Speed is distance in a specific time period. When someone ask use the unit "m/s" this period of time is one second. If the skier was able to move 560 m in 25 seconds, in one second how much distance he moves? That is the question.
You can solve this problem like
560m/25s = 22,4 m/s
Good luck!

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

70.6 mph

Explanation:

Car A mass= 1515 lb

Car B mass=1125 lb  

Speed of car B is 46 miles/h

Distance before locking, d=19.5 ft

Coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.75

Initial momentum of car B=mv where m is mass and v is velocity in ft/s  

46 mph*1.46667=67.4666668 ft/s

Momentum_B=1125*67.4666668 ft/s

Initial momentum of car A is given by

Momentum_A=1515v_a where v_a is velocity of A

Taking East as positive and west as negative then the sum of initial momentum is

1515v_a-(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)

The common velocity is represented as v_c hence after collision, the final momentum is

Momentum_final=(m_a+m_b)v_c=(1515+1125)v_c=2640v_c

From the law of conservation of linear momentum, sum of initial and final momentum equals each other hence

1515v_a-(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)= 2640v_c

The acceleration of two cars a=-\mug=-0.75*32.17=-24.1275 ft/s^{2}

From kinematic equation

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as hence

v^{2}-u^{2}=2as

0^{2}-(v_c)^{2}=2*-24.1275*19.5

v_c=\sqrt{2*24.1275*19.5}=30.67 ft/s

Substituting the value of v_c in equation 1515v_a-(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)= 2640v_c

1515v_a-(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)= 2640*30.67

1515v_a=(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)+2640*30.67

v_a=\frac {156868.8}{1515}=103.5438 ft/s

\frac {103.5438}{1.46667}=70.59787 mph\approx 70.60 mph

If the x-component of a force vector is 5.17 newtons and its y-component is 8.80 newtons, then what is its magnitude?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

10.21 N

Explanation:

As the force is a vector, it can be decomposed in two components perpendicular each other, so there is no projection of one component in the direction of the other.

When divided in this way, the magnitude of the resultant vector can be found simply applying trigonometry, as follows:

F² = Fx² + Fy² ⇒ F = √(Fx)²+(Fy)²

Replacing by Fx= 5.17 N and Fy = 8.8 N, we get:

F = √(5.17)²+(8.8)² =10.21 N
