Answer:

  1. \displaystyle(v_i)_y  \approx 29.25\ m/s
  2. \displaystyle(v_i)_x  \approx 41.78\  m/s  
  3. t\approx 5.97 \ \text{s}
  4. \triangle x \approx 304.47 \ \text{m}

Explanation:

Find the vertical component:

  • \displaystyle (v_i)_y =  v_i \cdot sin(\theta)
  • \displaystyle (v_i)_y =  51 \cdot sin(35)
  • \displaystyle (v_i)_y \approx 29.25

Find the horizontal component:

  • \displaystyle (v_i)_x =  v_i \cdot cos(\theta)  
  • \displaystyle (v_i)_x =  51 \cdot cos(35)
  • \displaystyle (v_i)_x \approx 41.78

We can use this constant acceleration kinematic equation to find the time of flight:

  • v_f=v_i+at  

Since we don't know the final velocity of the projectile at the end of its trajectory, we can use our knowledge that the final velocity when the projectile reaches its maximum height = 0 m/s.

Therefore, we will solve for half the total time t and double this at the end.

We are going to use the equation in terms of the y-direction since we know the acceleration in the y-direction = g.

  • 0=51\cdot sin(35) + (-9.8)t

Subtract the y-component of the initial velocity from both sides.

  • -51\cdot sin(35) = -9.8t

Divide both sides by -9.8 to solve for t.

  • t=2.984938597

Let's double this time to find the total time of flight.

  • 2t \approx 5.97

The time of flight is approximately 5.97 seconds.

Now we can use this kinematic equation to find the displacement in the x-direction:

  • \displaystyle \triangle x = v_i t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

Using our knowledge, we can assume that the acceleration in the x-direction is 0 m/s² since the question does not specify air resistance.

  • \displaystyle \triangle x=(51)(5.97) + \frac{1}{2} (0)(5.97)^2
  • \triangle x = (51)(5.97)
  • \triangle x = 304.47  

The displacement in the x-direction is approximately 304.47 meters.

A deuterium atom is a hydrogen atom with a neutron added to its nucleus. Approximate the binding energy of this nucleus, given t
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

c. 2 MeV.

Explanation:

The computation of the binding energy is shown below

= [Zm_p + (A - Z)m_n - N]c^2\\\\=[(1) (1.007825u) + (2 - 1 ) ( 1.008665 u) - 2.014102 u]c^2\\\\= (0.002388u)c^2\\\\= (.002388) (931.5 MeV)\\\\=2.22 MeV

= 2 MeV

As 1 MeV = (1 u) c^2

hence, the binding energy is 2 MeV

Therefore the correct option is c.

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct binding energy could come

And, the same is to be considered

What is the kinetic energy of a 1200 kg object that is moving at a speed of 24 m/s?
maria [59]
Kinetic Energy = 1/2mv^2
m= 1200kg
v= 24 m/s

KE = 1/2 (1200kg)(24m/s)^2 = 345,600 N
