Answer:

17.89 m/s

Explanation:

recall that one of the equations of motion can be expressed as:

v² = u² + 2as,

where

v = final velocity = given as 20 m/s

u = initial velocity = given as 7.0 m/s

a = acceleration. Since it is freefalling downwards, the acceleration it would experience would be the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

s = displacement (we are asked to find)

simply substitute the known values into the equation:

v² = u² + 2as

20² = 7² + 2(9.81)s

400 - 49 = 19.62s

19.62s = 351

s = 351/19.62

s = 17.8899

s = 17.89 m/s

A robot is on the surface of Mars. The angle of depression from a camera in the robot to a rock on the surface of Mars is 13.69
ra1l [238]

Answer:

The distance between the camera and the rock is 836.6 cm

Explanation:

A right triangle is formed where the hypotenuse (h) is the distance between the rock and the camera. One of the leg (l) is the distance between the camera and the surface. The angle between the hypotenuse and this leg is α = 90° - 13.69° = 76.31°. By definition:

cos α = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(76.31) = 198.0/h

h = 198.0/cos(76.31)

h = 836.6 cm

Mt. Asama, Japan, is an active volcano. In 2009, an eruption threw solid volcanic rocks that landed 1 km horizontally from the c
Nata [24]

Answer:

a) 69.3 m/s

b) 18.84 s

Explanation:

Let the initial velocity = u

The vertical and horizontal components of the velocity is given by uᵧ and uₓ respectively

uᵧ = u sin 40° = 0.6428 u

uₓ = u cos 40° = 0.766 u

We're given that the horizontal distance travelled by the projectile rock (Range) = 1 km = 1000 m

The range of a projectile motion is given as

R = uₓt

where t = total time of flight

1000 = 0.766 ut

ut = 1305.5

The vertical distance travelled by the projectile rocks,

y = uᵧ t - (1/2)gt²

y = - 900 m (900 m below the crater's level)

-900 = 0.6428 ut - 4.9t²

Recall, ut = 1305.5

-900 = 0.6428(1305.5) - 4.9 t²

4.9t² = 839.1754 + 900

4.9t² = 1739.1754

t = 18.84 s

Recall again, ut = 1305.5

u = 1305.5/18.84 = 69.3 m/s

Which is true of magnetic field lines, but not electric field lines
Stels [109]

Answer:

B) they show which way iron shavings would align themselves

Explanation:

Let's analyze each statement:

A) they are not affected by their own source  --> this is true for both magnetic and electric fields. In fact, both fields are produced (and so affected) by a source (a magnet or a current in the magnetic field case, and an electric charge in the electric field case)

B) they show which way iron shavings would align themselves  --> this is only true for the magnetic field. In fact, the pieces of iron will align according to the magnetic field; however, since they are electrically neutral, they are not affected at all by an electric field.

C) they re stronger near the source and get weaker farther away   --> true for both magnetic and electric fields.

D) the closer the fields lines, the stronger the fields  --> also true for both magnetic and electric fields.

So, the correct answer is B.
