Explanation:

            A projectile motion may be defined as that form of a motion that is experienced by an object or a particle which is projected near the surface of the Earth and the particle moves along the curved path  subjected to gravity force only.

           Thus a projectile motion is always acted upon by a constant acceleration due to gravity in the down ward direction.

             In the context, Quinn shoots two particle x and y from his sling shot and he observes that both his projectiles travels in a parabola curve in the air. Both the object x and y touches the ground a distance apart from him which is known as the range and it depends upon the velocity of the projectile. Both the projectile reaches a maximum height and then drop on the ground in a parabola shape.

A 5.0-g marble is released from rest in the deep end of a swimming pool. An underwater video reveals that its terminal speed in
Temka [501]

Answer:

a) a = -g = 9.8 m/s² , b) a = 0 m/s² and c)   t1 = 0.0213 s

Explanation:

a) At the moment the marble is released its velocity is zero, so it has no resistance force, the only force acting is its weight, so the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

       a = -g = 9.8 m / s²

b) When the marble goes its terminal velocity all forces have been equalized, therefore, the sum of them is zero and consequently if acceleration is also zero

      a = 0 m / s²

c) We have to assume a specific type of resistive force, for liquid in general the resistive force is proportional to the speed of the body.

The expression of this situation is

         v = mg / b (1 -e^{-bt/m} )

For a very long time the exponential is zero, so the terminal velocity is

        v_{T} = mg / b

        b = mg /  v_{T}

        b = 5 10-3 9.8 / 0.3

        b = 0.163

We already have all the data to calculate the time for v = ½ v_{T}

        ½ v_{T} = v_{T} (1 -e^{-bt/m})

        ½ = 1- e (- 0.163 t1 / 5 10-3)

        e (-32.6 t1) = 1-0.5              (by  ln())

       -32.6 t1 = ln 0.5

       t1 = -1 / 32.6 (-0.693)

       t1 = 0.0213 s

A wave travels through a medium at 251 m/s and has a wavelength of 5.10 cm. What is its frequency? What is its angular frequency
allochka39001 [22]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of a wave, v = 251 m/s

Wavelength of the wave, λ = 5.1 cm = 0.051 m

(1) The frequency of the wave is given by :

\nu=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}

\nu=\dfrac{251\ m/s}{0.051\ m}

\nu=4921.56\ Hz

(2) Angular frequency of the wave is given by :

\omega=2\pi\nu

\omega=2\pi\times 4921.56\ Hz

\omega=30923.07\ rad/s

(3) The period of oscillation is given by T as :

T=\dfrac{1}{\nu}

T=\dfrac{1}{4921.56}

T = 0.000203 seconds

or

T = 0.203 milliseconds

Hence, this is the required solution.

An astronaut hits a golf ball of mass m on the Moon, where there is no atmosphere and the acceleration due to gravity is g 6 , w
sasho [114]

Answer:

The magnitude of the average force exerted by the club on the ball during contact = mv/t

Explanation:

Impulse exerted on the ball = Momentum of the ball = mass * velocity = m*v

As we know,  

m*v = Integration of F.dt with limits 0 to T

Ft = mv

F = mv/t

The magnitude of the average force exerted by the club on the ball during contact = mv/t

The graph indicates Linda’s walk.
Sedaia [141]
I think the right answer is the first one. If she stops moving her Position does not change any more-and the Graph Shows that after 6 seconds she stays at the Position of 5 m. If she Went Back to the start point the Graph would have Developed Back to 0m(decreased).

A projectile has an initial horizontal velocity of 15 meters per second and an initial vertical velocity of 25 meters per second
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

75 m

Explanation:

The horizontal motion of the projectile is a uniform motion with constant speed, since there are no forces acting along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the horizontal acceleration is zero.

The horizontal component of the velocity of the projectile is

v_x = 15 m/s

and it is constant during the motion;

the total time of flight is

t = 5 s

Therefore, we can apply the formula of the uniform motion to find the horizontal displacement of the projectile:

d= v_x t =(15 m/s)(5 s)=75 m
