Answer: a) 60m/s b) 360m c) 180m

Explanation:

Projectile motion occurs when an object launched into space falls freely under the influence of gravity.

If the time of flight (T) = 2Usin(theta)/g where;

U is the velocity of the object

theta is the angle at which the object was thrown

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Given T = 6 seconds

theta= 90°(object launched upwards)

g = 10m/s²

U= ?

Substituting in the formula we have;

6 = Usin90°/10

60 = Usin90°

since sin90° = 1

U = 60m/s

The balls initial velocity is 60m/s.

b) Maximum Height reached (H) = U²sin²theta/g

Given U = 60m/s, theta = 90° g = 10m/s²

H = 60²(sin90°)²/10

H = 3600/10

H = 360m.

The maximum height reached is 360m

c) at maximum height, v = 0

Using v² = u² - 2gh

0 = 60² - 2(10)h

-3600 = -20h

h = 3600/20

h = 180m

The cliff is 180m tall

What is the temperature of a 3.72 mm cube (e=0.288) that radiates 56.6 W?
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The temperature is 2541.799 K

Explanation:

The formula for black body radiation is given by the relation;

Q = eσAT⁴

Where:

Q = Rate of heat transfer 56.6

σ = Stefan-Boltzman constant = 5.67 × 10⁻⁸ W/(m²·k⁴)

A = Surface area of the cube = 6×(3.72 mm)² = 8.3 × 10⁻⁵ m²

e = emissivity = 0.288

T = Temperature

Therefore, we have;

T⁴ = Q/(e×σ×A) = 56.6/(5.67 × 10⁻⁸ × 8.3 × 10⁻⁵ × 0.288) = 4.174 × 10¹⁴ K⁴

T  =  2541.799 K

The temperature = 2541.799 K.

n a level football field a football is projected from ground level. It has speed 9.0 m/sm/s when it is at its maximum height. It
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

T = 0.225 s

Explanation:

The speed of a projectile at the highest point of its motion is the horizontal speed of the projectile. Considering the horizontal motion with negligible air resistance, we can use the following formula:

v_x = RT\\\\T = \frac{v_x}{R}

where,

T = Total time of ball in air = ?

R = Horizontal distance covered = 40 m

v_x = horizontal speed = 9 m/s

Therefore,

T = \frac{9\ m/s}{40\ m}

<u>T = 0.225 s</u>

Describe the difference between a soil horizon and a soil profile
mario62 [17]

Soil profile includes all the sections/ horizons of the vertical soil depth from top to bottom including the transitions from one horizon to another. A soil horizon is a distinct layer/section of soil with more or less the same texture. Therefore, a soil profile is made of soil horizons.
