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>

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

First we should define the variables

T=4

Dx = 100

ay=-9.8

ax=0

We can use formula 1 from the BIG 5

x=(v+v0)t/2

By plugging in our variables we can get 100=4(v+v0)/2

Which is 50=v+v0

v=v0 since horizontal acceleration always equals zero

so 2v0 = 50

v0 = 25

Why are different constellations<br> of stars seen during different<br> seasons?
slamgirl [31]
Actually, they're not.  There's a group of stars and constellations arranged
around the pole of the sky that's visible at any time of any dark, clear night,
all year around.  And any star or constellation in the rest of the sky is visible
for roughly 11 out of every 12 months ... at SOME time of the night. 

Constellations appear to change drastically from one season to the next,
and even from one month to the next, only if you do your stargazing around
the same time every night.

Why does the night sky change at various times of the year ?  Here's how to
think about it:

The Earth spins once a day. You spin along with the Earth, and your clock is
built to follow the sun . "Noon" is the time when the sun is directly over your
head, and "Midnight" is the time when the sun is directly beneath your feet.

Let's say that you go out and look at the stars tonight at midnight, when you're
facing directly away from the sun.

In 6 months from now, when you and the Earth are halfway around on the other
side of the sun, where are those same stars ?  Now they're straight in the
direction of the sun.  So they're directly overhead at Noon, not at Midnight.

THAT's why stars and constellations appear to be in a different part of the sky,
at the same time of night on different dates.

An old light bulb draws only 54.3 W, rather than its original 60.0 W, due to evaporative thinning of its filament. By what facto
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The factor of the diameter is 0.95.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power of old light bulb = 54.3 W

Power = 60 W

We know that,

The resistance is inversely proportional to the diameter.

R\propto\dfrac{1}{D}

The power is inversely proportional to the resistance.

P\propto\dfrac{1}{R}

P\propto D^2

We need to calculate the factor of the diameter of the filament reduced

Using relation of power and diameter

\dfrac{P_{i}}{P_{f}}=\dfrac{D_{i}^2}{D_{f}^2}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{D_{i}^2}{D_{f}^2}=\dfrac{54.3}{60}

\dfrac{D_{i}}{D_{f}}=0.95

D_{i}=0.95 D_{f}

Hence, The factor of the diameter is 0.95.

A solenoid is designed to produce a magnetic field of 3.50×10^−2 T at its center. It has a radius of 1.80 cm and a length of 46.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

a. 2143 turns/m

b. 111.5 m

Explanation:

a. The minimum number of turns per unit length (N/L) can be found using the following equation:

B = \frac{\mu_{0}NI}{L}

\frac{N}{L} = \frac{B}{\mu_{0}I} = \frac{3.50 \cdot 10^{-2} T}{4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} Tm/A*13.0 A} = 2143 turns/m

Hence, the minimum number of turns per unit length is 2143 turns/m.

b. The total length of wire is the following:

N = 2143 turns/m*L = 2143 turns/m*46.0 \cdot 10^{-2} m = 986 turns

Since each turn has length 2πr of wire, the total length is:

L_{T} = N*2\pi r = 986 turn*2*\pi*1.80 \cdot 10^{-2} m = 111.5 m

Therefore, the total length of wire required is 111.5 m.

I hope it helps you!
