The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.

The question can be solved, using Newton's second law of motion.

Note: Momentum of the cannon = momentum of the cannonball.

<h3>Formula:</h3>
  • MV = mv................. Equation 1

<h3>Where:</h3>
  • M = mass of the cannon
  • m = mass of the cannonball
  • V = velocity of the cannon
  • v = velocity of the cannonball

Make v the subject of the equation.

  • v = MV/m................ Equation 2

From the question,

<h3>Given: </h3>
  • M = 500 kg
  • V = 3 m/s
  • m = 10 kg.

Substitute these values into equation 2.

  • v = (500×3)/10
  • v = 150 m/s.

 

Hence, The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.

A boy whirls a stone in a horizontal circle of radius 1.1 m and at height 2.1 m above ground level. The string breaks, and the s
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

212.8 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Time taken by stone to cover horizontal distance

t=\sqrt{\frac {2h}{g}} where t is time, h is height of whirling the stone in horizontal circle, g is gravitational constant, Substituting h for 2.1 m and g for 9.81

t=\sqrt{\frac {2*2.1}{9.81}}= 0.654654 seconds

t=0.65 s

Velocity, v= distance/time

v=10/0.65= 15.27525 m/s

v=15.3 m/s

a=\frac {v^{2}}{r} where r is radius of circle, substituting r with 1.1m

a=\frac {15.3^{2}}{1.1}

a=212.8 m/s^{2}

Therefore, centripetal acceleration is 212.8 m/s^{2}

A particle was moving in a straight line at 172.8 km/hr. If it decelerated over 120 meters to come to rest, find the time taken
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

v=s/t

s=vt

t=s/v

t=(120×10‐³)/172.8

(the distance meters has been changed to kilometres)

t=1/1440 hrs

The ocean’s tides are not only affected by the shape of the coastlines, or slope of the ocean floor, but also by the gravitation
dexar [7]

Answer:

a) According to Newton's law of gravitation, as the distance between the Moon and the Earth decreases, the gravitational attraction increases and vice versa

The gravitational force of the Moon on the Earth causes the Earth to be slightly bulged on the side directly facing the Moon

The gravitational force also pulls the water bodies on the Earth's surface towards the Moon in the same manner and the effect is more pronounced due to the ability of the liquid water to assume a shape based on the magnitude of the gravitational field attracting it

Therefore, the region where the Moon is closest to the Earth we have a high tide as the water level rises and the region which is perpendicular to where the Moon is located has a  low tide

b) The two special types of tides are

1) The neap tide

2) The spring tide

Neap tide

Neap tide occurs when the Sun and Moon are 90° apart from each other when they are viewed by an observer from Earth

The gravitational pull of the Sun cancels (partially) the effect of the gravitational pull and tidal force of the Moon, resulting in minimum tidal range

Spring Tide

Spring tide occurs when the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun are simultaneously inline, such that the Sun reinforces the gravitational pull and tidal force of the Moon, resulting in a maximum tidal range
