A cannon is fired horizontally from atop a 40.0 m tower. The cannonball travels 175 m horizontally before it strikes the ground.

With what velocity did the ball leave the muzzle?

Anastasy [175]3 years ago

The vertical movement of the projectile is described by:

y = H - gt² / 2

When the cannonball is on the ground, y= 0 so:

0 = H - gt² /2

Solving for t:

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2H}{g}} = \sqrt{\dfrac{2(40\;m)}{9.8\;m/s^2}} = 2.8\;s

The horizontally movement of the projectile is described by:

x = v₀t

Solving for v₀:

v₀ = x/t

v₀ = 175 m / 2.8 s

v₀ = 61.5 m/s

The use of a laser beam to seal leaky blood vessels and to prevent the growth of new ones in diabetic retinopathy is called lase

The answer is photocoagulation.

The use of a laser beam to seal leaky blood vessels and to prevent the growth of new ones in diabetic retinopathy is called laser <u>photocoagulation.</u>

<u></u>

What is photocoagulation?

A minimally invasive method used to treat numerous retinal illnesses is photocoagulation of the retina, also known as retinal laser photocoagulation. The retina may expand due to aberrant leaky blood vessels developing across it in a number of disorders. Laser photocoagulation uses thermal energy above 65 °C to burn the retinal tissue by creating thermal burns. This can prevent the retina from being damaged by the bleeding blood vessels. In addition to causing fibrosis, laser photocoagulation can also seal retinal tears. Laser photocoagulation is typically unable to recover already lost vision in cases of retinal disease, but it can slow the progression of the condition, lower the chance of further vision loss, and preserve residual vision. The likelihood of problems following the operation is quite minimal.

With each beat of your heart the aortic valve opens and closes. The valve opens and closes very rapidly, with a peak velocity as
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

|Δf| = 37.3 kHz

Explanation:

given,

peak velocity = 4 m/s

speed of the sound = 1500 m/s

frequency = 7 MHz

v = C\dfrac{\pm \dlta f}{2 f_0}

\delta f = \pm 2 f_0 (\dfrac{V}{C})

\delta f = \pm 2\times 7 (\dfrac{4}{1500})

           =\pm 0.0373 MHz

           = 37.3 kHz

|Δf| = 37.3 kHz

hence, frequency shift between the opening and closing valve is 37.3 kHz

Calculate the rotational inertia of a wheel that has akinetic
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

J = 14.4 kg*m^2

Explanation:

Assuming that the wheel is not moving anywhere, and the kinetic energy is only due to rotation:

Ek = 1/2 * J * w^2

J = 2 * Ek / (w^2)

We need the angular speed in rad / s

566 rev/min * (1 min/ 60 s) * (2π rad / rev) = 58.22 rad/s

Then:

J = 2 * 24400 / (58.22^2) = 14.4 kg*m^2

Identical balls are dropped from the same initial height and bounce back to half the initial height. In Case 1, the ball bounces
Kitty [74]

Answer:

<em>1. c. Same in both</em>

<em>2. a. Case 1</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

1. The balls are identical in all sense, which means that if they are dropped from the same height, they should posses the same kinetic energy just before they collide with either the concrete floor or the stretchy rubber. Also, since they reach the same height when they bounced of the concrete floor or the piece of stretchy rubber, it means that they posses the same amount of kinetic energy at this point. Since their kinetic energy at these two points are the same, and they have the same masses, then this means that their momenta at these two instances will also be equal. Since all these is true, then the change in the momentum of the balls between the instance just before hitting the concrete floor or the stretchy rubber material and the instant the ball just leave the floor or the stretchy material is the same for both.

2. The ball that falls on the concrete will experience the greatest force, since the time of impact is small, when compared to the time spent by the other ball in contact with the stretchy rubber material; which will stretch, thereby extending the time spent in contact between them.
