A 0.560 kg snowball is fired from a cliff 14.2 m high with an initial velocity of 13.3 m/s, directed 26.0° above the horizontal.

enot [183]

Answer:

a) v = 21.34 m/s

b) v = 21.34 m/s

c) v = 21.34 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of the snowball, m = 0.560 kg

Height of the cliff, h = 14.2 m

Initial velocity of the ball, u = 13.3 m/s

θ = 26°

The speed of the slow ball as it reaches the ground, v = ?

The initial Kinetic energy of the snow ball, $KE_{0} = 0.5 mu^{2}$

Potential energy of the snow ball at the given height, PE = mgh

Final Kinetic energy of the ball as it reaches the ground, $KE_{f} = 0.5mv^{2}$

a) Using the principle of energy conservation,

$KE_{0} + PE = KE_{f} \\0.5mu^{2} + mgh = 0.5mv^{2}\\v^{2} =2( 0.5u^{2} + gh)\\v^{2} =u^{2} + 2gh\\v = \sqrt{u^{2} + 2gh} \\v = \sqrt{13.3^{2} + 2*9.8*14.2}\\v = 21.34 m/s$

b) The speed remains v = 21.34 m/s since it is not a function of the angle of launch

c)The principle of energy conservation used cancels out the mass of the object, therefore the speed is not dependent on mass

v = 21. 34 m/s

You are boiling a pot of water on an electric stove. The pot sits directly on the heating coil and is primarily heated by:______

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

conduction

Explanation:

conduction is a form of heat transfer whereby heat is transferred by direct contact between the heat source and the object to be heated. In the question it is stated that the pot sits directly (direct contact) on the heating coil (heat source) and the pot (object to be heated).

Can someone help????

ipn [44]

Answer:

15) C

14) When the density of the object is less than that of the liquid, it floats on the liquid because the upthrust or buoyant force of water is more than the gravity acting on the object. so option A is the best choice out of all.

Here are the positions at three different times for a bee in flight(a bee's top speed is about 7 m/s).

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

(a) see attachment below

(b) see attachment below

(c) the average velocity in part (a) is a better estimate than that in part (b) because it was calculated for a shorter time interval compared to part (b). The basically definition of instantaneous velocity is that it is the limit of the average velocity as the time interview approaches zero (that is as the time interview becomes smaller and smaller). In other words the shorter the time interview the better the accuracy of the result.

(d) see attachment below.

Explanation:

Check the attachment below for the full solution of this problems.

A boy walks from point C to point D which is 50 m apart. Then, he walks back to point C. what is his displacement of his whole j

enyata [817]

Answer: D. 0 m

Explanation:

Concept:

Here, we need to know the concept of displacement.

Displacement is defined to be the change in position of an object.

The difference between displacement and distance is the total movement of an object without any regard to direction, while displacement is the pure change of position.

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.

Solve:

STEP ONE: the boy walks from point C to point D (a distance of 50 m)

C ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ D

50 m

STEP TWO: the boy walks from point D to point C (a distance of 50 m)

D ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ C

50 m

STEP THREE: find the displacement

The boy started with point C

The boy ended with point C

He did not change his position throughout the journey.

Therefore, his displacement is 0 m.

Hope this helps!! :)
