Answer:

F=ma

therefore A=F/M

Explanation:

i think that's what your doing but I'm not sure

An artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 300 m/s at 52.0° above the horizontal. To clear an avalanche, it explode

sasho [114]

The x- and y-coordinates are 9142.57 m and -304.425 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

As the motion of the shell is in a plane (two dimensional space) and the acceleration is that due to gravity which is vertically downward, we resolve initial velocity of the shell $v_{0}$ in horizontal and vertical directions. If the initial velocity of the shell is making angle with the horizontal, the horizontal component of initial velocity will be

$v_{x}=v_{0} \times \cos \theta$

As the acceleration of the shell is vertical having no horizontal component, the shell may be considered to move horizontally with constant velocity of $v_{x}$ and hence the horizontal distance covered (or the x coordinate of the shell with point of projection as origin) is given by

$v_{x}=v_{o} \times \cos \theta=300 \times \cos \left(52^{\circ}\right)=184.69 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

$v_{y}=v_{o} \times \sin \theta==300 \times \sin \left(52^{\circ}\right)=236.4 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

For motion with constant acceleration, we know

$s=s_{0}+v_{0} t+\left(\frac{(1)}{2}\right) a t^{2}$

Along the horizontal, x-axis, we might write this as

$x=x_{0}+v_{x 0} t+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) a_{x} t^{2}$

Measuring distances relative to the firing point means

$x_{0}=0$

we know that,

$a_{x}=0$

or,

$v_{x}=v_{x 0}=\text { constant }$

By applying the values, we get,

$x=0+(184.69 \times 49.5)+\left(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \times 0 \times(49.5)^{2}\right)=9142.57 \mathrm{m}$

The acceleration of gravity is vertically downward and is $g=-9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ , hence the vertical distance covered (or y coordinate of the shell) is given by the second equation of motion

$y=y_{0}+v_{y 0} t+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) a_{y} t^{2}$

we know, $y_{0}=0$ and $a_{y}=-9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ , so,

$y=0+(236.4 \times 49.5)+\left(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \times(-9.8) \times(49.5)^{2}\right)$

y = 11701.8 - 4.9(2450.25)= 11701.8 - 12006.225 = - 304.425 m

What is magnetic shielding?<br>

AysviL [449]

It is basically shielding a magnetic field. This can be done with rubber or any other material that is thick. Normally small magnets already block the shield.

Describe the relationship between a moving objects mass and its kinetic energy

swat32

Kinetic energy is the energy of mass in motion, the kinetic energy that an object has is because of it's motion.Heavier objects that are moving have more kinetic energy than lighter ones.
