A World War II bomber flies horizontally over level terrain, with a speed of 287 m/s relative to the ground and at an altitude o
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: 7.38 km

Explanation: The attachment shows the illustration diagram for the question.

The range of the bomb's motion as obtained from the equations of motion,

H = u(y) t + 0.5g(t^2)

U(y) = initial vertical component of velocity = 0 m/s

That means t = √(2H/g)

The horizontal distance covered, R,

R = u(x) t = u(x) √(2H/g)

Where u(x) = the initial horizontal component of the bomb's velocity = 287 m/s, H = vertical height at which the bomb was thrown = 3.24 km = 3240 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s2

R = 287 √(2×3240/9.8) = 7380 m = 7.38 km

An astronaut working with many tools some distance away from a spacecraft is stranded when the "maneuvering unit" malfunctions.
N76 [4]

Answer:

He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.

When Missourians carve their initials into the bark of a tree, the damage leaves the tree open to ____________________.
sasho [114]

Answer:

In fact, carving letters into a tree probably won't hurt it. ... In general, the tree will compartmentalize the wound and it will heal over. The initials that remain visible are essentially scar tissue, permanent scar tissue.

Explanation:

Unfortunately, when carving into the trunk of a tree the blade of a knife often penetrates the outer bark and cuts into the inner bark. ... In cases that the phloem is damaged all the way around the trunk (in a ring for example), the tree will slowly and eventually starve to death.

What do we mean when we say that two light rays striking a screen are in phase with each other? What do we mean when we say that
galina1969 [7]

Answer: When the electric field due to one is a maximum, the electric field due to the other is also a maximum, and this relation is maintained as time passes. They alternatively reinforce and cancel each other.

Explanation:

In a wave, the phase, is an arbitrary time reference, used to locate a given point of the wave in time, within a cycle.

Two waves can travel at the same speed, or even have the same wavelength, but this is not enough to be sure that at a given point in time, both waves will be in their maximum, as it only can be determined from the phase of the waves.

So, only when the waves reach at the same point in time at the same amplitude, we can say that they arrive in phase, in a constructive interference.
