Answer:

V_y = 16.44\ m/s

V_y = 7.32\ m/s<em />

Explanation:

Given

\theta = 24

Velocity\ (V) = 18m/s

Required

Determine the vertical and horizontal components

The vertical (Vy) and horizontal (Vx) components is calculated as thus:

V_x = Vcos\theta

V_y = Vsin\theta

Calculating Vertical Components:

V_y = Vsin\theta

V_y = 18 * sin24

V_y = 18 * 0.40673664307

V_y = 7.32125957526

V_y = 7.32\ m/s<em> --- Approximated</em>

Calculating Horizontal Components:

V_x = Vcos\theta

V_x = 18 * cos24

V_x = 18 * 0.91354545764

V_x = 16.4438182375

V_x = 16.44\ m/s <em>--- Approximated</em>

Suppose you are in an elevator. As the elevator starts upward, its speed will increase. During this time when the elevator is mo
kkurt [141]

Answer:increased

Explanation:

It is given that elevator speed is increasing while moving upward i.e.its acceleration is increasing .

This causes the apparent to be increased if measured using weighing machine.

considering upward direction to be positive

N-mg=ma

N=m(g+a)

where N=Normal reaction=Apparent weight

a=acceleration of Elevator

thus you feel as if your weight is increased.

What is meant by a colored shadow? If "shadow" means
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Explanation:

Red, green, and blue are therefore called additive primaries of light. ... When you block two lights, you see a shadow of the third color—for example, block the red and green lights and you get a blue shadow. If you block only one of the lights, you get a shadow whose color is a mixture of the other two.

First, your definition of a shadow is incorrect. A shadow is an area that receives less light than its surroundings because a specific source of light is blocked by whatever is "casting" the shadow. Your example of being outside reveals this. The sky and everything around you in the environment (unless you are surrounded by pitch black buildings) is sending more than enough light into your shadow, to reveal the pen to your eyes. The sky itself diffuses the sunlight everywhere, and the clouds reflect plenty of light when they are not directly in front of the Sun.

If you are indoors and have two light bulbs, you can throw two shadows at the same time, possibly of different darknesses, depending on the brightness of the light bulbs.

It can take a lot of work to get a room pitch black. One little hole or crack in some heavy window curtains can be enough to illuminate the room. There are very few perfectly dark shadows.

Do balanced forces change an objects motion
meriva

If the group of all forces acting on an object is balanced,
then the effect of all of them is the same as if there were
no forces at all on the object.  In that case, the object
continues moving in a straight line at a constant speed.
