Answer:

0.23 J

Explanation:

k*(36 - 28) = 23

so k = 23/8 N/cm

W = k(32 - 28)²/2 = 23/8 * 4²/2 = 23 N-cm = 0.23 J

State and explain the kinetic theory of motion

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: Kinetic theory or kinetic theory of gases attempts to explain overall properties of gases, such as pressure, temperature, or volume, by considering their molecular composition and motion. The theory basically states that pressure is not caused by molecules pushing each other away, like earlier scientists thought.

A projectile, fired with unknown initial velocity, lands 20sec later on side of hill, 3000m away horizontally and 450m verticall

lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation:

Given:

t = 20 seconds

x = 3000 m

y = 450 m

a) To find the vertical component of the initial velocity $v_{0y}$ , we can use the equation

$y = v_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Solving for $v_{0y}$ ,

$v_{0y} = \dfrac{y + \frac{1}{2}gt^2}{t}$

$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=\dfrac{(450\:\text{m}) + \frac{1}{2}(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)(20\:\text{s})^2}{(20\:\text{s})}$

$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=120.5\:\text{m/s}$

b) We can solve for the horizontal component of the velocity $v_{0x}$ as

$x = v_{0x}t \Rightarrow v_{0x} = \dfrac{x}{t} = \dfrac{3000\:\text{m}}{20\:\text{s}}$

or

$v_{0x} = 150\:\text{m/s}$
