Answer:

The collision is inelastic

Explanation:

There are two kinds of collision; elastic collision and inelastic collision. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.

However, in an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not conserved. So, when the bumper of two cars collide, the cars come to a stop because the collision is inelastic.

The mixture you separated was a mixture of iron filings, sand, and salt. Based on your understanding of matter, is this mixture
V125BC [204]

Answer: Heterogeneous mixture - the parts are not uniformly mixed.

A mixture contains components having distinct chemical properties. There are two types of mixtures: homogeneous and heterogeneous. In a homogeneous mixture there is uniform distribution of components. we cannot distinguish one portion of the mixture from another. for example salt mixed in water. In heterogeneous mixture, the components are not uniformly mixed. hence, we are able to distinguish different parts of a mixture, like the mixture of iron, sand and salt given in this question.

What motivates the squire in lines 85- 90?
just olya [345]
<span>Answer: If you mean the Knight in the prologue, the man traveling with his son (the Squire) and a Yeoman, he is traveling to Canterbury to give thanks for his safe return from the wars in the Baltic. We're told that he has never been known to speak unkindly to anyone, a fact that sums up his chivalrous upbringing. Evidently he feels strongly motivated to live by a code of high standards and refined behavior.</span>

For a given initial projectile speed Vo, calculate what launch angle A gives the longest range R. Show your work, don't just quo
pickupchik [31]
The optimal angle of 45° for maximum horizontal range is only valid when initial height is the same as final height. 

<span>In that particular situation, you can prove it like this: </span>

<span>initial velocity is Vo </span>
<span>launch angle is α </span>

<span>initial vertical velocity is </span>
<span>Vv = Vo×sin(α) </span>

<span>horizontal velocity is </span>
<span>Vh = Vo×cos(α) </span>

<span>total time in the air is the the time it needs to fall back to a height of 0 m, so </span>
<span>d = v×t + a×t²/2 </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>d = distance = 0 m </span>
<span>v = initial vertical velocity = Vv = Vo×sin(α) </span>
<span>t = time = ? </span>
<span>a = acceleration by gravity = g (= -9.8 m/s²) </span>
<span>so </span>
<span>0 = Vo×sin(α)×t + g×t²/2 </span>
<span>0 = (Vo×sin(α) + g×t/2)×t </span>
<span>t = 0 (obviously, the projectile is at height 0 m at time = 0s) </span>
<span>or </span>
<span>Vo×sin(α) + g×t/2 = 0 </span>
<span>t = -2×Vo×sin(α)/g </span>

<span>Now look at the horizontal range. </span>
<span>r = v × t </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>r = horizontal range = ? </span>
<span>v = horizontal velocity = Vh = Vo×cos(α) </span>
<span>t = time = -2×Vo×sin(α)/g </span>
<span>so </span>
<span>r = (Vo×cos(α)) × (-2×Vo×sin(α)/g) </span>
<span>r = -(Vo)²×sin(2α)/g </span>

<span>To find the extreme values of r (minimum or maximum) with variable α, you must find the first derivative of r with respect to α, and set it equal to 0. </span>

<span>dr/dα = d[-(Vo)²×sin(2α)/g] / dα </span>
<span>dr/dα = -(Vo)²/g × d[sin(2α)] / dα </span>
<span>dr/dα = -(Vo)²/g × cos(2α) × d(2α) / dα </span>
<span>dr/dα = -2 × (Vo)² × cos(2α) / g </span>

<span>Vo and g are constants ≠ 0, so the only way for dr/dα to become 0 is when </span>
<span>cos(2α) = 0 </span>
<span>2α = 90° </span>
<span>α = 45° </span>
