The gravitational force between a mass and the Earth is the object'sweight. Mass is considered a measure of an object's inertia, and its weight is the force exerted on the object in a gravitational field. On the surface of the Earth, the two forces are related by the acceleration due to gravity: Fg = mg.

A football is place kicked with a velocity having a vertical component of 12 m/s and a horizontal component of 6 m/s. Find the r
SSSSS [86.1K]

The velocity is given by:

V = √(Vx²+Vy²)

V = velocity, Vx = horizontal velocity, Vy = vertical velocity

Given values:

Vx = 6m/s, Vy = 12m/s

Plug in and solve for V:

V = √(6²+12²)

V = 13.42m/s

Now find the direction:

θ = tan⁻¹(Vy/Vx)

θ = angle of velocity off horizontal, Vy = vertical velocity, Vx = horizontal velocity

Given values:

Vx = 6m/s, Vy = 12m/s

Plug in and solve for θ:

θ = tan⁻¹(12/6)

θ = 63.4°

The resultant velocity is 13.42m/s at an angle of 63.4° off the horizontal.

A 7950-kg railroad car travels alone on a level frictionless track with a constant speed of 15.0 m/s . A 2950-kg load, initially
Alchen [17]

The new speed of car is 10.9 m/s

<h3 />

According to the principle of momentum conservation, momentum is only modified by the action of forces as they are outlined by Newton's equations of motion; momentum is never created nor destroyed inside a problem domain.

Mass of the railroad car, m₁ = 7950 kg

Mass of the load, m₂ = 2950 kg

It can be assumed as the speed of the car, u₁ = 15 m/s

Initially, it is at rest, u₂ = 0

Let v is the speed of the car. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1 + m_2) v

v =\frac{m_1u_1}{m_1+m_2}

v = \frac{7950*15}{7950+2950}

v= 10.9 m/s

Therefore, the new speed of care is 10.9 m/s

djyliett [7]
The correct letter of the answer would be letter b, Bob is using his personal knowledge of the local area to make his forecast. It does not look like he's ignoring the computer for he's been the top meteorologist for ten years, meaning to say, he would use his knowledge about the local area and tell them his knowledge about the weather.
