An object is on a frictionless inclined plane The plane is inclined at an angle of 30 degrees with the horizontal What is the objects acceleration?
.50g
What is Trajectory?
A trajectory is the angle made with the horizontal when a projectile is fired. Suppose the projectile is a cannon ball. Assuming air is frictionless, that cannon ball will travel the greatest distance if the trajectory is 45 degrees from horizontal.
How to calculate pitch?
Either by degrees from the horizontal - or by foot rise per 1000 feet (or per mile).
What is the acceleration of the 25 kg crate which is pulled by a rope along a frictionless surface at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal if the tension on the rope is 120 N?
the force acting down the slope = sin 30 * 25 (kg) = 0.5 * 25 = 12.5 kg = (12.5 * 9.806 ) 122.575 newtons = resultant force of (122.575-120 ) 2.575 newtons downhill giving downhill acceleration of (using f=ma) 0.103 (m/s)/s
A boy is tobogganing down a smooth slope inclined at 20 degrees to horizontal find his acceleration assuming resistances can be neglected?
sin20 = a/g a = gsin20 a = 3.35ms^-2
Are there degrees of acceleration of a tornado?
Yes
A player kicks a soccer ball from ground level and sends it flying at an angle of 30 degrees?
13
What angle has the same horizontal displacment as 20 degrees?
20 degrees is a measure of angular displacement. This cannot be converted to lateral (horizontal) displacement.
Can velocity of an object be in different direction than the acceleration?
Yes. For example, a ball thrown vertically in the air has a positive velocity (upwards) but a negative acceleration due to gravity (downwards at ~9.81 m/s^2), until it begins to move downwards.
What are all horizontal lines parallel to?
other horizontal lines? which would be 180 degrees i guess.
Discuss the validity of extrapolating the acceleration value to an angle of 90?
Extrapolate the experimental values of acceleration, vs. angle of the incline, to find the acceleration when the angle of inclination = 90 degrees. The acceleration at 90 degrees will equal 9.81 m/s/s, since this is the free-fall acceleration.
What is the beam width of prv 11 radar in horizontal and vertical plane?
Horizontal beam width = 4.0 degrees Vertical beam width = 1.6 degrees
