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.

1. A sprinter races in the 100 meter dash. It takes him 10 second to reach the finish line
poizon [28]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m

Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s

We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v = d/t

v=\dfrac{100\ m}{10\ s}\\\\v=10\ m/s

Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.

IN THIS FORMULA FOR WATER WHAT DOES THE SUBSCRIPT 2 INDICATE
masha68 [24]
The chemical formular for water is H2O.
The H aspect of the formula stands for hydrogen gas and the subscript 2 which is attached to the H symbol signifies that two atoms of hydrogen are joined together, that is two atom of hydrogen are present.
The chemical formula of water indicates that, two atom of hydrogen react with one atom of oxygen to form one molecule of water.
In chemical formulae, subscripts are normally used to indicate the number of atoms that are present in a molecule.

If you connected 10 of these 12V (10 W) lamps in parallel, to the 12V source, how much current would the source have to supply
Flauer [41]

Answer:

T=8.33A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Number of battery n=10

Voltage sourceE=12V

Lamp PowerP=10W

Generally the equation for Resistance is mathematically given by

 R=\frac{V^2}{P}

 R=\frac{12^2}{10}

 R=14.4ohms

Therefore

 R_{eq}=\frac{14.4}{10}

 R_{eq}=1.44

Generally the equation for Current is mathematically given by

 T=\ffrac{V}{Req}

 T=\frac{12}{1.44}

 T=8.33A

Why is oxygen more chemically reactive than nitrogen?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

O2 has two more electrons compared to N2, with extra 2 electrons in the higher energy anti-bonding orbitals known as Diradical. These electrons have higher energy and are unpaired; therefore, O2 is more reactive
