Vector c has a magnitude 24.6 m and is in the direction of the negative y-axis. vectors a and b are at angles α = 41.4° and β

= 27.7° up from the x-axis respectively. if the vector sum a b c = 0, what are the magnitudes of a and b?

The vector c has a magnitude of 24.6m and it is in the negative y direction. Therefore
\vec{c} = - 24.6 \hat{j}

The vector b is 41.4° up from the x-axis. Therefore
\vec{b} = b[cos(41.4^{o}) \hat{i} + sin(41.4^{o}) \hat{j} ] =b(0.75\hat{i} + 0.6613 \hat{j})

The vector a is 27.7° up from the x-axis. Therefore
\vec{a} = a[cos(22.7^{o})\hat{i} + sin(27.7^{o})\hat{j}] =  a(0.8854\hat{i} + 0.4648\hat{j})

Because \vec{a} +\vec{b} + \vec{c} = 0, the sum of the x and y components should be zero. Therefore,
For the x-component,
0.8854a + 0.75b = 0
 or
 a + 0.847b = 0                            (1)
For the y-component,
0.4648a + 0.6613b - 24.6 = 0
 or
 a + 1.4228b = 52.926                (2)

Subtract (1) from (2).
0.5758b = 52.926
b = 91.917
a = -0.847b = -77.854

Answer:
The magnitude of vector a is -77.85 m
The magnitude of vector b is 91.92 m

Calculate the acceleration using the formula acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

10 km/hr/s

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

For the car in this problem:

u = 0

v=60 km/h

t = 6 s

Substituting in the equation,

a=\frac{60 km/h-0}{6s}=10 km/h/s

A spaceship starting from a resting position accelerates at a constant rate of 9.8 m/s. How far will the spaceship travel if its
Dvinal [7]

300 000 0 squared = 2 x 9.8 distance

KINEMATICS

Uniform or constant motion in a straight line (rectilinear). Speed or velocity constant and/or acceleration constant. If motion is up and down and/or has an up and down component then acceleration omn earth will be g. g is about 10m/s/s.


speed = distance/time

velocity = displacement/time

s=distance ... u=initial speed ... v = final speed ... a = acceleration ... t = time


v=u+at

v^2=u^2+2as

s=ut+1/2at^2
