Answer:

It is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a given reference material.

Explanation:

Specific gravity is also known as relative density.

To find the relative density of substance, you:

Divide the density of substance measured

And divide that by the density of the reference

An object islaunched at velocity of 20 m/s in a direction making an angle of 25 degree upward with the horizontal. what is the m

Aneli [31]

Answer:

$\displaystyle y_m=3.65m$

Explanation:

Motion in The Plane

When an object is launched in free air with some angle respect to the horizontal, it describes a known parabolic path, comes to a maximum height and finally drops back to the ground level at a certain distance from the launching place.

The movement is split into two components: the horizontal component with constant speed and the vertical component with variable speed, modified by the acceleration of gravity. If we are given the values of $v_o$ and $\theta\\$ as the initial speed and angle, then we have

$\displaystyle v_x=v_o\ cos\theta$

$\displaystyle v_y=v_o\ sin\theta-gt$

$\displaystyle x=v_o\ cos\theta\ t$

$\displaystyle y=v_o\ sin\theta\ t -\frac{gt^2}{2}$

If we want to know the maximum height reached by the object, we find the value of t when $v_y$ becomes zero, because the object stops going up and starts going down
