Before digital filmmaking, what tool was used to control the speed of movement on the screen after filming?

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The appropriate response is "Optical printer ".

Explanation:

A photographic printer used mostly for optical aberrations, comprised simply of either a camera that captures the frame to expand, minimize, deform, respectively. through magnifying lenses.
A projector that always, as distinct from some kind of touch printer, transferred the image to something like the printing supply.

The light bulb transfers electrical energy into light. What is one type of energy that is also generated that is NOT a desired e

zimovet [89]

The old style (incandescent) light bulb converts more energy
into heat than it does into light. If you're using it mainly as a
source of light, then it's a bummer, and its efficiency is very low.
BUT ... if you're using an incandescent light bulb as a heater, then
its efficiency is much better. It all depends on your point of view.

Erase all the trajectories, and fire the pumpkin vertically again with an initial speed of 14 m/s. As you found earlier, the max

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

$\theta=39.49^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Maximum height of the pumpkin, $H_{max}=9.99\ m$

Initial speed, v = 22 m/s

We need to find the angle with which the pumpkin is fired. the maximum height of the projectile is given by :

$H_{max}=\dfrac{v^2\ sin^2\theta}{2g}$

On rearranging the above equation, to find the angle as :

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2gH_{max}}}{v})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 9.99}}{22})$

$\theta=39.49^{\circ}$

So, the angle with which the pumpkin is fired is 39.49 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.

Complete Question

A football coach walks 18 meters westward, then 12 meters eastward, then 28 meters westward, and finally 14 meters eastward.

From this motion what is the distance covered

What is the magnitude and direction of the displacement

Answer:

$D = 72 \ m$

Magnitude

$d = - 20 \ m$

Direction

West

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The first distance covered westward is $d_w_1 = 18 \ m /tex] The first distance covered eastward is [tex]d_e1 = 12 \ m /tex] The second distance covered westward is [tex]d_w_2 = 28 \ m /tex] The second distance covered eastward is [tex]d_e2 = 14 \ m /tex] Generally the distance covered is mathematically represented as [tex]D = d_w1 + d_w2 + d_e1 + d_e2$

=> $D = 18 + 28 + 12 + 14$

=> $D = 72 \ m$

For the second question eastward is in the direction of the positive x-axis so it would be positive and westward is in the direction of the negative x-axis so it would be negative

The magnitude of the displacement is

$d = -d_w1 -d_w2 + d_e1 + d_e2$

=> $d = -18-28 + 12 + 14$

=> $d = - 20 \ m$

The direction is west
