Vx = 2*cos30 = 1.73m's
Other words:
D = Vo*t = 1.4 * 21 = 31.5m. @ 30 Deg.
Dy = 31.5*sin30 = 15.75 m.

<u>Answer:</u> The horizontal velocity of rover is 1.73 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Horizontal velocity is defined as the velocity of body proceeding in the horizontal direction. This velocity proceeds in the 'x' direction.

Mathematically,

V_x=V_o\cos \theta

where,

V_o = constant velocity of rover = 2 m/s

\cos \theta = cosine function of angle 30°

Putting values in above equation, we get:

V_x=2\times \cos (30^o)\\\\V_x=1.73m/s

Hence, the horizontal velocity of rover is 1.73 m/s

Describe the motion of a swing that requires 6 seconds to complete one cycle. What is its period and the frequency? Round to the
shutvik [7]

Period = 6 seconds and frequency = 0.167Hz .

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have , the motion of a swing that requires 6 seconds to complete one cycle. Period is the amount of time needed to complete one oscillation . And in question it's given that 6 seconds is needed to complete one cycle. Hence ,Period of the motion of a swing is 6 seconds . Frequency is the number of vibrations produced per second and is calculated with the formula of  \frac{1}{t} . SI unit of frequency is Hertz or Hz. We know that time period is 6 seconds so frequency =   \frac{1}{t}

⇒ frequency = \frac{1}{time}

⇒ frequency = \frac{1}{6}

⇒ frequency = 0.167Hz

Therefore , Period = 6 seconds and frequency = 0.167Hz .

One way to cool a gas is to let it expand. When a certain gas under a pressure of 5.00 x 10^6 Pa at 25.°C is allowed to expand t
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The final temperature is T2= 5.35°C

Explanation:

Apply the Gay-lussacs's law we have

\frac{P1}{T1} = \frac{P2}{T2}

P1, initial pressure= 5.00 x 10^6 Pa

T1, initiation temperature= 25.°C

P2, final pressure= 1.07 x 10^6 Pa

T2, final temperature= ?

\frac{5.00 * 10^6}{25} =\frac{1.07 *10^6}{T2} \\

Cross multiplying and making T2 subject of formula we have

T2 =\frac{1.07 *10^6*25}{5.00 * 10^6} \\\\T2= \frac{26.75}{5} \\T2= 5.35

T2= 5.35°C

Which plot correctly shows the velocity of the two balls as a function of time?
yanalaym [24]
The given in this problem is that two balls are thrown at different times, different heights and velocities. A blue ball is thrown upward at a specific velocity at a lower altitude while a red ball is thrown downwards at a specific speed and at a higher height. In this case, we are asked here to describe the graph of the behavior of the balls as a function of time. The x-axis then is time while the y-axis is the velocity of the ball. The blue ball has a quadratic function while the red ball is more or less exponential. See the attached figure for reference.
