Vector C has a magnitude of 24.6 m and points in the − y ‑ direction. Vectors A and B both have positive y ‑ components, and mak

e angles of α = 44.9 ° and β = 27.7 ° with the positive and negative x - axis, respectively. If the vector sum A + B + C = 0 , what are the magnitudes of A and B ?

Answer:

A= 61.35

B= -44.40

Explanation:

1. Using the components method we have:

A_{x}= A cos \alpha\\B_{x}= B cos \beta\\C_{x}= 0\\\\A_{y}= A sin \alpha\\B_{y}= B sin \beta\\C_{y}= 24.6\\

Considering that the vector sum A+B+C=0, then:

|V|=\sqrt{V_{x}^{2} +V_{y}^{2} }=0

Then:

V_{x} ^{2} =0; V_{x} =0\\V_{y} ^{2} =0; V_{y} =0

It means the value of x and y component is 0.

2. Determinate the equations that describe each component:

V_{x}= A cos \alpha -B cos \beta=0  (1)\\V_{y}= A sin \alpha +B sin \beta - C=0   (2)

Form Eq. (1):

A=B \frac{cos \beta}{cos \alpha}     (3)

Replacing A in Eq. (2):

(B\frac{cos \beta}{cos \alpha})(sin \alpha)+ B sin\beta-C=0\\(B\frac{cos \beta}{cos \alpha})(sin \alpha)+ B sin\beta-=C\\\\B(\frac{cos \beta. sin \alpha}{cos \alpha}+ sin\beta)=C\\B=C(\frac{cos \beta. sin \alpha}{cos \alpha}+ sin\beta)^{-1}     (4)

Replacing values of C, α and β in (4):

B= 24.6 (\frac{(cos 27.7)(sin 44.9)}{cos 44.9}+sin 27.7)^{-1}  \\B= -44.4

Replacing value of B in (3)

A=-44.40\frac{cos 27.7}{sin 49.9} \\A= 61.35

A cruise ship is having troubles with buoyancy. What is a reasonable solution? A. Increase the weight of the ship above water B.
Setler [38]

If a cruise ship is having troubles with buoyancy, then spread the weight of the ship over a greater volume.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

Buoyancy is the upward thrusting phenomenon of water acting on any object immersed partially or fully in water body. Hence, it creates the buoyant forces that is inversely proportionate to the immersing body's density. If the immersing body's density is higher than the density of the immersing medium then the body will get completely immersed in the water.

Similarly, in case of less, the buoyant forces act on the body will prevent it from complete immersion and allow it to float on water. Mostly cruise ships and other navy vessels use this phenomenon to keep on floating on surface of water.

In the present condition, the solution for buoyancy problem faced by a cruise ship can be solved by decreasing the density of the ship. And the ship's density can be decreased by increasing the ship's volume or by spreading the ship's weight over a greater volume.

How can you tell if an igneous rock has an intrusive or extrusive origin?
wariber [46]

Intrusive igneous rocks cool down from magma slowly because they form underneath the surface, that will make them have large crystals.

Extrusive igneous rocks cool down from lava rapidly because they form at the surface, so that will make them have small crystals.
