Which of the following most directly shows how physics affects society?

Suppose that you can throw a projectile at a large enough v0 so that it can hit a target a distance R downrange. Given that you

NikAS [45]

Answer:

Theta1 = 12° and theta2 = 168°

The solution procedure can be found in the attachment below.

Explanation:

The Range is the horizontal distance traveled by a projectile. This diatance is given mathematically by Vo cos(theta) t. Where t is the total time of flight of the projectile in air. It is the time taken for the projectile to go from starting point to finish point. This solution assumes the projectile finishes uts motion on the same horizontal level as the starting point and as a result the vertical displacement is zero (no change in height).

In the solution as can be found below, the expression to calculate the range for any launch angle theta was first derived and then the required angles calculated from the equation by substituting the values of the the given quantities.

Does the under water pressure depend on the molecules of the air or what does it depend on

miskamm [114]

Answer:the pressure depends on gas and it will be half as much underwater

Explanation:

Water pressure increases with the depth of the water. This is because the weight of the column of water above the object increases. But a large, shallow pond may have more water in it than a small, deep pond.

This is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure, the force per unit area exerted by a liquid on an object. The deeper you go under the sea, the greater the pressure of the water pushing down on you. For every 33 feet (10.06 meters) you go down, the pressure increases by one atmosphere .

Consider a well-insulated rigid container with two chambers separated by a membrane. The total volume is 5.0 cubic meters. The f

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

The Entropy generated by the steam = 2.821 kJ/K

Explanation:

Total volume of container = 5m³

Heat transfer does not exist between system and surrounding, dQ = 0

At the first chamber, temperature of water at saturated liquid is 300°C

From the steam table:

Specific enthalpy of saturated liquid at 300°C , $h_{f} = 1344.8 kJ/kg$

Specific internal energy of saturated liquid at 300°C, $U_{f1} =$ 1332.7 kJ/kg

For closed system, the first law of thermodynamics state that:

dQ = dw + dU..................(1)

work done for free expansion, dw =0

0 = 0 + dU

dU = 0 , i.e. U₁ = U₂

At the second chamber,

The final pressure, P₂ = 50 kPa

From the steam table, at P₂ = 50 kPa, $U_{f2}$ = 340.49 kJ/kg

$(U_{fg} )_{2} = 2142.7 kJ/kg$

Let the dryness fraction at the second chamber = x

$U_{2} = U_{f2} + U_{fg2}$

$U_{2} = 340.49 + x2140.7$ Since U₁ = U₂

1332.7 = 340.49 + x2140.7

Dryness fraction, x = 0.463

From steam table, the specific volume is, $u_{f2} = 0.00103 m^{3} /kg\\$

$u_{2} = u_{f2} + xu_{fg2}$

$u_{2} = 0.00103 + 0.463(3.2393)\\u_{2} = 1.5 m^{3} /kg\\$

$u_{2} = \frac{v_{2} }{m_{2} }$

V₂ = 5 m³

1.5 = 5/m₂

m₂ = 3.33 kg

At 300°C $S_{1} = S_{f} = 3.2548 kJ/kg-k\\$

$S_{2} = S_{f2} + xS_{fg2}$

From the steam table,

$S_{f2} = 1.0912 kJ/kg-k\\S_{fg2} = 6.5019 kJ/kg-k\\S_{2} = 1.0912 + 0.463(6.5019)\\S_{2} = 4.102 kJ/kg-k$

Therefore the entropy generated will be :

Entropy = mass* (S₂ - S₁)

Entropy = 3.33* (4.102 - 3.2548)

Entropy = 2.821 kJ/K

What is the strategy you use to solve word problems in physics?

Inga [223]

Answer:

The strategy we would like you to learn has five major steps: Focus the Problem, Physics Description, Plan a Solution, Execute the Plan, and Evaluate the Solution. Let's take a detailed look at each of these steps and then do an sample problem following the strategy.

Question 4 - If Angelica starts out at 30m/s, and in 16 s speeds up to 84 m/s, what is her acceleration?

Triss [41]

Answer:

C. $3.375 m/s^2$

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object can be found using the equation:

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time it takes for the velocity to change from u to v

In this problem:

u = 30 m/s is the initial velocity of Angelica

v = 84 m/s is the final velocity

t is the time

Substituting into the equation, we find the acceleration:

$a=\frac{84-30}{16}=3.375 m/s^2$
