of the ball when it was launched.​
Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Maximum height H = 300m

Range (horizontal distance) = 380m

Required

Initial speed U and the angle of the ball when it was launched.​

Range = U√2H/g

380 = U√2(300)/9.8

380 = U√600/9.8

380 = 7.8246U

U = 380/7.8246

U = 48.57m/s

The initial speed is 48.57m/s

b) Using the formula for calculating time of flight;

T = 2Usin theta/g

9 = 2(48.57)sin theta/9.8

9*9.8 = 97.14sin theta

88.2 = 97.14sin theta

88.2/97.14 = sin theta

sin theta = 0.9079

theta = sin^-1(0.9079)

theta = 65.23°

hence the angle when the ball was launched is 65.23°

If a cart of 10 kg mass has a force of 5 newtons exerted on it, what is its acceleration? m/s2
Elza [17]

Answer:

= 0.5 m/s²

Explanation:

  • According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force is directly proportion to the rate of change of linear momentum.

Therefore;<em> F = ma , where F is the Force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.</em>

<em>Thus; a = F/m</em>

<em>but; F = 5 N, and m = 10 kg</em>

<em>  a = 5 /10</em>

    <u>= 0.5 m/s²</u>

A boat travels at 30 mph for a huge, solid cliff that is about 3,000 meters away. When the horn on the boat makes a toot, you ca
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:The frequency of the echo is slightly decreased

Explanation:

Given

speed of boat =30\ mph

cliff is 3000\ m away

when boat is still , suppose t is the time taken by the echo to reach observer on the boat

But as soon as boat starts moving  the distance between cliff and boat decreasing and time for echo to reach observer also decreases

and we know time \propto \frac{1}{frequency}

therefore frequency of the echo slightly decreased.

A sports car accelerates from rest for 5 seconds reaching a velocity of 23.0 m/s.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

<h2>4.6 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

<h3>a =  \frac{v - u}{t}  \\</h3>

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

a is the acceleration

Since the body is from rest u = 0

From the question we have

a =  \frac{23 - 0}{5}  =  \frac{23}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.6 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
