The initial velocity of the projectile is 19.8m/s

Explanation:

First, find time.

From our kinematics equations:

delta y = Vi•t + (1/2)at^2

rearrange,

t = sqrt[(2•delta y)/a]

t = sqrt[(2•20m)/9.8m/s^2]

t = 2.02s

Next, plug time into new kinematics equation to solve for the Vi in the x direction (horizontal)

delta x = Vi•t + (1/2)at^2

delta x = Vi•t

Rearrange:

Vi = delta x/t

Vi = 40m/2.02s

Vix = 19.8m/s

Calculate the volume of this regular solid. A cylinder labeled B at the top, 13 centimeters high with a radius of 4 centimeters.
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The volume of the cylinder is 653.71\ \text{cm}^3

Explanation:

Given that,

The height of the cylinder is 13 cm

Radius of the cylinder is 4 cm

We need to find the volume of the cylinder. The formula that is used to find the volume of a cylinder is given by :

V=\pi r^2 h\\\\V=\dfrac{22}{7} \times (4)^2 \times 13\\\\V=653.71\ \text{cm}^3

So, the volume of the cylinder is 653.71\ \text{cm}^3

Do man made elements have a greater number than natural elements
Furkat [3]
A synthetic element is one of 24 chemical elements that do not occur naturally on Earth: they have been created by human manipulation of fundamental particles in a nuclear reactor, a particle accelerator, or the explosion of an atomic bomb; thus, they are called "synthetic", "artificial", or "man-made". The synthetic elements are those with atomic numbers 95–118, as shown in purple on the accompanying periodic table:[1] these 24 elements were first created between 1944 and 2010. The mechanism for the creation of a synthetic element is to force additional protons onto the nucleus of an element with an atomic number lower than 95. All synthetic elements are unstable, but they decay at a widely varying rate: their half-lives range from 15.6 million years to a few hundred microseconds.

A rectangular block weighs 240 N. the area of the block in contact with the floor is 20 cm2.calculate the pressure on the floor(
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

12 N/cm²

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Area (A) = 20 cm²

Pressure (P) =?

Next, we shall determine the force exerted by the block. This can be obtained as follow:

Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Force (F) =.?

Weight and force has the same unit of measurement. Thus, we force applied is equivalent to the weight of the block. Thus,

Force (F) = Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Force (F) = 240 N

Finally, we shall determine the pressure on the floor as follow:

Force (F) = 240 N

Area (A) = 20 cm²

Pressure (P) =?

P = F/A

P = 240 / 20

P = 12 N/cm²

Therefore, the pressure on the floor is 12 N/cm².

The intensity of the sound from a certain source is measured at two points along a line from the source. The points are separate
Artemon [7]

Answer:

The source is at a distance of 4.56 m from the first point.

Solution:

As per the question:

Separation distance between the points, d = 11.0 m

Sound level at the first point, L = 66.40 dB

Sound level at the second point, L'= 55.74 dB

Now,

L = 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_{o}}          

I = I_{o}10^{\frac{L}{10}} = I_{o}10^{0.1L} = 10^{- 12}\times 10^{0.1\times 66.40} = 10^{- 5.36}      

L' = 10log_{10}\frac{I'}{I_{o}}

I' = I_{o}10^{\frac{L'}{10}} = 10^{- 12}\times 10^{0.1\times 55.74} = 10^{- 6.426}        

where

I_{o} = 10^{- 12} W/m^{2}

I = Intensity of sound

Now,

I = \frac{P}{4\pi R^{2}}

Similarly,

I' = \frac{P}{4\pi (R + 11.0)^{2}}

Now,

\frac{I}{I'} = \frac{(R + 11.0)^{2}}{R^{2}}

\frac{10^{- 5.36}}{10^{- 6.426}} = \frac{(R + 11.0)^{2}}{R^{2}}

R ^{2} + 22R + 121 = 11.64R^{2}}

10.64R ^{2} - 22R - 121 = 0

Solving the above quadratic eqn, we get:

R = 4.56 m
