Answer:
Explanation:
Generally, length of vector means the magnitude of the vector.
So, given a vector
R = a•i + b•j + c•k
Then, it magnitude can be caused using
|R|= √(a²+b²+c²)
So, applying this to each of the vector given.
(a) 2i + 4j + 3k
The length is
L = √(2²+4²+3²)
L = √(4+16+9)
L = √29
L = 5.385 unit
(b) 5i − 2j + k
Note that k means 1k
The length is
L = √(5²+(-2)²+1²)
Note that, -×- = +
L = √(25+4+1)
L = √30
L = 5.477 unit
(c) 2i − k
Note that, since there is no component j implies that j component is 0
L = 2i + 0j - 1k
The length is
L = √(2²+0²+(-1)²)
L = √(4+0+1)
L = √5
L = 2.236 unit
(d) 5i
Same as above no is j-component and k-component
L = 5i + 0j + 0k
The length is
L = √(5²+0²+0²)
L = √(25+0+0)
L = √25
L = 5 unit
(e) 3i − 2j − k
The length is
L = √(3²+(-2)²+(-1)²)
L = √(9+4+1)
L = √14
L = 3.742 unit
(f) i + j + k
The length is
L = √(1²+1²+1²)
L = √(1+1+1)
L = √3
L = 1.7321 unit
This problems a perfect application for this acceleration formula:
Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)² .
During the speeding-up half: 1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²
During the slowing-down half: 1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²
Pick either half, and divide each side by 0.65 m/s²:
T² = (1600 m) / (0.65 m/s²)
T = square root of (1600 / 0.65) seconds
Time for the total trip between the stations is double that time.
T = 2 √(1600/0.65) = <em>99.2 seconds</em> (rounded)
Answer:
Explanation:
You have to declare which way is plus -- up or down. I will use down.
vi = - 2.85 The balloon is going up. That is the minus direction.
a = 9.81
d = 2.50 meters distance in this case is from the object to the ground.
d = vi*t + 1/2 a t^2
-2.50 = -2.85*t + 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2
-2.50 = -2.85*t + 4.905 * t^2 transfer the left to the right.
-4.905 t^2 + 2.85*t + 2.50 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve for t.
It turns out that t = 1.06
