Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Range of a projectile is given by; U^2sin2θ/g

When θ = 45°

The maximum range is obtained as;

Rmax = U^2/g

Maximum range on earth = RME = U^2/g

Maximum range in the moon= RMM =U^2/g/6

Maximum range in Mars = RMMA = U^2/0.38g

a)

RME/RMM =  U^2/g/U^2/g/6

RME/RMM = 6

But RME = 3 m

RMM = 3 * 6 = 18 m

b)

RME/RMMA =U^2/g/U^2/0.38g

RME/RMMA = 1/0.38

But RME = 3 m

RMMA = 3/0.38

RMMA = 7.9 m

When the spring, with the attached 275.0 g mass, is displaced from its new equilibrium position, it undergoes SHM. Calculate the
topjm [15]

Answer:

The period of oscillation is 1.33 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 275.0 g

Suppose value of spring constant is 6.2 N/m.

We need to calculate the angular frequency

Using formula of angular frequency

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

Where, m = mass

k = spring constant

Put the value into the formula

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.2}{275.0\times10^{-3}}}

\omega=4.74\ rad/s

We need to calculate the period of oscillation,

Using formula of time period

T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}

Put the value into the formula

T=\dfrac{2\pi}{4.74}

T=1.33\ sec

Hence, The period of oscillation is 1.33 sec.

An object that is dropped straight down from a height of 100 m has a vertical change in position that is less than that of an id
sergey [27]
Objects dropped straight or thrown horizontally from the same height
change their vertical velocity at the same rate, and fall through equal
vertical distances in equal time intervals.

The statement is false.

How much is the velocity of a body when it travels 600m in 5 minutes?​
maks197457 [2]

answer

so unit of velocity is m/s

displacement=600m

5minutes should be converted to seconds

5×60=300 seconds

so,

velocity= displacement÷time

= 600m ÷300s

=2m/s or 2ms^-1

An archer tests various arrowheads by shooting arrows at a pumpkin that is suspended from a tree branch by a rope, as shown to t
erik [133]

Answer:

Bounce 1 ,  pass 3,   emb2

Explanation:

(By the way I am also doing that question on College board physics page) For the Bounce arrow, since it bumps into the object and goes back, it means now it has a negative momentum, which means a larger momentum is given to the object. P=mv, so the velocity is larger for the object, and larger velocity means a larger kinetic energy which would result in a larger change in the potential energy. Since K=0.5mv^2=U=mgh, a larger potential energy would have a larger change in height which means it has a larger angle θ with the vertical line. Comparing with the "pass arrow" and the "Embedded arrow", the embedded arrow gives the object a larger momentum, Pi=Pf (mv=(M+m)V), it gives all its original momentum to the two objects right now. (Arrow and the pumpkin), it would have a larger velocity. However for the pass arrow, it only gives partial of its original momentum and keeps some of them for the arrow to move, which means the pumpkin has less momentum, means less velocity, and less kinetic energy transferred into the potential energy, and means less change in height, less θangle.  So it is  Bounce1, pass3, emb2.
