Answer:

v₀ₓ = 63.5 m/s

v₀y = 54.2 m/s

Explanation:

First we find the net launch velocity of projectile. For that purpose, we use the formula of kinetic energy:

K.E = (0.5)(mv₀²)

where,

K.E = initial kinetic energy of projectile = 1430 J

m = mass of projectile = 0.41 kg

v₀ = launch velocity of projectile = ?

Therefore,

1430 J = (0.5)(0.41)v₀²

v₀ = √(6975.6 m²/s²)

v₀ = 83.5 m/s

Now, we find the launching angle, by using formula for maximum height of projectile:

h = v₀² Sin²θ/2g

where,

h = height of projectile = 150 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

θ = launch angle

Therefore,

150 m = (83.5 m/s)²Sin²θ/(2)(9.8 m/s²)

Sin θ = √(0.4216)

θ = Sin⁻¹ (0.6493)

θ = 40.5°

Now, we find the components of launch velocity:

x- component = v₀ₓ = v₀Cosθ  = (83.5 m/s) Cos(40.5°)

<u>v₀ₓ = 63.5 m/s</u>

y- component = v₀y = v₀Sinθ  = (83.5 m/s) Sin(40.5°)

<u>v₀y = 54.2 m/s</u>

Lilit [14]

Answer:

Accuracy

Explanation:

I think accuracy is more important. When it comes to vital organs in the body, the exactness of getting the measurement is paramount. Accuracy deals with getting very close, almost exact you may say, to a known standard. Precision on the other hand, deals with how easy a measurement can be retaken, reproduced or remade, irrespective of how far or close they are from the accepted norm.

From this, we can agree that precision neglects the most important factor, closeness or say, exactness. Precision isn't bothered by it. And while that can be excused in a few instances, it certainly can not be permitted when it comes to life, or organs of the body

What is necessary for a substance to be a conductor of electricity?
Stella [2.4K]
The main requirement for a good conductor of electricity is to have a lot of valence electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons of the outer shells of atoms not bound with other atoms (for example through covalent bounds). These electrons are "free to escape" as soon as an electric field with enough intensity is applied to the material, and therefore these electrons will be free to move in the material producing an electric current.

Similarities and differences between high pitch and low pitch
umka2103 [35]
You can hear a difference between these two sounds. That is because their pitch isdifferent. Pitch depends on the frequency of a sound wave. ... High sounds have highfrequencies and low sounds have lowfrequencies.
