The resultant vector is 5.2 cm at a direction of 12⁰ west of north.

<h3>Resultant of the two vectors</h3>

The resultant of the two vectors is calculated as follows;

R = a² + b² - 2ab cos(θ)

where;

  • θ is the angle between the two vectors =  45° + (90 - 57) = 78⁰
  • a is the first vector
  • b is the second vector

R² = (3.7)² + (4.5)² - (2 x 3.7 x 4.5) cos(78)

R² = 27.02

R = 5.2 cm

<h3>Direction of the vector</h3>

θ = 90 - 78⁰

θ = 12⁰

Thus, the resultant vector is 5.2 cm at a direction of 12⁰ west of north.

Does a generator start a Direct Current?
lesya [120]
A direct-current (DC) generator is a rotating machine that supplies an electrical output with unidirectional voltage and current. ... The field is produced by direct current in field coils or by permanent magnets on the stator. The output, or armature, windings are placed in slots in the cylindrical iron rotor.

You are designing a 108 cm3 right circular cylindrical can whose manufacture will take waste into account. There is no waste in
FinnZ [79.3K]

Explanation:

It is given that,

The volume of a right circular cylindrical, V=108\ cm^3

We know that the volume of the cylinder is given by :

V=\pi r^2 h

108=\pi r^2 h    

h=\dfrac{108}{\pi r^2}............(1)

The upper area is given by :

A=32r^2+2\pi rh

A=32r^2+2\pi r\times \dfrac{108}{\pi r^2}

A=32r^2+\dfrac{216}{r}

For maximum area, differentiate above equation wrt r such that, we get :

\dfrac{dA}{dr}=64r-\dfrac{216}{r^2}

64r-\dfrac{216}{r^2}=0

r^3=\dfrac{216}{64}

r = 1.83 m

Dividing equation (1) with r such that,

\dfrac{h}{r}=\dfrac{108}{\pi r}

\dfrac{h}{r}=\dfrac{108}{\pi 1.83}

\dfrac{h}{r}=59 \pi

Hence, this is the required solution.

a 905 - g meteor impacts the earth at a speed of 1623 m/s. if all of its energy is entirely converted to heat in the meteor, wha
nlexa [21]

Answer: 2859.78 k

Explanation: By using the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the meteor equals the heat energy.

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv^2

Heat energy = mcΔθ

Where m = mass of meteor , v = velocity of meteor = 1623 m/s

c = specific heat capacity of meteor (iron) = 460.548 j/kg/k

Δθ = change in temperature of meteor = ?

From law ofconservation of energy, we have that

1/2mv^2 = mcΔθ

By cancelling "m" on both sides, we have that

v^2/2 = cΔθ

v^2 = 2cΔθ

(1623)^2 = 2× 460.548 × Δθ

2634129 = 921.096 × Δθ

Δθ = 2634129 / 921.096

Δθ = 2859.78 k
