Find the horizontal components vcos30 ...one goes right and one goes left so they cancel each other.
Find vertical components vsin30.....there are two of them.... so 2vcos30....hey presto... resultant velocity = 2vCos30

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

It is possible for sedimentary rocks to be converted to igneous rocks. Under conditions of high temperature and pressure, sedimentary rocks can be broken down into igneous rock by melting this rock type.

When the rock is broken down, it forms melt which when cooled and solidifies will form igneous rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from the breaking down of pre-existing rocks through the action of weathering, erosion and sediment transportation. Within a basin, the sediments are compacted and lithified.

When this is subjected to intense pressure and temperature, the rock hardens and might further break down to melt.

Two identical bullets are used. Both are released at the same height - one fired out of a gun, the other is dropped. Ignoring ai
irina [24]

Answer:

Both bullets will hit the ground at the same time.

Explanation:

Let's only analyze the vertical problem.

Any object that is not in the floor or resting in some site is being affected by the gravitational force (remember that we are ignoring air resistance)

Then the acceleration of this object will be equal to the gravitational acceleration:

a = -9.8m/s^2

Where the minus sign is because this acceleration goes down.

To get the velocity equation we need to integrate over time, we will get:

v(t) = ( -9.8m/s^2)*t + v0

Where v0 is the initial vertical velocity.

To get the position equation we need to integrate over time again, we will get:

p(t) = (1/2)*( -9.8m/s^2)*t^2 + v0*t + H

Where H is the initial height.

p(t) = (-4.9 m/s^2)*t^2 + v0*t + H

The object will hit the ground when p(t) = 0

Then we need to solve for t the next equation:

(-4.9 m/s^2)*t^2 + v0*t + H = 0

Notice that the only things we need to know are:

H = initial height (we know that is the same for both bullets)

v0 = initial vertical velocity (also is the same for both bullets)

Notice that the horizontal velocity does not affect this equation, then we will get the same value of t for the dropped bullet and for the fired bullet.

This means that both bullets will hit the ground at the same time.

Scientists want to place a telescope on the moon to improve their view of distant planets. The telescope weighs 200 pounds on Ea
Maru [420]

Answer:

33,02 lb

Explanation:

g_m ≈ 1,62 m/s2

g ≈ 9,81 m/s2

m = 200 lb

m_m = m * g_m / m = 200 * 1,62 / 9,81 = 33,02 lb

Pavel [41]

Answer:

vb = 22.13 m/s

Explanation:

ma = 124 kg

mb = 13 kg

vi = 2.10 m/s

According to the property of conservation of momentum, and considering that, initially, both the astronaut and the bag moved together at 2.10 m/s:

(m_a+m_b)v_i=m_av_a+m_bv_b

The minimum final velocity of the bag, vb, the will keep the astronaut from drifting away forever occurs when va = 0:

(124+13)2.10=124*0+13v_b\\v_b=\frac{287.7}{13}\\v_b= 22.13\ m/s

The minimum final velocity of the bag is 22.13 m/s.
