<h2>Right answer: It follows a curved path
</h2>
The movement of a projectile is a movement in two dimensions (forming a curved path: a parabola shape) with <u>constant acceleration.
</u>
<u>
</u>
A projectile is any body or object that is thrown or projected by means of some force and continues in motion by its own inertia. This means the only force that acts on it while in motion is <u>the acceleration of gravity</u> (in this case we are on Earth, so the gravity value is
).
Where gravity influences the <u>vertical movement</u> of the projectile, while <u>the horizontal movement</u> of the projectile is the result of the tendency of any object to remain in motion at a constant speed (according to Newton's 1st law of motion sometimes called Law of Inertia).
The other options are <u>incorrect</u> because are <u>false</u>:
-The forward motion negates air resistance: There is always at least a small percent of air resistance, as long as that movement is done on Earth.
-It has variable acceleration: In projectile motion acceleration is constant (gravity acceleration)
.
-It is unaffected by gravity: The only force that acts on the projectile is due gravity.
Answer:
7.50 m/s^2
Explanation:
The period of a pendulum is given by:
(1)
where
L = 0.600 m is the length of the pendulum
g = ? is the acceleration due to gravity
In this problem, we can find the period T. In fact, the frequency is equal to the number of oscillations per second, so:

And the period is the reciprocal of the frequency:

And by using this into eq.(1), we can find the value of g:

Answer:
E) The centripetal force is always perpendicular to the velocity.
Explanation:
Due to gravity and inertia, the satellite follows a uniform circular motion. In this movement, the velocity is always tangent to the orbit and the centripetal force is directed towards the center. Therefore, there is no net acceleration in the same direction of velocity, which implies that it remains constant.
True, recycling allows products to be reused which saves alot the natural resources that are used.
Answer:
[ 2.67 , 1 ] m
Explanation:
Given:-
- The side lengths of the rods are as follows:
a = 4 m , b = 4 m , c = 5 m
a = Base , b = Perpendicular , c = Hypotenuse
- All rods are made of same material with uniform density. With
Find:-
Find the coordinates of the center of mass of the triangle.
Solution:-
- The center of mass of any triangle is at the intersection of its medians.
- So let’s say we have a triangle with vertices at points (0,0) , (a,0) , and (0,b).
- Median from (0,0) to midpoint (a/2,b/2) of opposite side has equation:
bx−ay=0
- Median from (a,0) to midpoint (0,b/2) of opposite side has equation:
bx+2ay=ab
- Median from (0,b) to midpoint (a/2,0) of opposite side has equation:
2bx+ay=ab
- Solve all three equations simultaneously:
bx−ay=0 , bx = ay
ay + 2ay = ab , 3ay = ab , y = b/3
bx = b/3
x = a / 3
- So the distance from the median to each leg of the triangle is 1/3 length of other leg.
- So the coordinates of the centroid for right angle triangle would be:
[ 2a/3 , b/3 ]
[ 2.67 , 1 ] m
