B. Projectile on cliff (range)

Physics
1 answer:
dimulka [17.4K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 41.28 m

Explanation:

This is a projectile launching exercise, let's find the time it takes to get to the base of the cliff.

Let's start by using trigonometry to find the initial velocity

         cos 25 = v₀ₓ / v₀

         sin 25 = Iv_{oy} / v₀

         v₀ₓ = v₀ cos 25

         v_{oy} = v₀ sin 25

         v₀ₓ = 22 cos 25 = 19.94 m / s

         v_{oy} = 22 sin 25 = 0.0192 m / s

let's use movement on the vertical axis

         y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

     

when reaching the base of the cliff y = 0 and the initial height is y₀ = 21 m

         0 = 21 + 0.0192 t - ½ 9.81 t²

         4.905 t² - 0.0192 t - 21 = 0

         t² - 0.003914 t - 4.2813 =0

we solve the quadratic equation

        t = \frac{ 0.003914\  \pm \sqrt{0.003914^2 + 4 \ 4.2813 }   }{2}

        t = \frac{0.003914 \ \pm 4.13828}{2}

        t₁ = 2.07 s

        t₂ = -2.067 s

since time must be a positive scalar quantity, the correct result is

        t = 2.07 s

now we can look up the distance traveled

         x = v₀ₓ t

         x = 19.94  2.07

         x = 41.28 m

An astronaut goes to Mars to do some experiments. Explain why her mass stays the same but her weight changes.
Snowcat [4.5K]
Because mass does not change from place to place but weight does change from place to place... why? because weight is the amount of gravitational force on an object and mass is the amount of matter in an object. mars has less gravitational force so an object will weigh less than it really weighs there

What is the magnitude of the angular momentum (in kgm2/s) of a 40 g golf ball flying through the air and spinning at 4300 rpm af
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

L=0.0045\ kg-m^2/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a golf ball, m = 40 g = 0.04 kg

Its angular velocity, \omega=4300\ rpm=450.29\ rad/s

The radius of the sphere is 2.5 cm or 0.025 m

We need to find the magnitude of the angular momentum of the ball. It is given by the formula as follows:

L=I\omega

Where I is moment of inertia

For sphere, I=\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2

L=\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2\omega\\\\L=\dfrac{2}{5}\times 0.04\times (0.025)^2\times 450.29\\\\L=0.0045\ kg-m^2/s

So, the magnitude of the angular momentum of the sphere is 0.0045\ kg-m^2/s.

Why is the spectrum of a star called an absorption spectrum?
ladessa [460]
It is called absorption spectrum because a gas of hydrogen will make a line spectrum and if viewed for another angle it would be between a continuum light and a emission line spectrum

A 0.20 kg baseball is traveling at 40 m/s toward the batter. The ball is hit by the bat with a force of 200N, and is
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Time, t = 0.015 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass, m = 0.2kg

Force, F = 200N

Initial velocity, u = 40m/s

Final velocity, v = 25m/s

To find the time;

Ft = m(v - u)

Time, t = m(v - u)/f

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Time, t = 0.2(25 - 40)/200

Time, t = 0.2(-15)/200

Time, t = 3/200

Time, t = 0.015 seconds.

Note: We ignored the negative sign because time can't be negative.

Select the correct term to complete each sentence. If you the wavelength, the electromagnetic radiation energy will double. The
Andrews [41]

Answer:

A) If you halve the wavelength, the electromagnetic radiation energy will double.

B) The energy of the electromagnetic radiation will halve if you halve the wavenumber.

C) When the frequency of the light is doubled, its energy will double.

Explanation:

The function for the light frequency is given as

The energy supplied to each electron is doubled by halving the wavelength, nearly doubling its kinetic energy by two after it is free from the metal. It is important to remember that for a given period of time, the number of electrons ejected will remain constant.

Cheers
