a direction 35.0° west of north while t

kompoz [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Ship A velocity is 40 mph and is traveling 35 west of north

Therefore in 2 hours it will travel $40\times 2=80 miles$

thus its position vector after two hours is

$r_A=-80sin35\hat{i}+80cos35\hat{j}$

similarly B travels with 20 mph and in 2 hours

$=20\times 2=40 miles Its position vector[tex]r_B=40sin80\hat{i}+40cos80\hat{j}$

Thus distance between A and B is

$r_{AB}=\left ( -40sin80-80sin35\right )\hat{i}+\left ( 80cos35-40cos80\right )\hat{j}$

$|r_{AB}|=\sqrt{\left ( -40sin80-80sin35\right )^2+\left ( 80cos35-40cos80\right )^2}$

$|r_{AB}|=103.45 miles$

Velocity of A

$v_A=-40sin35\hat{i}+40cos35\hat{j}$

Velocity of B

$v_B=20sin80\hat{i}+20cos80\hat{j}$

Velocity of A w.r.t B

$v_{AB}=v_A-v_B$

$v_{AB}=\left ( -20sin80-40sin35\right )\hat{i}+\left ( 40cos35-20cos80\right )\hat{j}$

An object is moving with the speed of light around the Earth. How much time will it take to complete one round trip along the eq

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

0.14 seconds

Explanation:

The speed of light in vacuum is approximately 3.0*10^8. The distance that would be covered by the object would be equivalent to the circumference of the cross-section of the earth on the equator.

Circumference = 2 $\pi$ *6400000 =4.02*10^7

Time = distance/speed = 4.2*10^7 / 3.0*10^8 =0.14s
