The position vector can be transcribed as:

A<span> = 6 i + y j                           </span>

i <span>points in the x-direction and j points in the y-direction.</span>

The magnitude of the vector is its dot product with itself:

<span>|A|2 = A·A</span>

<span>102  = (6 i + y j)•(6 i+ y j)            Note that i•j = 0, and  i•i  = j•j = 1 </span>

<span>100  = 36 + y2       </span>

<span>64    = y2</span>

<span>get the square root of 64 = 8</span>

<span>The vertical component of the vector is 8 cm.</span>

You move a 25 N object 5 meters. If it takes 8 s how much power did you do?
klasskru [66]

Answer:

15.625 watts

Explanation:

Recall that power is defined as the worked performed per unit of time:

Power = Work / time

The work done is Force * distance, so in our case the work is:

Work = 25 M * 5 m = 125 J

Then the power will be:

Power = 125 J / 8 sec = 15.625 watts

A jogger hears a car alarm and decides to investigate. While running toward the car, she hears an alarm frequency of 872.10 Hz.
Nata [24]

Answer:

v = 4.18 m/s

Explanation:

given,

frequency of the alarm = 872.10 Hz

after passing car frequency she hear = 851.10 Hz

Speed of sound = 343 m/s

speed of the jogger = ?

speed of the

v_f = \dfrac{872.10-851.10}{2}

v_f =10.5\ Hz

v_o = 872.1 - 10.5

V_0 = 861.6\ Hz

The speed of jogger

v = \dfrac{v_1 \times 343}{v_0}-343

v = \dfrac{872.1 \times 343}{861.6}-343

v = 4.18 m/s

A spacecraft is moving past the earth at a constant speed of 0.60 times the speed of light. The astronaut measures the time inte
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

the time interval that an earth observer measures is 4 seconds

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

speed of the spacecraft as it moves past the is 0.6 times the speed of light

we know that speed of light c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

so speed of spacecraft v = 0.6 × c = 0.6c

time interval between ticks of the spacecraft clock Δt₀ = 3.2 seconds

Now, from time dilation;

t = Δt₀ / √( 1 - ( v² / c² ) )

t = Δt₀ / √( 1 - ( v/c )² )

we substitute

t = 3.2 / √( 1 - ( 0.6c / c )² )

t = 3.2 / √( 1 - ( 0.6 )² )

t = 3.2 / √( 1 - 0.36 )

t = 3.2 / √0.64

t = 3.2 / 0.8

t = 4 seconds

Therefore, the time interval that an earth observer measures is 4 seconds
