Physics
1 answer:
sattari [20]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

equating the parameters into the formula, it's gonna be

= ½ × 60 × 20²

= ½ × 60 × 400

= ½ × 24000

K.E = 12000J

Robert, a stuntman, projects himself from a height of 50.0 meters in a horizontal direction. He safely lands at a horizontal dis
Olin [163]
To get this we need to know how long he was traveling. To know that we need to solve for the time it took for him to hit the ground. This is given by the vertical height he started at and the equation of motion for falling objects. The position function is
Y= -(9.8/2)t^2 + 50 = 0
t=3.19s
That's how long he's in the air. When he hits the ground he stops moving forward so this is also the amount of time he was moving at 100m/s horizontally. Now use speed distance relationship
X=vt
And solve for v
100m/3.19s = 31.35m/s

zepelin [54]

Answer: C. They are regions in which strong magnetic fields make it difficult for fresh supplies of hot, ionized gas to reach the photosphere

Explanation:

Sunspots appear dark because they are regions in which strong magnetic fields make it difficult for fresh supplies of hot, ionized gas to reach the photosphere.

Sunspots are typically cooler than their surroundings. For example, the temperature of a large sunspot can be about 4,000 Kelvin which is lower than the temperature of the photosphere around it which is about 5,800 Kelvin.

Iron atoms have been detected in the sun's atmosphere, some with many of their electrons stripped away. What is the net electric
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

2.88 × 10⁻¹⁸ C

Explanation:

The charge on a proton and electron are the same and it is = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

The net charge electric charge of an iron atom = (number of proton × charge on a proton) + ( number of electron × charge on an electron ) = 26 (e) + 8 (-e) = 26 e - 8 e = 18 e = 18 ×  1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C = 2.88 × 10⁻¹⁸ C
