A snowball is thrown with an initial x velocity of 7.5 m/s and an initial y velocity of 8.4 m/s . Part A How much time is requir
elena55 [62]

In order to calculate the time taken by the snowball to reach the highest point in its journey, we need to consider the variables along the y-direction.

Let us list out what we know from the question so that we can decide on the equation to be used.

We know that Initial Y VelocityV_{iy} = 8.4 m/s

Acceleration in the Y direction a_{y} = -9.8 m/s^{2}, since the acceleration due to gravity points in the downward direction.

Final Y Velocity V_{fy} = 0 because at the highest point in its path, an object comes to rest momentarily before falling down.

Time taken t = ?

From the list above, it is easy to see that the equation that best suits our purpose here is V_{fy} = V_{iy} + a_{y}t

Plugging in the numbers, we get 0 = 8.4 - (9.8)t

Solving for t, we get t = 0.857 s

Therefore, the snowball takes 0.86 seconds to reach its highest point.

A car is traveling at 20 meters/second and is brought to rest by applying brakes over a period of 4 seconds. What is its average
frez [133]
 (u) = 20 m/s 
(v) = 0 m/s 
<span> (t) = 4 s 
</span>
<span>0 = 20 + a(4) 

</span><span>4 x a = -20 
</span>
so, the answer is <span>-5 m/s^2. or -5 meter per second</span>

How are electromagnetic waves different from sound or water waves?
Annette [7]

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are different from sound or water waves in such a way that water and sound waves are called mechanical waves that requires a material medium for their propagation.

Electromagnetic waves do no require a material medium for propagation.

  • Electromagnetic waves are carried or transported by radiation and this can be passed through vacuums and different other materials.
  • But mechanical waves such as water and sound waves requires a material medium for their propagation.
  • They cannot pass through a vacuum.

How does reflection differ from refraction and diffraction?
shtirl [24]

Answer: Reflection is the only process in which the wave does not continue moving forward.

Explanation:

Reflection is a process in which the direction of the wave changes when it is exposed to a bounce off barrier. Refraction can be defined as the change in the direction of the wave when the wave passes through one medium to another. Diffraction is a process in which the direction of the wave changes when the wave passes through a particular opening near the barrier.

A spearfisher stands in shallow water and sees a fish a few feet in front of her. She throws her spear directly toward the posit
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

the spear will end up above the fish relative to the actual position of the fish.

Explanation:

due to refraction of light coming from the fish the fish will appear slightly above from its real position

So due to this refraction the spearfisher will throw the spear directly at the image of the fish due to which it will not reach the position of fish but it will reach the position above the fish.

So here we can say that the spear will end up above the fish relative to the actual position of the fish
