Answer:

209 m

Explanation:

The y-component of a vector is the magnitude times the sine of the angle.

y = 253 sin 55.8°

y = 209

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 209 m

Explanation:

Data

length = 253 m

d = 55.8°

y - component = ?

Formula

To solve this problem we need to use a right triangle a the trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, tangent, etc)

Now we have to choose among the trigonometric functions which one to use that relates the opposite side and the hypotenuse.

And that one is sineФ = os/h

we clear os = sineФ x h

     os = sine 55.8 x253

     os =  209 m

Displacement is the area under the velocity/time graph. So for example this object's displacement in the first 3 seconds is (1/2)(3sec)(12.5 m/s)= 18.75m. (and then it starts backing up, displacement decreasing, after 3sec when velocity is negative).

But This object is never speeding up. Its velocity is smoothly decreasing at (25/6) m/s^2 (the slope of the graph). So the answer to the question is actually zero.

If the speed is higher than the orbital velocity, but not high enough to leave Earth altogether (lower than the escape velocity), it will continue revolving around Earth along an elliptical orbit. (D) for example horizontal speed of 7,300 to approximately 10,000 m/s for Earth.

Maru [420]

Answer: <u>Flammability</u> is a chemical property only.

Odor, density, melting point, boiling point, and solubility are all physical properties.

Formation of a gas, temperature change, and color change can all indicate a chemical change or a physical change has occurred, depending on if the substance's composition is changed in the process.

Hope this helps

otez555 [7]
The rod transferred negatively charged particle to the metal sphere. The rod becomes less negatively charged than it was originally (originally it was charged to -21 nc, now it has -8, and -8>-21), so it must have moved 13 nc of negative charge to the sphere.
