X-component of length 5 and a y-component of length 4. What is the angle of the vector?

1 answer:

4 0

The direction of the vector with respect to the x-axis
is the angle whose tangent is (4/5) .

Arctan(4/5) = 38.7° counterclockwise from the x-axis.

A boy of mass 40kg eats bananas contains of 980 joule. If this energy is used to lift him up from ground,the height to which he

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

h = 2.49 [m]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use the definition of potential energy, which tells us that energy is equal to the product of mass by gravity by height.

The potential energy can be calculated by means of this equation:

Ep = m*g*h

where:

Ep = potential energy = 980 [J]

m = mass = 40 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s^2]

h = elevation [m]

Now replacing:

980 = 40*9.81*h

h = 2.49 [m]

The uncertainty in the position of an electron along an x axis is given as 5 x 10-12 m. What is the least uncertainty in any sim

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The least uncertainty in the momentum component px is 1 × 10⁻²³ kg.m.s⁻¹.

Explanation:

According to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, the uncertainty in the position of an electron (σx) and the uncertainty in its linear momentum (σpx) are complementary variables and are related through the following expression.

σx . σpx ≥ h/4π

where,

h is the Planck´s constant

If σx = 5 × 10⁻¹²m,

5 × 10⁻¹²m . σpx ≥ 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ kg.m².s⁻¹/4π

σpx ≥ 1 × 10⁻²³ kg.m.s⁻¹

A house brick has a volume of 1900 cm³ and a weight in air of 80N.What is its apparent weight in water?The density of water is 1

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

61 N

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the mass of the brick when placed in water. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of brick = 1900 cm³

Density of water = 1 g/cm³

Mass of brick in water =…?

Density = mass / volume

1 = mass of brick in water / 1900

Cross multiply

Mass of brick in water = 1 × 1900

Mass of brick in water = 1900 g

Next, we shall convert 1900 g to Kg.

1000 g = 1 Kg

Therefore,

1900 g = 1900 g × 1 Kg / 1000 g

1900 g = 1.9 Kg

Next, we shall determine the weight in water. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 1.9 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Weight (W) =?

W = m × g

W = 1.9 × 10

W = 19 N

Thus, the weight of the brick in water is 19 N.

Finally, we shall determine the apparent weight of the brick in water. This can be obtained as follow:

Weight in air = 80 N

Weight in water = 19 N

Apparent weight =?

Apparent weight = weight in air – weight in water

Apparent weight = 80 – 19

Apparent weight = 61 N

A primary advantage of composite materials is: (choose all that apply). 1.) high strength 2.) low weight 3.) ease of constructio

icang [17]

Answer:

primary advantage of composite material are high strength, low weight, corrosion resistance

Explanation:

The primary advantage of composite material is

1) high strength - they are stronger in strength than commanly used material like steel and aluminium.

2)low weight - lighter than most of the material like woods and others metals

3) corrosion resistance - it resist extreme condition of weather and can be good place where handling of chemicals takes place.
