Why does a projectile fired along a horizontal not follow a straight path?​

Physics
1 answer:
Stella [2.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: A projectile which is fired horizontally is being constantly acted upon by acceleration due to gravity, acting vertically downwards. Hence, it does not follow a straight line path. Also Why a projectile fixed along the horizontal not follow a straight line path? Because the projectile fired horizontally is constantly acts upon by acceleration due to gravity acting vertically downwards.

What is the mathematical relationship between wavelength and velocity?
gavmur [86]

Answer:A wave has a wavelength λ, which is the distance between adjacent identical parts of the wave. The wave velocity and the wavelength are related to the wave's frequency and period by vw=λT or vw=fλ.

4. The atmosphere is composed of about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% argon. Typical atmospheric pressure in Boulder, Colorado
photoshop1234 [79]

<u>ANS</u>

<u>Step</u> <u>1</u> :Explanation of required formula.

According to Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures, the partial pressure of a component of a gaseous mixture depends on the mole ratio of said component and the total pressure of the gaseous mixture

i.e Pi=Xi × Ptotal,

Here we don't know exactly how many moles of the mixture we have,

but we know that 78.0% of all the molecules present in the mixture are nitrogen molecules, 21.0% are oxygen molecules, and 1% are molecules of Ar gas.

As we know, a mole is simply a very large collection of molecules. In order to have one mole of a substance, we need to have 6.022 × 1023 molecules of that substance.

This means that the actual number of moles is not important here, because the ratio that exists between the number of molecules is equivalent to the ratio that exists between the number of moles.

Hence,

<u>Step</u> <u>2</u> : Calculate of mole fraction of the mixture.

mole fraction of nitrogen = 78 /100 = 0.78

mole fraction of O2 =

21 /100 = 0.21

mole fraction of Argon =

1 /100 = 0.01.

<u>Step</u> <u>3</u> : Calculate the pressure contributed by each of the mixture.

The pressure contributed by N2 = mole fraction of N2 × Total pressure = 0.78 × 0.83 atm = 0.6474 atm

The pressure contributed by O2 = 0.21 × 0.83 atm = 0.1743 atm

The pressure contributed by N2 = 0.01 × 0.83 atm = 0.0083 atm.

A nuclear fission reactor produces electricity. What is the role of the fuel, the control rods, water, and generator in this pro
natima [27]
The appropriate response is the third one. A generator is utilized to enact the control poles which contain radioactive isotopes. Once initiated, these isotopes start an atomic splitting chain response. Water in a cooling tank monitors the rate of response as electrons radiated from the response are encouraged through wires to homes and organizations.

How much heat is released when 432 g of water cools down from 71'c to 18'c?
maria [59]
The heat released by the water when it cools down by a temperature difference \Delta T is
Q=mC_s \Delta T
where
m=432 g is the mass of the water
C_s = 4.18 J/g^{\circ}C is the specific heat capacity of water
\Delta T =71^{\circ}C-18^{\circ}C=53^{\circ} is the decrease of temperature of the water

Plugging the numbers into the equation, we find
Q=(432 g)(4.18 J/g^{\circ}C)(53^{\circ}C)=9.57 \cdot 10^4 J
and this is the amount of heat released by the water.
