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

A falling object accelerates from -10.0 m/s to -30.0 m/s. how much time does it take?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

2.04 s

Explanation:

v = at + v₀

(-30.0 m/s) = (-9.8 m/s²) t + (-10.0 m/s)

t = 2.04 s

What are non-metals?<br>explain briefly​
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

In chemistry, a nonmetal is a chemical element that is mechanically weak in its most stable form, brittle if solid, and usually gains or shares electrons in chemical reactions. There is no universal agreement on which elements are nonmetals; the numbers generally range from fourteen to twenty-three, depending on the criterion or criteria of interest.

A force in the negative direction of an x-axis is applied for 17ms to a 0.18 kg ball initially moving at 16.0 m/s in the positiv
Marizza181 [45]
Impulse = Ft=mΔv => Δv = Ft/m = 4.28/0.18 = 23.78 m/s

But,
Δv = v1-v2, where v1 = initial velocity = 16 m/s, v2 = final velocity

Therefore,
v1 - v2 = 23.78 => v2 = v1 - 23.78 => v2 = 16 - 23.78 = -7.78 m/s

The velocity of ball after the force is 7.78 m/s in the direction of the force.
