Answer:

241.24m

Explanation:

The height at which the shell explodes will be at the maximum height. In projectile motion, maximum height formula is expressed as:

H = u²sin²θ/2g

u is the initial speed = 70m/s

θ the angle of launch = 75°

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

Substitute the values into the formula and get H

H = 70²(sin75°)/2(9.81)

H = 4900sin75°/19.62

H = 4900*0.9659/19.62

H = 4733.037/19.62

H = 241.24m

Hence the height at which the shell explodes is 241.24m

Acceleration occurs whenever an ___________________ force acts on an object.
leonid [27]
Acceleration occurs whenever the forces on an object are unbalanced.

It's the group of forces on the object that's either balanced or unbalanced.
There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force".

Describe why cars are inefficient machines in terms of thermodynamics.
Alina [70]

Cars are the mechanical device which convert chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, the engine used in the automobiles car are very inefficient, they can only convert 30-40% of chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, since thermodynamics is the branch of science that deals with the conversion of energy, thus due to poor conversion rate of chemical energy into mechanical energy, cars are known as inefficient machine.

This is a two part question: What is the force of friction acting on a 100 kg steel slab at rest on a steel floor?
Crazy boy [7]
1) 0N... friction opposes the motion of an object, since the block is at rest there is no motion thus no friction

2) F=ma
= (5.5kg)(30m/s)
=165 N

Calculate the average speed in metres per second from Glasgow to Edinburgh
mariarad [96]
This is the same question as the one previously but with more details, so I will just use my previous answer.

1800 to 1820 is 20 minutes.1830 to 1838 is 8 minutes.1840 to 1905 is 25 minutes.
The total time travelled is 20+8+25 = 53 minutes = 3180 seconds.
The distance between Glasgow and Edinburgh is 28 + 12 + 34 = 74 km = 74000 m.

So, the average speed is 74000m/3180s = 23.27 m/s (4 s.f.)
