Answer:

$\theta=53.13^o$

Explanation:

<u>2-D Projectile Motion</u>

In 2-D motion, there are two separate components of the acceleration, velocity and displacement. The horizontal component has zero acceleration, while the acceleration in the vertical direction is always the acceleration due to gravity. The basic formulas for this type of movement are

$V_x=V_{ox}=V_ocos\theta$

$V_y=V_{oy}-gt=V_osin\theta-gt$

$x=V_{ox}t$

$\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{oy}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle x_{max}=\frac{2V_{ox}V_{oy}}{g}$

$\displaystyle y_{max}=\frac{V_{oy}^2}{2g}$

The projectile is fired in such a way that its horizontal range is equal to three times its maximum height. We need to find the angle \theta at which the object should be launched. The range is the maximum horizontal distance reached by the projectile, so we establish the base condition:

$x_{max}=3y_{max}$

$\displaystyle \frac{2V_{ox}V_{oy}}{g}=3\frac{V_{oy}^2}{2g}$

Using the formulas for $V_{ox}, V_{oy}:$

$\displaystyle \frac{2V_{o}cos\theta V_{o}sin\theta}{g}=3\frac{V_{o}^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

Simplifying

$4cos\theta sin\theta=3sin^2\theta$

Dividing by $sin\theta$

$4cos\theta=3sin\theta$

Rearranging

$tan\theta=\frac{4}{3}$

$\theta=arctan\frac{4}{3}$

$\theta=53.13^o$

What is the mass of an atom that has 2 protons, 3 neutrons, and 2 electrons

marusya05 [52]

You can find the mass of an atom by adding the number of protons and neutrons. In this case the atom has 2 protons and 3 neutrons so the mass is 5.

You watch a distant lady driving nails into her front porch at a regular rate of 1 stroke per second. You hear the sound of the

Igoryamba

Answer:

λ = 1360 m

Explanation:

Given data:

frequency of driving nails is given as 1 stroke per second mean at every 0.25 sec she hit the nails

speed of sound is given as 340 m/s

we know that the wave equation is given as

Speed = frequency × wavelength,

v = f × λ

where,

v = speed in meters/second (m/s)

f = frequency in Hertz (Hz)

substituing value to get wavelength of her driving nails

$340 m/s = (1Hz)\times \lambda$

$\lambda = \frac{340}{0.25}$

λ = 1360 m
