Answer: Horizontal speed=5m/s

Explanation:

Speed= distance / time

Speed of object = 5m/s

Distance = 5m/s/1second= 5m

Speed = 5m× 1sec=5m/s

Horizontal speed after 1 second is 5m/s

Speed is not a vector so horizontal speed does not sighify anything. If u meant velocity it vill be same as the initial velocity in horizontal direction

The seismic activity density of a region is the ratio of the number of earthquakes during a given time span to the land area aff
Natalija [7]

Answer:

0.0059

Explanation:

According to the question the seismic activity density is given by

\text{Seismic activity density}=\frac{\text{Number of Earthquakes over a given time span}}{\text{The land area affected}}

Here,

Number of Earthquakes over a given time span = 424

The land area affected = 71300 mi²

So,

\text{Seismic activity density}=\frac{424}{71300}\\\Rightarrow \text{Seismic activity density}=0.0059

The seismic activity density is 0.0059

Identical cannon balls are fired with the same force, one each from four cannons having respective bore lengths of 1.0 meter, 2.
Gala2k [10]

To answer this question, we must bear in mind the following considerations that are mentioned in the statement:

The cannon balls are identical and shoot with the same force

The force acting on the cannonball increases with the length of the hole.

You want to know which cannon will have the least momentum on the ball.

Then, the force on the ball increases as the barrel length increases and the impulse depends on the magnitude of the force, then, the cannon that will have the minimum impulse will be the 1 meter one.

The answer is option B.

A frog leaps up from the ground and lands on a step 0.1 m above the ground 2 s later. We want to find the
mash [69]

Answer:

\Delta x = v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the following suvat equation:

\Delta x = v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

\Delta x is the vertical displacement of the frog

v_0 is the initial vertical velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

We have chosen this formula because apart from v_0, all the other quantities are known. In fact:

\Delta x =0.1 m is the vertical displacement

t = 2 s is the total time of flight

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity (negative because it is downward)

Therefore, solving for v_0, we find the initial velocity of the frog:

v_0 = \frac{\Delta x-\frac{1}{2}at^2}{t}=\frac{0.1-\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(2)^2}{2}=9.85 m/s

When calculating the mechanical advantage of a lever, what two pieces of information are needed?
DIA [1.3K]
From the items on this list, the only one that allows calculation
of the mechanical advantage is 'B' ... the lengths from the fulcrum
to the effort and the resistance.

The MA can also be calculated when you know the two forces ...
the effort and the resistance ... when the lever is just balanced.
