well they are normally bigger than the inner planets, and they also have a bigger distance to go

A gun has a muzzle speed of 150 m/s. Find two angles of elevation that can be used to hit a target 800m away.

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

u = 150 m/s

R = 800 m

The formula for the horizontal range is

$R=\frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}$

where, θ is angle of projection.

$800=\frac{150^{2}Sin2\theta }{9.8}$

Sin2θ = 0.348

2θ = 20.4°

θ = 10.2°

The range is same for the complementary angles.

So, the other angle is 90 - 10.2 = 79.8°

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

d) The image would be dimmer

Explanation:

When inverted image of an object is viewed on a screen from the side facing a converging lens, the

lens focuses the diverging, and blurred light rays from the distance object through refraction of the rays two times.Then the rays is converge by the double bending cl at a focal point behind the lens inorder for a sharper image to be be observed.

But when an opaque card is then introduced to cover only the upper half of the lens then the image becomes dimmer because of the reduction in the light intensity on the screen by 50%

A 35 kg child goes down a playground that is inclined at an angle of 27.5 degrees above the horizontal. Find the acceleration if

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

4.16m/s²

Explanation:

According to Newtons second law;

$\sum Fx = ma_x\\Fm - Ff = ma_x\\W sin\theta - \mu R cos \theta = ma_x\\mg sin\theta - \mu mg cos\theta = ma_x\\$

Fm is the moving force

$\mu$ is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the child and the slide

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

a is the acceleration of the child

Substitute the given values and get the acceleration as shown;

35(9.8)sin27.5 - 0.415(35)(cos27.5) = 35a

158.38-12.88 = 35a

145.49 = 35a

a = 145.49/35

a = 4.16m/s²

Hence the acceleration of the body is 4.16m/s²
