Find the magnitude of the sum of two vectors; A is 5 km , and B is 7 , when the angle btween them is 120

Dimas [21]

Answer: 6.24 km

Explanation:

Given

The magnitude of the first vector(say) $\left | a\right |=5\ km$

the magnitude of the second vector(say) $\left | b\right |=7\ km$

the angle between them is $120^{\circ}$

The resultant vector magnitude is given by

$\left | \vec{R}\right |=\sqrt{a^2+b^2+2ab\cos \theta}$

$\left | \vec{R}\right |=\sqrt{5^2+7^2+2\times 5\times 7\cdot \cos 120^{\circ}}\\\left | \vec{R}\right |=\sqrt{74-35}=\sqrt{39}\\\left | \vec{R}\right |=6.24\ km$

A spaceship moves radially away from Earth with acceleration 29.4 m/s 2 (about 3g). How much time does it take for sodium street

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

doppler shift's formula for source and receiver moving away from each other:

<em>λ'=λ°√(1+β/1-β)</em>

Explanation:

acceleration of spaceship=α=29.4m/s²

wavelength of sodium lamp=λ°=589nm

as the spaceship is moving away from earth so wavelength of earth should increase w.r.t increasing speed until it vanishes at λ'=700nm

using doppler shift's formula:

<em>λ'=λ°√(1+β/1-β)</em>

putting the values:

700nm=589nm√(1+β/1-β)

after simplifying:

<em>β=0.17</em>

by this we can say that speed at that time is: v=0.17c

to calculate velocity at an acceleration of a=29.4m/s²

we suppose that spaceship started from rest so,

<em>v=v₀+at</em>

where v₀=0

so<em> v=at</em>

as we want to calculate t so:-

<em>t=v/a</em> v=0.17c ,c=3x10⁸ ,a=29.4m/s²

putting values:

=0.17(3x10⁸m/s)/29.4m/s²

<em>t=1.73x10⁶</em>

Two cars collide at an intersection. One car has a mass of 1600 kg and is

pickupchik [31]

The combined momentum is 4000 kg m/s south

Explanation:

The total combined momentum of the two cars is given by the vector addition of the momenta of the two cars.

For this problem, we choose north as positive direction and south as negative direction.

The momentum of the first car travelling north is given by:

$p_1 = m_1 v_1$

where

$m_1 = 1600 kg$ is the mass of the car

$v_1 = +8 m/s$ is its velocity

Substituting,

$p_1 = (1600)(8)=+12800 kg m/s$

The momentum of the second car travelling south is given by:

$p_2 = m_2 v_2$

where

$m_2 = 1400 kg$ is the mass of the car

$v_2= -12 m/s$ is its velocity (negative because the car travels south)

Substituting,

$p_2 = (1400)(-12)=-16800 kg m/s$

And therefore, the combined momentum is

$p=p_1 + p_2 = +12800 + (-16800)=-4000 kg m/s$

where the negative sign means the direction of the total momentum is south.
