Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels through space at the speed of light. This energy has an electric field and a magnetic field associated with it, and has wave-like properties. You could also call radiation “electromagnetic waves”.

In one contest at the county fair, a spring-loaded plunger launches a ball at a speed of 3.2m/s from one corner of a smooth, fla
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Speed of ball u=3.2\ m/s

Plane is inclined at an angle 20^{\circ}

To win the Game we need to hit the target at x=2.4\ m away

Launch angle of ball \theta

Motion of ball can be considered in two planes i.e. Vertical to the plane and horizontal to the plane

So Net acceleration in vertical plane is g\sin 20

Range of Projectile is given by

R=\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta }{g}

for R=2.4\ m

2.4=\frac{3.2^2\times sin 2\theta }{g\sin 20}

\sin 2\theta =\frac{2.4\times 9.8\times \sin 20}{3.2^2}

\sin 2\theta =0.7855

2\theta =51.77

\theta =25.88^{\circ}

so ball must be launched at an angle of 25.88^{\circ}

A student solving a physics problem for the range of a projectile has obtained the expression r= v20sin(2θ)g where v0=37.2meter/
DedPeter [7]

Formula of range is given by

R = \frac{v_o^2 sin2\theta}{g}

here given that

v_0=37.2m/s

θ=14.1∘

g=9.80m/s^2

now by above equation

R = \frac{37.2^2 sin2*14.1}{9.80}

R = 66.7 m

so range will be 66.1 m
