Part A

Free fall motion
h = 3.1 m

Equation: Vf = √(2gh) = √(2*9.8 m/s^2 * 3.1 m) = 7.8 m/s

That is the only part in the question.

Drawing a shows a displacement vector (450.0 m along the y axis). In this x, y coordinate system the scalar components are Ax 0
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

x ’= 368.61 m,  y ’= 258.11 m

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must find the projections of the point on the new vectors of the rotated system  θ = 35º

            x’= R cos 35

            y’= R sin 35

           

The modulus vector can be found using the Pythagorean theorem

            R² = x² + y²

            R = 450 m

we calculate

            x ’= 450 cos 35

            x ’= 368.61 m

            y ’= 450 sin 35

            y ’= 258.11 m

A 4400 W motor is used to do work. If the motor is used for 200 s, how much work could it do? (Power: P = W/t)
guajiro [1.7K]
So if p=w/t
then 4400=(w)(200)
so you would multiply 4440•200 and get 880,000

A large bottle contains 150 L of water, and is open to the atmosphere. If the bottle has a flat bottom with an area of 2 ft, cal
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Total pressure exerted at bottom =  119785.71 N/m^2

Explanation:

given data:

volume of water in bottle = 150 L = 0.35 m^3

Area of bottle = 2 ft^2

density of water = 1000 kg/m

Absolute pressure on bottom of bottle will be sum of atmospheric pressure and pressure due to water

Pressure due to water P = F/A

F, force exerted by water = mg

m, mass of water = density * volume

                             =  1000*0.350 = 350 kg

F  = 350*9.8 = 3430 N

A = 2 ft^2 = 0.1858 m^2  

so, pressure P = 3430/ 0.1858 = 18460.71 N/m^2

Atmospheric pressure

At sea level atmospheric pressure is 101325 Pa

Total pressure exerted at bottom  = 18460.71 + 101325 = 119785.71 N/m^2

Total pressure exerted at bottom =  119785.71 N/m^2

A 1,600 kg car traveling north at 10.0 m/s crashes into a 1,400 kg car traveling east at 15 m/s at an unexpectedly icy intersect
tigry1 [53]
Here it is the use of vector and conservation of momentum !

so,
√(16^2+21^2) ×1000= 3000 v
v =8.8 m/s

so answer is B !

if you have any doubt, you can ask ! just comment !

Two 4.952 cm by 4.952 cm plates that form a parallel-plate capacitor are charged to +/- 0.576 nC. What is the electric field str
horrorfan [7]

In order to solve this question, we will need to know the E-field of a capacitor

E = sigma/epsilon naught

To find sigma (charge density), we will need to divide the total charge by the area

sigma = (.576 x 10^-9)/(4.952x10^-2)^2 = 2.34 x 10^-7

E = 2.34 x 10^-7/ (8.85x10^-12) = 26541.04 V/m
