Answer:

B: Horizontally to the left

Explanation:

Horizontal velocity is always constant throughout the entire trajectory of the rocket and acts in the horizontal direction in which the rocket was launched. This is because gravity only acts in the downwards vertical direction.

So in order words at peak height, horizontal velocity is in the horizontal direction in which the rocket was launched.

So if it was to the left, then direction is left but if right, then direction is right.

Looking at the options, the most appropriate will be:

Horizontally to the left

A person in the back of a pick-up moving at 20 m/s relative to the Earth, throws a baseball with a speed of 15 m/s in a directio

Bumek [7]

Answer:

This is known as a Galilean transformation where

V' = V - U

Where the primed frame is the Earth frame and the unprimed frame is the frame moving with respect to the moving frame

V - speed of object in the unprimed frame

U - speed of primed frame with respect to the unprimed frame

Here we have:

V = -15 m/s speed of ball in the moving frame (the truck)

U = -20 m/s speed of primed (rest) frame with respect to moving frame

So V' = -15 - (-20) = 5 m/s

It may help if you draw a vector representing the moving frame and then add

a vector representing the speed of the ball in the moving frame.

Which runner has greater kinetic energy: a 45 kg runner moving at a speed of 7 m per second or a 93 kg runner moving at a

bagirrra123 [75]

Kinetic Energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)

First runner: KE = (1/2) (45kg) (49 m/s) = 1,102.5 Joules

Second runner: KE = (1/2) (93kg) (9 m/s) = 418.5 Joules

The <em>first runner </em><em>has 163</em>% more kinetic energy than the second runner has.

ANSWER FAST PLEASE HELP

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

B. 175 N

Explanation:

Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.

Mathematically, net force is given by the formula;

$Fnet = Fapp + Fg$

Where;

Fnet is the net force

Fapp is the applied force

Fg is the force due to gravitation

In this scenario, we observed that both forces are acting in the same direction.

Therefore:

Net force = 100 N + 75 N

Net force = 175 Newton

The relationship between frequency and period is...

Kazeer [188]

$\\$

Frequency, f, is how many cycles of an oscillation occur per second and is measured in cycles per second or hertz (Hz). The period of a wave, T, is the amount of time it takes a wave to vibrate one full cycle. These two terms are inversely proportional to each other: f = 1/T and T = 1/f.
