Answer:

h= 2582.9 m

Explanation:

bullet kinematics:  bullet moves with uniformly accelerated movement in freefall  

The negative sign in the equation indicates that the acceleration (g) is in the direction opposite to the movement of the  bullet.

v f₁²=v₀²-2g*h₁  Equation (1))

h: hight in meters (m)  

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

vf: final speed in m/s  

Known data

v₀=  225 m/s

g= 9.8 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

Problem development

When the  bulletl reaches the maximum height the final speed is equal to zero. vf=0

We replace data in the equation (1)

v f₁²=v₀²-2g*h₁

0 =  (225)²-2*9.8*h

2*9.8*h=(225)²

h= (225)²/ (2*9.8)

h= 2582.9 m

An object is placed on a surface. A student tries to apply various combinations of forces on the object. Which pair of forces wi
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, as there are no diagrams or options to provide more information to the question.

The general explanation is as follows:

For the object not to move

(1): The forces acting on the object must opposite each other. i.e. if force A acts at the right (or positive direction), force B will act at the left (or negative direction).

(2) The two forces must be equal.

So, for instance:

If the pair of forces are 5N and 5N in opposite directions, the object wil not move.

However, if one of the forces is greater, the object will move towards the direction of the greater force.

At the surface of Jupiter's moon Io, the acceleration due to gravity is 1.81 m/s2 . A watermelon has a weight of 54.0 N at the s
butalik [34]

Answer:

m=5.51Kg

Explanation:

The weight of an object on Earth is given by W=mg, so we can calculate its mass by doing m=W/g, which for our values is:

m=(54N)/(9.8m/s^2)=5.51Kg

<em>Nothing is being asked</em> about Io but if one wanted to know the weight <em>W'</em> of the watermelon there one just have to do:

W'=ma=(5.51Kg)(1.81m/s^2)=9.97N

Two ropes have equal length and are stretched the same way. The speed of a pulse on rope 1 is 1.4 times the speed on rope 2. Par
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

m1/m2 = 0.51

Explanation:

First to all, let's gather the data. We know that both rods, have the same length. Now, the expression to use here is the following:

V = √F/u

This is the equation that describes the relation between speed of a pulse and a force exerted on it.

the value of "u" is:

u = m/L

Where m is the mass of the rod, and L the length.

Now, for the rod 1:

V1 = √F/u1 (1)

rod 2:

V2 = √F/u2 (2)

Now, let's express V1 in function of V2, because we know that V1 is 1.4 times the speed of rod 2, so, V1 = 1.4V2. Replacing in the equation (1) we have:

1.4V2 = √F/u1 (3)

Replacing (2) in (3):

1.4(√F/u2) = √F/u1 (4)

Now, let's solve the equation 4:

[1.4(√F/u2)]² = F/u1

1.96(F/u2) =F/u1

1.96F = F*u2/u1

1.96 = u2/u1 (5)

Now, replacing the expression of u into (5) we have the following:

1.96 = m2/L / m1/L

1.96 = m2/m1 (6)

But we need m1/m2 so:

1.96m1 = m2

m1/m2 = 1/1.96

m1/m2 = 0.51
