A projectile is launched at ground level with an initial speed of 50.0m/s at an angle of 30° above the horizontal. It strikes a
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

x = 129.9 m

y = 30.9 m

Explanation:

When an object is thrown into the air under the effect of the gravitational force, the movement of the projectile is observed. Then it can be considered as two separate motions, horizontal motion and vertical motion. Both motions are different, so that they can be handled independently.

Given data:

v_{i} = 50 m/s

Angle = 30°

Time = t = 3 s

horizontal component of velocity = v_{i_{x}} = v_{i}cos30°

v_{i_{x}} = 50cos30°

v_{i_{x}} = 43.3 m/s

Vertical component of velocity = v_{i_{y}} = v_{i}Sin30°

v_{i_{y}} = 50Sin30°

v_{i_{y}} = 25 m/s

This is a projectile motion, and we know that in projectile motion the horizontal component of the velocity remain constant throughout his motion. So there is no acceleration along horizontal path.

But the vertical component of velocity varies with time and there is an acceleration along vertical direction which is equal to gravitational acceleration g.

Horizontal distance = x =  v_{i_{x}}t

x =  43.3*3

x = 129.9 m

Vertical Distance = y = v_{i_{y}}t -0.5gt²

y = 25*3 - 0.5*9.8*3²

y = 75 - 44.1

y = 30.9 m

Assuming a nearly frictionless ride, what can you say about a roller coaster’s potential and kinetic energy from the top to the
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
The mechanical energy of the roller coaster is sum of kinetic energy K and gravitational potential energy U:
E=K+U
where
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 is the kinetic energy
U=mgh is the gravitational potential energy

Since the ride is frictionless, the total mechanical energy E is conserved during the ride. Therefore, at the top of the hill, the potential energy is maximum, because h (the height) is maximum, and this means the kinetic energy is minimum (because the sum of K and U is constant), so the velocity will be minimum. Viceversa, at the bottom of the hill, the potential energy will be minimum (because h is minimum), so the kinetic energy K will be maximum, and the velocity v of the roller coaster will be maximum.

For each question, select the right answer from the choices below:
Leni [432]

Option (ii) B is the correct option. The object on the moon has greater mass.

To resolve this, utilize the formulas Force = Mass * Acceleration.

The equation can be used to find the mass given the force in Newtons, using 9.8 m/s² for the acceleration of gravity of the earth and 1.6 m/s² for the moon.

Calculating the mass on earth:

30 N = 9.8 m/s² * mass

This results in a mass of 3.0 kg for the object on Earth.

Calculating the mass of the moon:

30 N = 1.6 m/s²2 * mass

Thus, the moon's object has a mass of 19. kg.

This can be explained by the fact that the earth has a stronger gravitational pull than the moon, producing more force per kilogram of mass. As a result, the moon's mass must be bigger to produce the same amount of force at a lower acceleration from gravity (1.6 m/s² vs. 9.8 m/s²).

Which point on the roller coaster's path represents the maximum potential energy?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Point A (Maximum height)

Explanation:

Potential energy is given as the product of mass, height and acceleration due to gravity hence expressed as mgh where m is the mass of roller coaster, h is the height and g is acceleration due to gravity. Since the mass and g are constant for a roller coaster, the main factor that will influence the magnitude of energy is the height. The higher the height, the higher the potential energy and vice versa. Using the attached image, the highest point is point A
