A body is projected from the ground at an angle of 30° with the horizontal at an initial speed of 128 ft/s. Ignoring air frictio
Elanso [62]

Answer

given,

v = 128 ft/s

angle made with horizontal = 30°

now,

horizontal component of velocity

vx = v cos θ = 128 x cos 30° = 110.85 ft/s

vertical component of velocity

vy = v sin θ = 128 x sin 30° = 64 m/s

time taken to strike the ground

using equation of motion

v = u + at

0 =-64 -32 x t

t = 2 s

total time of flight is equal to

T = 2 t = 2 x 2 = 4 s

b) maximum height

using equation of motion

 v² = u² + 2 a h

 0 = 64² - 2 x 32 x h

 64 h = 64²

  h = 64 ft

c) range

R = v_x × time of flight

R = 110.85 × 4

R = 443.4 ft

As the hot gas from a space shuttle is released downward, what does this cause to happen?
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

D. Upward force on the shuttle

Explanation:

The hot gas from space shuttles released downward causes an upward force on the shuttle and propels it up the more.

  • This hot gas is produced from super cooled oxygen and hydrogen tanks within the shuttle.
  • The upward force on the shuttle allows the craft to escape the gravitational pull of the earth on the shuttle
  • Special level of rapid acceleration must be attained for the shuttle to escape the earth pull.

A book falls of the table and hits the floor. Is work done? Why?​
morpeh [17]

<u>Yes, work is done when a book falls of the table.</u>

This is because:

When the book falls, it's potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.   As it reaches the floor down, this kinetic energy is converted to heat energy and sound energy due to the impact.

When a force is imposed on an object to cause displacement of that object, work is done on that object. For a force to do work on an object, there should be a displacement and this force should cause the displacement. So here, since the book falls from the table and causes the displacement of the book from the table to the floor. It is said that work is done.

Work can be given by the formula:

W = F • d

where F is the force and d is the displacement.
