Answer:

The horizontal distance the pumpkin will travel after it slips from the eagle is 17.02 m

Explanation:

Given;

height above the ground, h = 16.4 m

speed of the eagle, v = 9.3 m/s

The time it will take the pumpkin to fall at the given height is calculated as;

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }\\\\t =  \sqrt{\frac{2*16.4}{9.8} }\\\\t = 1.83 \ s

The horizontal distance traveled at this time is given by;

x = vt

x = (9.3)(1.83)

x = 17.02 m

Therefore, the horizontal distance the pumpkin will travel after it slips from the eagle is 17.02 m

With what speed does the can move immediately after the collision? Answer in units of m/s.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

1.74 m/s

Explanation:

From the question, we are given that the mass of the an object, m1= 2.7 kilogram(kg) and the mass of the can,m(can) is 0.72 Kilogram (kg). The velocity of the mass of an object(m1) , V1 is 1.1 metre per seconds(m/s) and the velocity of the mass of can[m(can)], V(can) is unknown- this is what we are to find.

Therefore, using the formula below, we can calculate the speed of the can, V(can);

===> Mass of object,m1 × velocity of object, V1 = mass of the can[m(can)] × velocity is of the can[V(can)].----------------------------------------------------(1).

Since the question says the collision was elastic, we use the formula below

Slotting in the given values into the equation (1) above, we have;

1/2×M1×V^2(initial velocity of the first object) + 1/2 ×M(can)×V^2(final velocy of the first object)= 1/2 × M1 × V^2 m( initial velocity of the first object).

Therefore, final velocity of the can= 2M1V1/M1+M2.

==> 2×2.7×1.1/ 2.7 + 0.72.

The velocity of the can after collision = 1.74 m/s

lidiya [134]

Answer:

1.26

Explanation:

change 45 grams to kilograms which is 0.045 then just multiply it by 28 m/s

0.045x28=1.260

Parallax error occurs when the observer records data when he/she is at an angle to the event he/she is observing. Where do you t
kompoz [17]

Answer:Orient your line of sight directly above the measurement markings.

Explanation: parallax error is a type of systematic error that occurs when an observer views a measurement marking at a wrong angle. This causes a noticeable disparity in results obtained. Therefore the best way to prevent this error is to view and record the data from the correct angle. This can be obtained by:

-Place the measurement device on its edge so it is level with the object being measured.

-Seek out the finest possible edge of the measurement device, or use a device with finer edges.

In conclusion, ask other observers to also take the reading and get an average of their results. It can help cancel out parallax error results.

An electron is accelerated through 2400 V from rest and then enters a region in which there is a uniform 1.70 T magnetic field.
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let v be the velocity acquired by electron in electric field

V q = 1/2 m v²

V is potential difference applied on charge q , m is mass of charge , v is velocity acquired

2400 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = .5 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x v²

v² = 844 x 10¹²

v = 29.05 x 10⁶ m /s

Maximum force will be exerted on moving electron when it moves perpendicular to magnetic field .

Maximum force = Bqv , where B is magnetic field , q is charge on electron and v is velocity of electron

= 1.7 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 29.05 x 10⁶

= 79.02 x 10⁻¹³ N .

Minimum force will be zero when electron moves along the direction of magnetic field .
