Answer:

MY friend has already described the purpose of projectile motion so I will quickly go through the uses of each equation ...

Explanation:

TIME OF FLIGHT = it is given as 2Usin tita/g...it is the total time taken to and fro...it is 2x of the time taken ....

TIME taken ..t= Usin tita / g.....is the time taken to reach the maximum height which is 1/2 the TOTALTIME OF FLIGHT GIVEN ABOVE ..

MAXIMUM HEIGHT: the maximum height is the height attained by the projectile when projected ...it is calculate using the formula = U^2 sin^2 tita / 2g

An object launched into projectile motion will have an initial launch angle anywhere from 0 to 90 degrees. The range of an object, given the initial launch angle and initial velocity is found with: R=v2isin2θig R = v i 2 sin ⁡ 2 θ i g .

For the answer to the question, ergonomics<span> is the science of fitting the job to the worker. When there is a mismatch between the physical requirements of the job and the physical capacity of the worker, work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) can result. Ergonomics is the practice of designing equipment and work tasks to conform to the capability of the worker, it provides a means for adjusting the work environment and work practices to prevent injuries before they occur.</span>

Carbon-14 is used to determine the time an organism was living. The amount of carbon-14 an organism has is constant with the atm

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The age of the organism is approximately 11460 years.

Explanation:

The amount of carbon-14 decays exponentially in time and is defined by the following equation:

$\frac{n(t)}{n_{o}} = e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$ (1)

Where:

$n_{o}$ - Initial amount of carbon-14.

$n(t)$ - Current amount of carbon-14.

$t$ - Time, measured in years.

$\tau$ - Time constant, measured in years.

Then, we clear the time within the formula:

$t = -\tau \cdot \ln \frac{n(t)}{n_{o}}$ (2)

In addition, time constant can be calculated by means of half-life of carbon-14 ( $t_{1/2}$ ), measured in years:

$\tau = \frac{t_{1/2}}{\ln 2}$

If we know that $\frac{n(t)}{n_{o}} = 0.25$ and $t_{1/2} = 5730\,yr$ , then the age of the organism is:

$\tau = \frac{5730\,yr}{\ln 2}$

$\tau \approx 8266.643\,yr$

$t = -(8266.643\,yr)\cdot \ln 0.25$

$t \approx 11460.001\,yr$

The age of the organism is approximately 11460 years.

Why does an object in motion stay in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force?

Svet_ta [14]

Answer: A) because forces are what stop and start motion

Explanation:

From Newton's first law, an object tends to stay in state of rest or motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced external force. This is also known law of inertia. This is because a force can stop or start a motion. A force cause body to accelerate to decelerate otherwise the body continues with constant speed.
