Answer:

1299N

Explanation:

GIven data

Weight W= 1500N

Angle Ф= 30°

The applied force up the frictionless ramp is gotten by applying the formula below

F= WcosФ

substitute

F=1500 cos 30

F = 1500*0.8660

F= 1299N

Hence the applied force is 1299N

A ball is launched from ground level at 20 m/s at an angle of 40° above the
DedPeter [7]

(a) The ball's height <em>y</em> at time <em>t</em> is given by

<em>y</em> = (20 m/s) sin(40º) <em>t</em> - 1/2 <em>g t</em> ²

where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. Solve <em>y</em> = 0 for <em>t</em> :

0 = (20 m/s) sin(40º) <em>t</em> - 1/2 <em>g t</em> ²

0 = <em>t</em> ((20 m/s) sin(40º) - 1/2 <em>g t</em> )

<em>t</em> = 0   or   (20 m/s) sin(40º) - 1/2 <em>g t</em> = 0

The first time refers to where the ball is initially launched, so we omit that solution.

(20 m/s) sin(40º) = 1/2 <em>g t</em>

<em>t</em> = (40 m/s) sin(40º) / <em>g</em>

<em>t</em> ≈ 2.6 s

(b) At its maximum height, the ball has zero vertical velocity. In the vertical direction, the ball is in free fall and only subject to the downward acceleration <em>g</em>. So

0² - ((20 m/s) sin(40º))² = 2 (-<em>g</em>) <em>y</em>

where <em>y</em> in this equation refers to the maximum height of the ball. Solve for <em>y</em> :

<em>y</em> = ((20 m/s) sin(40º))² / (2<em>g</em>)

<em>y</em> ≈ 8.4 m

Volcanic eruptions are natural phenomena in the . They sometimes erupt, spilling out lava and dust. The lava solidifies, forming
solniwko [45]

Answer:

B. Geosphere

A. Biosphere

A. Atmosphere

Explanation:

Volcanic eruptions occurs within the Geosphere. The geosphere is the rock solid earth make up of rocks that extends into the deep interior.

Magma formed deep within the crust rises to elevated parts and finally erupts as lava on the surface. When they cool, they solidify to form volcanic rocks.

The volcanic eruptions affects the biosphere significantly. The biosphere is the portion of the earth where all life forms exists.

Gases and ash spewed during an eruption into the atmosphere causes severe changes to weather and leads to pollution. The atmosphere is the gaseous envelope round the earth.

Why does it rain a lot?
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets. ... As more and more droplets join together they become too heavy and fall from the cloud as rain. Warm air can hold more moisture than cool air. When the warmer air is cooled and the moisture condenses, it often rains more heavily.

You then measure Polly's internal temperature to be 13oC, which is quite a drop from the normal human body temperature of 37oC.
ankoles [38]

Answer:

The specific heat is 3.47222 J/kg°C.

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature = 13°C

Temperature = 37°C

Mass = 60 Kg

Energy = 5000 J

We need to calculate the specific heat

Using formula of energy

Q= mc\Delta T

c =\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}

Put the value into the formula

c=\dfrac{5000}{60\times(37-13)}

c=3.47222\ J/kg^{\circ}C

Hence, The specific heat is 3.47222 J/kg°C.
