The site from which an airplane takes off is the origin. The X axis points east, the y axis points straight up. The position and

velocity vectors of the plane at a later time are given by r=(1.21x103i+3.45x104;)m and v= (2 i-3.5j) m/s The magnitude, in meters, of the plane's displacement from the origin is:_________
a. 2.50 x104
b. 1.45 x 104
c. 3.45x104
d. 2.5x103
e. none of the above

Answer:

d = 3.5*10^4 m

Explanation:

In order to calculate the displacement of the airplane you need only the information about the initial position and final position of the airplane. THe initial position is at the origin (0,0,0) and the final position is given by the following vector:

\vec{r}=(1.21*10^3\hat{i}+3.45*10^4\hat{j})m

The displacement of the airplane is obtained by using the general form of the Pythagoras theorem:

d=\sqrt{(x-x_o)^2+(y-y_o)^2}   (1)

where x any are the coordinates of the final position of the airplane and xo and yo the coordinates of the initial position. You replace the values of all variables in the equation (1):

d=\sqrt{(1.12*10^3-0)^2+(3.45*10^4-0)^2}=3.45*10^4m

hence, the displacement of the airplane is 3.45*10^4 m

What force does the water exert (in addition to that due to atmospheric pressure) on a submarine window of radius 44.0 cm at a d
Butoxors [25]
Calculate the pressure due to sea water as density*depth.
That is, 
pressure = (1025 kg/m^3)*((9400 m)*(9.8 m/s^2) = 94423000 Pa = 94423 kPa

Atmospheric pressure is  101.3 kPa
Total pressure is  94423 + 101.3 = 94524 kPa (approx)

The area of the window is π(0.44 m)^2 = 0.6082 m^2

The force on the window is
(94524 kPa)*(0.6082 m^2) = 57489.7 kN = 57.5 MN approx
