Answer:

Horizontal component of the initial velocity=v ×cos20°

horizontal displacement= 35m

time taken. (t)=35÷(v×cos20°)

vertical component of the initial velocity= v×sin20°

vertical displacement= -5m(since it is opposite to the direction of the initial velocity. )

application of s=ut+1/2at×t. vertically,

-5=vsin20°×t -1/2 gt×t

-5= vsin20×35/vcos20-1/2×10×35×35/(vcos20×vcos20)

simplify further to obtain v and hence find the time taken

Energy is defined as the ability to do work. There are two main forms of energy which are:

  • Potential energy
  • Kinetic energy

Chemical energy energy is a form of potential energy produced through chemical reactions. A car battery is an electrochemical that converts chemical energy into electrical energy for use in the iPod. The battery is made up of electrodes through which electron flows in one direction and current is generated by the potential difference set up

Gravitational energy is a form of potential energy that tends to pull all bodies to the center of the earth. It is an attractive force.

Electrical energy is a form of energy produced through the flow of electric current in a body. As the positive charge moves away from the strong negative plate, an electric current is produced.

Elastic energy is a potential energy stored in elastic bodies that can be stretched and are not plastic.

If the mass of both objects are doubled while the
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The force becomes 16 times what it is now.

Explanation:

The formula for gravitational force is

F = G * m1 * m2 / r^2

When you do what you have described, you are setting a stage that not even the USS Enterprise (Star Trek) can get out of. The increase is huge.

If you double m1 and m2 and don't do anything to r, you've already increased the force by 4 times. (2m1 * 2m2 = 4 * m1 * m2)

But you are not finished. If you 1/2 the distance, you are again increasing the Force by 4 times. 1 / (2r) ^2 = 1/ 4* r^2

Because this is in the denominator, the 1/4 is going to flip to the numerator.

So the total increase is going to be 4 * (4 * m1 * m2) = 16 * m1 * m2.

Think about what that means. If you were out golfing, your drives would be roughly 1/16 times as far as they are now. Also you would be lugging around 16 times your weight around the golf course. My feeling is that you would never finish 5 holes at that rate.

A wave travels at a frequency of 387 Hz. What is<br>the period of the wave?<br>​
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

¹/₃₈₇ second

Explanation:

<em>The period of a wave is the reciprocal of its frequency.</em>

So, simply, the frequency is ¹/₃₈₇ second(s), as that is the reciprocal of the frequency, 387 Hz.
