How is a projectile different from an object in free fall

1 answer:

aksik [14]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Projectile Motion. Projectile motion is different than free fall: it involves two dimensions instead of one. ... Balls traveling in two dimensions, only one of which experiences acceleration, require two sets of equations: one set for the x-direction and the other for the y-direction.

13. What's most intriguing about Titan's atmosphere?

sineoko [7]

Answer: There is an unsolved mystery surrounding Titan's atmosphere: Because methane is broken down by sunlight, scientists believe there is another source that replenishes what is lost. One potential source of methane is volcanic activity, but this has yet to be confirmed.

The intensity at distance from a spherically symmetric sound source is 100 W/m2. What is the intensity at five times this distan

ss7ja [257]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to intensity as a function of power and area.

Intensity is defined to be the power per unit area carried by a wave. Power is the rate at which energy is transferred by the wave. In equation form, intensity I is

$I = \frac{P}{A}$

The area of a sphere is given by

$A = 4\pi r^2$

So replacing we have to

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2}$

Since the question tells us to find the proportion when

$r_1 = 5r_2 \rightarrow \frac{r_2}{r_1} = \frac{1}{5}$

So considering the two intensities we have to

$I_1 = \frac{P_1}{4\pi r_1^2}$

$I_2 = \frac{P_2}{4\pi r_2^2}$

The ratio between the two intensities would be

$\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{ \frac{P_1}{4\pi r_1^2}}{\frac{P_2}{4\pi r_2^2}}$

The power does not change therefore it remains constant, which allows summarizing the expression to

$\frac{I_1}{I_2}=(\frac{r_2}{r_1})^2$

Re-arrange to find $I_2$

$I_2 = I_1 (\frac{r_1}{r_2})^2$

$I_2 = 100*(\frac{1}{5})^2$

$I_2 = 4W/m^2$

Therefore the intensity at five times this distance from the source is $4W/m^2$

A 1 530-kg automobile has a wheel base (the distance between the axles) of 2.70 m. The automobile's center of mass is on the cen

NeTakaya

Answer:

Force on front axle = 6392.85 N

Force on rear axle = 8616.45 N

Explanation:

As we know that the weight of the car is balanced by the normal force on the front wheel and rear wheels

Now we know that

$F_1 + F_2 = W$

$F_1 + F_2 = (1530\times 9.81)$

$F_1 + F_2 = 15009.3 N$

now we know that distance between the axis is 2.70 m and centre of mass is 1.15 m behind front axle

so we can write torque balance about its center of mass

$F_1(1.15) = F_2(2.70 - 1.15)$

$F_1 = 1.35 F_2$

now from above equation

$F_2 + 1.35F_2 = 15009.3$

now we have

$F_2 = 6392.85 N$

now the other force is given as

$F_1 = 8616.45 N$
