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

A curent-carrying 2.0-cm long segment of wire is inside a long solenoid adius - 40 cm - 800 turns/m, current - 50 mA). The wire
klasskru [66]

Answer:

The value is  F_{max}  = 12 \muN

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  length is  l = 2.0 \  cm  =  0.02 \  m

     The radius of the the solenoid is r =40 \ cm

     The number of turns per meter is  N  =  800 \  turns / m

     The current through the solenoid  is  I  =  50 \  mA  =  50*10^{-3} \  A

      The  current through the segment is  I_s  =  12 \  A

   Generally the magnetic force is mathematically  represented as

    F  = B  *  I_s l sin(\theta)

At maximum \theta =  90^o

So  

   F_{max}  = B  *  I_s l

Here B is the magnetic field is mathematically represented as  

      B  =  \mu_o  * N  * I

Here  \mu_o is the permeability of free space with value

    \mu_o  =   4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2

So  

      B  =    4\pi * 10^{-7}  * 800  *50*10^{-3}

=>    B  =   5.0272 *10^{-5}   \  T

So

     F_{max}  =  5.0272 *10^{-5}  * 12 *  0.02

    F_{max}  = 1.2 *10^{-5}

      F_{max}  = 12 \muN

How did the discovery of eris force astronomers to reconsider the definition of planet?
kogti [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

They had demoted Pluto on the basis of the discovery of Eris. They also discovered that Eris had a moon. It was thought to be much bigger than Pluto. That turned out not to be true. So having accepted Eris as a planet, they had to consider carefully what to do about Pluto. It has a gravitational constant of 0.82 m/s^2 which is 8.4% of that of our gravitational pull. and slightly more than Pluto.

Later data showed that these two  objects in space were more like twins and that's what shook up the definition of a planet. You can't demote one and not the other.

A segment is divided into two parts having lengths in the ratio of 5:3. If the difference between the length of the parts is 6",
Triss [41]

Answer:

15"

Explanation:

Let x be the length of the longer part, then the length of the shorter part is 3x/5, or also x - 6

therefore we have the following equation:

3x/5 = x - 6

We can multiply both sides by 5

3x = 5x - 6*5

2x = 30

x = 30/2 = 15"

So the length of the longer part is 15"

Se pune<br>Numerical problems<br>Convert 100ºC to Kelvin scale​
IgorC [24]

Answer:

373 K

Explanation:

To convert from °C to kelvin, you add the value to 273

Therefore,

100°C = (100+273)K

= 373K
