\huge{\textbf{\textsf{{\color{pink}{An}}{\red{sw}}{\orange{er}} {\color{yellow}{:}}}}}

An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion at a constant speed and direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. ... In the absence of any forces, no force is required to keep an object moving.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

The current in the primary is 0.026 A

Explanation:

Using the formula

I1 = (V1/V2)*I2

we have

I1 = (6.4/120)*0.500

I1 = 0.026 A

A basketball player shoots toward a basket 5.3 m away and 3.0 m above the floor. If the ball is released 1.9 m above the floor a
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Vi = 8.28 m/s

Explanation:

This problem is related to the projectile motion.

As we know there are two components of motion associated with this, the horizontal component and vertical component.

The horizontal distance covered by the ball is

Vx*t = x

Vx*t = 5.3

Vx = 5.3/t  eq. 1

Also we know that

Vx = Vicos(60)

Vx = Vi*0.5  eq. 2

equate eq. 1 and eq. 2

5.3/t = Vi*0.5

5.3/0.5 = Vi*t

Vi*t = 10.6  eq. 3

The vertical distance is

Vy = y1 + Vyi*t - 0.5gt²

also we know that

Vyi = Visin(60)

Vyi = Vi*0.866

It is given that V1 = 1.9 m and and Vy = 3 m is the vertical distance

3 = 1.9 + Vi*0.866*t - 0.5gt²

3 = 1.9 + Vi*0.866*t - 0.5(9.8)t²

3 = 1.9 + 0.866(Vi*t) - 0.5(9.8)t²

3 = 1.9 + 0.866(Vi*t) - 0.5(9.8)t²

1.1 = 0.866(Vi*t) - 4.9t²

0.866(Vi*t) = 4.9t² + 1.1

substitute Vi*t = 10.6 in above equation

0.866(10.6) = 4.9t² + 1.1

9.18 = 4.9t² + 1.1

4.9t² = 8.08

t² = 8.08/4.9

t² = 1.648

t = 1.28 sec

Finally, initial speed can be found by substituting the value of t into eq. 3

Vi*t = 10.6

Vi = 10.6/t

Vi = 10.6/1.28

Vi = 8.28 m/s
