Part a)
in horizontal direction there is no gravity or no other acceleration
so in horizontal direction the speed of clam will remain same
Part b)
In vertical direction we can use kinematics
part c)
if the speed of crow will be increased then the horizontal speed of the clam will also increase but there is no change in the vertical speed
Gravitational potential energy, relative to some level =
(mass of the object)
times
(height above the reference level)
times
(acceleration due to gravity) .
Your list of choices is a very short list, and doesn't include any
correct explanation.
The mass of an atom is roughly the number of protons AND neutrons
in its nucleus, but the element only depends on how many protons are there.
Different atoms of the same element may have different numbers of
neutrons, so their masses are different. But they're the same element,
because they all have the same number of protons.
Answer:
1. The precession of the equinoxes.
2. Changes in the tilt angle of Earth’s rotational axis relative to the plane of Earth’s orbit around the Sun.
3. Variations in the eccentricity
Explanation:
These variations listed above; the precession of the equinoxes (refers, changes in the timing of the seasons of summer and winter), this occurs on a roughly about 26,000-year interval; changes in the tilt angle of Earth’s rotational axis relative to the plane of Earth’s orbit around the Sun, this occurs roughly in a 41,000-year interval; and changes in the eccentricity (that is a departure from a perfect circle) of Earth’s orbit around the Sun, occurring on a roughly 100,000-year timescale. which influences the mean annual solar radiation at the top of Earth’s atmosphere.
Answer:
The distance will be x = 41.7 [m]
Explanation:
We must first find the components in the x & y axes of the initial velocity.
![(v_{o})_{x} = 15*cos(20)= 14.09[m/s]\\(v_{o})_{y} = 15*sin(20)= 5.13[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28v_%7Bo%7D%29_%7Bx%7D%20%3D%2015%2Acos%2820%29%3D%2014.09%5Bm%2Fs%5D%5C%5C%28v_%7Bo%7D%29_%7By%7D%20%3D%2015%2Asin%2820%29%3D%205.13%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
The acceleration is the gravity acceleration therefore.
g = 9.81 [m/s^2]
Now we can calculate how long it takes to fall.
![y=(v_{o})_{y}*t-0.5*g*t^2\\-28 = 5.13*t-0.5*9.81*t^2\\-28=-4.905*t^2+5.13*t\\4.905*t^2-5.13*t=28\\t = 2.96[s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D%28v_%7Bo%7D%29_%7By%7D%2At-0.5%2Ag%2At%5E2%5C%5C-28%20%3D%205.13%2At-0.5%2A9.81%2At%5E2%5C%5C-28%3D-4.905%2At%5E2%2B5.13%2At%5C%5C4.905%2At%5E2-5.13%2At%3D28%5C%5Ct%20%3D%202.96%5Bs%5D)
With this time we can find the horizontal distance that runs the projectile.
![x=(v_{o})_{x}*t\\x=14.09*2.96\\x=41.7[m]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D%28v_%7Bo%7D%29_%7Bx%7D%2At%5C%5Cx%3D14.09%2A2.96%5C%5Cx%3D41.7%5Bm%5D)
