An astronaut on a space walk floats a little too far away from the space station. Without air to push against, he cannot paddle

Artyom0805 [142]

He can throw the hammer in the direction opposite to the direction he wants to travel in. The hammer will exert an equal and opposite force on him, as per Newton's third law, and this will help him move towards the space station.

Why does static friction have a maximum value

Naddik [55]

Answer:

If you push horizontally with a small force, static friction establishes an equal and opposite force that keeps the book at rest. As you push harder, the static friction force increases to match the force. Eventually maximum static friction force is exceeded and the book moves.

A hiker begins a trip by first walking 25.0 km southeast from her car. She stops and sets up her tent for the night. On the seco

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

(a)

$x_1=17.68km\\y_1=-17.68km\\x_2=20km\\y_2=34.64km$

(b) $r=41.32km$

$\alpha =24.23^o$

Explanation:

Let us take the north direction to be the positive y-axis and the east to be positive x-axis.

First day:

25.0 km southeast, which implies $45^o$ south of east. The y-component will be negative and the x-component will be positive.

$x_1=25cos45^o=17.68km$

$y_1=-25sin45^o=-17.68km$

Second day:

She starts off at the stopping point of last day. This time, both the y- and x-components are positive.

$x_2=40cos60^o=20km$

$y_2=40sin60^o=34.64km$

Therefore, total displacements:

$x=x_1+x_2=(17.68+20)km=37.68km$

$y=y_1+y_2=(-17.68+34.64)km=16.96km$

Magnitude of displacements,

$r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}=41.32km$

Direction,

$\alpha =tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})=24.23^o$

If you drop an object from a height of 1.9 m, it will hit the ground in 0.62 s. if you throw a baseball horizontally with an ini

faltersainse [42]

That's the cool thing about free fall. The amount of time it takes to fall remains the same.

In this case, a ball that is simply dropped from rest will fall at the same rate as a ball that had some umph in the horizontal direction.
