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 body with initial velocity 8.0 m/s moves along a straight line with constant acceleration and travels
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<em>(a) The average velocity is 16 m/s</em>

<em>(b) The acceleration is 0.4 m/s^2</em>

<em>(c) The final velocity is 24 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity (or the speed) of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, final speed is calculated as follows:

v_f=v_o+at\qquad\qquad [1]

The distance traveled by the object is given by:

\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}\qquad\qquad [2]

(a) The average velocity is defined as the total distance traveled divided by the time taken to travel that distance.

We know the distance is x=640 m and the time taken t= 40 s, thus:

\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{x}{t}=\frac{640}{40}=16

The average velocity is 16 m/s

Using the equation [1] we can solve for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

(c) From [2] we can solve for a:

\displaystyle a= 2\frac{x-v_ot}{t^2}

Since vo=8 m/s, x=640 m, t=40 s:

\displaystyle a= 2\frac{640-8\cdot 40}{40^2}=0.4

The acceleration is 0.4 m/s^2

(b) The final velocity is calculated by [1]:

v_f=8+0.4\cdot 40

v_f=8+16=24

The final velocity is 24 m/s

PLEASE HELP !! A 10 ohm resistor is connected to a 9V battery how much current is flowing through the circuit?
kompoz [17]

Resitance (R)= 10 Ohm

Potential difference (V) = 9V

V= IR

I= V/R

I= 9/10

I= 0.9 Ampere

Therefore 0.9 Ampere of current is flowing through the circuit.

Suppose that light from a laser with wavelength 633 nm is incident on a thin slit of width 0.500 mm. If the diffracted light pro
coldgirl [10]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Wavelength, \lambda=633\ nm=633\times 10^{-9}\ m

Slit width, a=0.5\ mm=0.0005\ m

Order, m = 2

If the diffracted light projects onto a screen at distance 1.50 m, L = 1.5 m

For the diffraction of light,

y=\dfrac{m\lambda L}{a}

y=\dfrac{2\times 633\times 10^{-9}\times 1.5}{0.0005}

y = 0.0037 m

So, the distance from the center of the diffraction pattern to the dark band is 0.0037 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

A pendulum is timed, first for 20 swings and then for
wlad13 [49]

w =  \frac{t(50) - t(20)}{50 - 20}  =  \frac{43.2 - 17.4}{50 - 20}

w =  \frac{25.8}{30}  = 0.86 \: sec \: per \: swing

The results may differ due to resistive forces that may be affecting the system by decelerating it or any other external forces that might accelerate it a bit.Or the timing could be a little inaccurate.
