The least number of component of a vector quantity is two. These are the x-component and the y-component. 

The resultant vector, or vector as we refer to it in this item, can be calculated through the equation,
              RV = sqrt ((Vx)² + (Vy)²)

From the equation, it can be noted that if we let Vx equal to zero,
              RV = Vy

Similarly, if we let Vy be equal to zero then,
             RV = Vx

Thus, it is still possible for the vector to become nonzero even if one of its components is zero.

an Olympic runner leaps over a hurdle.if the runner initial vertical speed is 2.2m/s how much will the runners center of mass be
Snowcat [4.5K]
Supposing the runner is condensed to a point and moves upward at 2.2 m/s.
It takes a time = 2.2/g = 2.2/9.8 = 0.22 seconds to increase to max height. 
Now looking at this condition in opposite - that is the runner is at max height and drops back to earth in 0.22 s (symmetry of this kind of motion). 
From what height does any object take 0.22 s to fall to earth (supposing there is no air friction)? 
d = 1/2gt²= (0.5)(9.8)(0.22)²= 0.24 m

What must happen to an atom of magnesium in order to become a magnesium ion Mg+2?
igomit [66]

Answer:

Answer is: c. It must lose two electrons and become an ion.

Magnesium (Mg) is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons (two valence electrons).

Magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.

Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

A soccer player takes a corner kick, lofting a stationary ball 33.0° above the horizon at 15.0 m/s. If the soccer ball has a mas
Alexxandr [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the soccer ball, m = 0.425 kg

Speed of the ball, u = 15 m/s

Angle with horizontal, \theta=33^{\circ}

Time for which the player's foot is in contact with it, \Delta t = 5.1\times 10^{-2}\ s

Part A,

The x component of the soccer ball's change in momentum is given by :

\Delta p_x=mv\ cos\theta

\Delta p_x=0.425\times 15\ cos(33)

p_x=5.34\ kg-m/s

The y component of the soccer ball's change in momentum is given by :

\Delta p_y=mv\ sin\theta

\Delta p_y=0.425\times 15\ sin(33)

p_y=3.47\ kg-m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.
