Answer:

Explanation:

Average acceleration

= (final velocity - initial velocity) /time

= (50-0)km/h /30 s

= 50 * 1000 / 3600 m/s /s

= 13.89 m/s^2

Which of these common substances is a heterogeneous mixture?

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

(C) If the composition of a mixture appears uniform no matter where you sample it, is homogeneous; sand on a beach *IS HETEROGENEOUS* because when you look at it up close, you can identify different types of particles, such as sand, shells, and organic matter.

Explanation:

(A) Pure Water is a collection of solely H2O molecules therefore Pure Water is classified as a *Compound*.

(B) Table Salt is NOT a heterogeneous mixture because the particles of salt can't be separated, and it is a *Pure Substance*.

(D) Maple Syrup is a homogeneous mixture because the solutes are fully dissolved and not easily identified. In other words, Maple Syrup is uniform throughout.

You launch a cannonball at an angle of 35° and an initial velocity of 36 m/s (assume y = y₁=

velikii [3]

Answer:

Approximately $4.2\; {\rm s}$ (assuming that the projectile was launched at angle of $35^{\circ}$ above the horizon.)

Explanation:

Initial vertical component of velocity:

$\begin{aligned}v_{y} &= v\, \sin(35^{\circ}) \\ &= (36\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})\, (\sin(35^{\circ})) \\ &\approx 20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}$ .

The question assumed that there is no drag on this projectile. Additionally, the altitude of this projectile just before landing $y_{1}$ is the same as the altitude $y_{0}$ at which this projectile was launched: $y_{0} = y_{1}$ .

Hence, the initial vertical velocity of this projectile would be the exact opposite of the vertical velocity of this projectile right before landing. Since the initial vertical velocity is $20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ (upwards,) the vertical velocity right before landing would be $(-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})$ (downwards.) The change in vertical velocity is:

$\begin{aligned}\Delta v_{y} &= (-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - (20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ &= -41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}$ .

Since there is no drag on this projectile, the vertical acceleration of this projectile would be $g$ . In other words, $a = g = -9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}$ .

Hence, the time it takes to achieve a (vertical) velocity change of $\Delta v_{y}$ would be:

$\begin{aligned} t &= \frac{\Delta v_{y}}{a_{y}} \\ &= \frac{-41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}}{-9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}} \\ &\approx 4.2\; {\rm s} \end{aligned}$ .

Hence, this projectile would be in the air for approximately $4.2\; {\rm s}$ .

A block is pulled across a flat surface at a constant speed using a force of 50 newtons at an angle of 60 degrees above the hori

vladimir2022 [97]

The magnitude of the friction force is 25 N

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we just have to analyze the forces acting on the block along the horizontal direction. We have:

The horizontal component of the pulling force, $F cos \theta$ , where F = 50 N is the magnitude and $\theta=60^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the horizontal; this force acts in the forward direction
The force of friction, $F_f$ , acting in the backward direction

According to Newton's second law, the net force acting on the block in the horizontal direction must be equal to the product between the mass of the block and its acceleration:

$\sum F_x = ma_x$
