Answer:

a) V = 465.9 m/s

b) θ = 70.529°

Explanation:

Let's first calculate angular velocity of earth:

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{23.9h}*1h/3600s

Velocity of a person on Ecuador will be:

V_E = \omega*R

V_E = 465.9 m/s

For part b, since angular velocity is the same:

\frac{\omega*R}{3}=\omega*(R*cos\theta )

Solving for θ:

\theta=acos(1/3)

\theta=70.529\°

The forces in (Figure 1) are acting on a 1.0 kg object.What is ax , the x -component of the object's acceleration
a_sh-v [17]

The x -component of the object's acceleration is 2 m/s².

<h3>What's the resultant force along x- direction?</h3>
  • Forces along x axis direction are as follows
  1. 4N along +x axis, so it's taken as +4 N
  2. 2N along -x axis , so it's taken as -2N.
  • Resultant force along x direction = 4N - 2N = 2 N which is along + ve x direction.

<h3>What's the acceleration along x axis direction?</h3>
  • As per Newton's second law, Force = mass × acceleration of the object
  • Force along x axis= mass × acceleration along x axis= 2N
  • Acceleration = 2/ mass = 2/1 = 2 m/s²

Thus, we can conclude that the acceleration along x axis is 2 m/s².

A force F of magnitude 2x^3 is applied to stop a particle moving with an initial velocity of v0. The particle travels from x=0 t
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

F=2x³

Work is given as

The range of x is from x=0 to x=D

W=-∫f(x)dx

Then,

W=-∫2x³dx from x=0 to x=D

W=- 2x⁴/4 from x=0 to x=D

W=-2(D⁴/4-0/4)

W=-D⁴/2

W=1/2D⁴

The correct answer is F
