Why does air resistance alter the landin location of an object? in projectile motion​

Physics
1 answer:
Dominik [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

In the vertical, air resistance reduces the maximum height attained and therefore also the time of the flight.

In the horizontal, air resistance reduces the range due to direct action and indirectly because the time of flight is reduced due to vertical air resistance.

ankoles [38]

Answer:

d=510.2m

t=10.2s

Explanation:

The formulas for accelerated motion are:

v=v_0+at\\x=x_0+v_0t+\frac{at^2}{2}

From them we can get v^2=v_0^2+2ad.

We have:

v-v_0=at\\t=\frac{v-v_0}{a}

And substitute:

x=x_0+v_0(\frac{v-v_0}{a})+\frac{a}{2}(\frac{v-v_0}{a})^2\\x-x_0=\frac{v_0(v-v_0)}{a}+\frac{(v-v_0)^2}{2a}

We multiply both sides by 2a, and continue:

2a(x-x_0)=2v_0(v-v_0)+(v-v_0)^2=2v_0v-2v_0^2+v^2+v_0^2-2vv_0=v^2-v_0^2

Being d the displacement x-x_0, we have v^2=v_0^2+2ad

For our exercise, we will write this as:

d=\frac{v^2-v_0^2}{2a}

And taking upwards direction positive and imposing final velocity 0m/s (for maximum height), we have:

d=\frac{-v_0^2}{2a}=\frac{-(100m/s)^2}{2(-9,8m/s^2)}=510.2m

For the time we use:

t=\frac{v-v_0}{a}=\frac{-v_0}{a}=\frac{-(100m/s)}{(-9.8m/s^2)}=10.2s

A jewellery melts 500g of Silver to pour into a mould. Calculate how much energy was released as the silver solidified.
irga5000 [103]

When silver is poured into the mould the it will solidify

In this process the phase of the Silver block will change from liquid to solid.

This phase change will lead to release in heat and this heat is known as latent heat of fusion.

The formula to find the latent heat of fusion is given as

Q = mL

here given that

m = mass = 500 g

L = 111 kJ/kg

now we can find the heat released

Q = 0.5 * 111 kJ

Q = 55.5 kJ

So it will release total heat of 55.5 kJ when it will solidify

A certain parallel-plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric for which Κ = 5.5 .The area of each plate is 0.034 m2 , and the p
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor is  6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

Explanation:

Given that,

dielectric constant k = 5.5

the area of each plate, A = 0.034 m²

separating distance, d =  2.0 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

magnitude of the electric field =  200 kN/C

Capacitance of the capacitor is calculated as follows;

C = \frac{k \epsilon A}{d} = \frac{5.5*8.85*10^{-12}*0.034}{2*10^{-3}} = 8.275 *10^{-10} \ F

Maximum potential difference:

V = E x d

V = 200000 x 2 x 10⁻³ = 400 V

Maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor:

E = ¹/₂CV²

E = ¹/₂ x 8.275 x 10⁻¹⁰ x (400)²

E = 6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

Therefore, the maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor is  6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J
