Answer:

Explanation:

This is the equation that defines the power consumed by an electrical circuit. It is normally defined as the product of the voltage applied (V) times the current (I) that runs through it. And in the case of a resistive circuit (resistors in the circuit totaling a certain resistance R), one can use Ohm's law to replace the voltage by the product of the current (I) times the resistance (R), obtaining then the square of the current:

$P=V*I=(I*R)*I=I^2 * R$

From the edge of a cliff, a 0.41 kg projectile is launched with an initial kinetic energy of 1430 J. The projectile's maximum up

NemiM [27]

Answer:

v₀ₓ = 63.5 m/s

v₀y = 54.2 m/s

Explanation:

First we find the net launch velocity of projectile. For that purpose, we use the formula of kinetic energy:

K.E = (0.5)(mv₀²)

where,

K.E = initial kinetic energy of projectile = 1430 J

m = mass of projectile = 0.41 kg

v₀ = launch velocity of projectile = ?

Therefore,

1430 J = (0.5)(0.41)v₀²

v₀ = √(6975.6 m²/s²)

v₀ = 83.5 m/s

Now, we find the launching angle, by using formula for maximum height of projectile:

h = v₀² Sin²θ/2g

where,

h = height of projectile = 150 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

θ = launch angle

Therefore,

150 m = (83.5 m/s)²Sin²θ/(2)(9.8 m/s²)

Sin θ = √(0.4216)

θ = Sin⁻¹ (0.6493)

θ = 40.5°

Now, we find the components of launch velocity:

x- component = v₀ₓ = v₀Cosθ = (83.5 m/s) Cos(40.5°)

<u>v₀ₓ = 63.5 m/s</u>

y- component = v₀y = v₀Sinθ = (83.5 m/s) Sin(40.5°)

A vector points -43.0 units

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find the direction of this vector we need o find the angle that has a tangent of the y-component over the x-component:

$tan^{-1}(\frac{11.1}{-43.0})=-14.5$ but since we are in Q2 we have to add 180 degrees to that angle giving us 165.5 degrees
