Answer:
(C) greater than zero but less than 45° above the horizontal
Explanation:
The range of a projectile is given by R = v²sin2θ/g.
For maximum range, sin2θ = 1 ⇒ 2θ = sin⁻¹(1) = 90°
2θ = 90°
θ = 90°/2 = 45°
So the maximum horizontal distance R is in the range 0 < θ < 45°, if θ is the angle above the horizontal.
Q=mc(t2-t1)
Q=2.06kg x specific heat of oil(191-23)
Q=2.06×c×168
Q=143.62q
Answer:
(C) 40m/s
Explanation:
Given;
spring constant of the catapult, k = 10,000 N/m
compression of the spring, x = 0.5 m
mass of the launched object, m = 1.56 kg
Apply the principle of conservation of energy;
Elastic potential energy of the catapult = kinetic energy of the target launched.
¹/₂kx² = ¹/₂mv²
where;
v is the target's velocity as it leaves the catapult
kx² = mv²
v² = kx² / m
v² = (10000 x 0.5²) / (1.56)
v² = 1602.56
v = √1602.56
v = 40.03 m/s
v ≅ 40 m/s
Therefore, the target's velocity as it leaves the spring is 40 m/s
Answer:
The temperature reported by a thermometer is never precisely the same as its surroundings
Explanation:
In this experiment to determine the specific heat of a material the theory explains that when a heat interchange takes place between two bodies that were having different temperatures at the start, the quantity of heat the warmer body looses is equal to that gained by the cooler body to reach the equilibrium temperature. <u>This is true only if no heat is lost or gained from the surrounding.</u> If heat is gained or lost from the surrounding environment, the temperature readings by the thermometer will be incorrect. The experimenter should therefore keep in mind that for accurate results, the temperature recorded by the thermometer is similar to that of the surrounding at the start of the experiment and if it differs then note that there is either heat gained or lost to the environment.
