The speed and distances are directly proportional. Use ratios to solve for vertical y-distance. The ratio of x-distance west to y-distance north equals the x-velocity to y-velocity.
x/y = vx/vy
41/y = 8.6/5.2
41/y = 1.65
41/1.65 = y
24.8 m = y
Answer:
that's nice very nice super duper nicer
Please reply to this with your question I would like to help.
Sin of a right triangle is opposite divided by hypotenuse
in this case, that is 5/8.6 = 0.581395349<span>
</span>
you can easily remember the trig functions with this acronym:
SOH-CAH-TOA
S: Sine
O: Opposite
H: Hypotenuse
C: Cosine
A: Adjacent
H: Hypotenuse
T: Tangent
O: Opposite
A: Adjacent
Answer:
6.8 s
Explanation:
Let's say the west end of the field is position 0 m and the east end of the field is position 250 m.
The position of kitten A is:
x = 0 + 25 t
And the position of kitten B is:
x = 250 - 12 t
The kittens collide when they have the same position:
25 t = 250 - 12 t
37 t = 250
t ≈ 6.8 s
