Answer:

OC. blizzard

Explanation:

In the United States, the National Weather Service defines a blizzard as a severe snow storm characterized by strong winds causing blowing snow that results in low visibilities. ... A severe blizzard has winds over 72 km/h (45 mph), near zero visibility, and temperatures of −12 °C (10 °F) or lower.

Answer:

F = 120 N

Explanation:

Force x distance = energy

The bike has energy 1/2 . 80 . 6^2 = 1440 J

You are looking at an example of not reading the question properly.

Impulse = Force . time = change in momentum

F . 4 = 80 .6

F = 120 N

A projectile is launched at ground level with an initial speed of 54.5 m/s at an angle of 35.0° above the horizontal. It strikes

Alchen [17]

<h2>Answer: x=125m, y=48.308m</h2>

Explanation:

This situation is a good example of the projectile motion or parabolic motion, in which we have two components: x-component and y-component. Being their main equations to find the position as follows:

x-component:

$x=V_{o}cos\theta t$ (1)

Where:

$V_{o}=54.5m/s$ is the projectile's initial speed

$\theta=35\°$ is the angle

$t=2.80s$ is the time since the projectile is launched until it strikes the target

$x$ is the final horizontal position of the projectile (the value we want to find)

y-component:

$y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}$ (2)

Where:

$y_{o}=0$ is the initial height of the projectile (we are told it was launched at ground level)

$y$ is the final height of the projectile (the value we want to find)

$g=9.8m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

Having this clear, let's begin with x (1):

$x=(54.5m/s)cos(35\°)(2.8s)$ (3)

$x=125m$ (4) This is the horizontal final position of the projectile

For y (2):

$y=0+(54.5m/s)sin(35\°)(2.8s)-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})(2.8s)^{2}}{2}$ (5)

$y=48.308m$ (6) This is the vertical final position of the projectile

When an oxygen atom forms an ion, it gains two electrons. What is the electrical charge of the oxygen ion?

Mashutka [201]

-2. This is because it is gaining electrons. Electrons are negative. Therefore it is a negative charge.

Water ice has a density of 0.91 g/cm2, so it will float in liquid water. Imagine you have a cube of ice, 10 cm on a side. a. Wha

Reptile [31]

Answer:

(i) W = 8.918 N

(ii) $V = 9.1 \times 10^{-4} m^3$

(iii) d = 9.1 cm

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that weight of cube is given as

$W = mg$

$W = \rho V g$

here we know that

$\rho = 0.91 g/cm^3$

$Volume = L^3$

$Volume = 10^3 = 1000 cm^3$

now the mass of the ice cube is given as

$m = 0.91 \times 1000 = 910 g$

now weight is given as

$W = 0.910 \times 9.8 = 8.918 N$

Part b)

Weight of the liquid displaced must be equal to weight of the ice cube

Because as we know that force of buoyancy = weight of the of the liquid displaced

$W_{displaced} = 8.918 N$

So here volume displaced is given as

$\rho_{water}Vg = 8.918$

$1000(V)9.8 = 8.918$

$V = 9.1 \times 10^{-4} m^3$

Part c)

Let the cube is submerged by distance "d" inside water

So here displaced water weight is given as

$W = \rho_{water} (L^2 d) g$

$8.918 = 1000(0.10^2 \times d) 9.8$

$d = 0.091 m$

so it is submerged by d = 9.1 cm inside water
