What is the maximum possible resultant of two vectors with magnitudes of 2 and 4 units? what is the minimum possible resultant?

Alexeev081 [22]3 years ago

When two vectors are in same direction then we add up to get their resultant and in this case resultant would be maximum

R = A + B

R = 4 + 2

R = 6

If vectors are in opposite direction then they provide minimum resultant and in this case we subtract them

R = A - B

R = 4 - 2

R = 2

Carlos is making phosphorous trichloride using the equation below. He adds 15 g of phosphorus.
Degger [83]
Given:

The balanced chemical reaction of the synthesis of phosphorus trichloride:

2P + 3Cl2 ===> 2PCl3

Initial amount of phosphorus = 15 grams

The amount of product produced from 15 grams of phosphorus:

15 grams / 31 g/mol * (2/2) = 66.46 grams PCl3 

The amount of chlorine is 44.31 grams, nearest to 45 grams.

the distance between two successive troughs of wave is 0.4m. If the frequency of the source is 825Hz, calculate the speed of the
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

speed=330m/s

Explanation:

the speed of wave is given as

speed(meter per second) =frequency(hertz) * wavelength(meters)

so using the above formula we substitute the figures given in the question in the formula we get

speed = 0.4*825

speed =330m/s

note m/s is the si unit for speed which is read as meter per second

therefore speed =330m/s

To get an idea of how much thermal energy is contained in the world's oceans, estimate the heat liberated when a cube of ocean w
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Q = 4.52 10¹⁷ J

Explanation:

Thermal energy can be calculated with  

      Q = m c_{e} ΔT

in this case it indicates that we approximate seawater to pure water with  

    c_{e} = 4186 J/ kg K  

with the density

    ρ = m / V  

    m = ρ V  

    V = L³  

we substitute  

   m = ρ L³  

   Q = ρ L3 c_{e} ΔT

calculate  

   Q = 1000 (3 103) 3 4186 4  

   Q = 4.52 10¹⁷ J

Earth is slightly closer to the Sun in January than in July. How does the area swept out by Earth's orbit around the Sun during
suter [353]

Answer: Option <em>a.</em>

Explanation:

Kepler's 2nd law of planetary motion states:

<em>A line segment joining a planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time.</em>

It tells us that it doesn't matter how far Earth is from the Sun, at equal times, the area swept out by Earth's orbit it's always the same independently from the position in the orbit.

An airplane has an effective wing surface area of 17.0 m2 that is generating the lift force. In level flight the air speed over
olga_2 [115]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the equations given from Bernoulli's principle, which describes the behavior of a liquid moving along a streamline. Mathematically this expression can be given as,

P_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho*v_1^2 + P_2 + \frac{1}{2}*\rho*v_2^2=0

Where,

P_i = Pressure at each state

\rho= Density

v_i = Velocity

Re-organizing the expression we can get that

P_1 - P_2 = \frac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2 - v_1^2)

Our values are given as

v_1 = 40m/s

v_2 = 55m/s

\rho_{water} = 1.2kg/m^3 \rightarrow Normal Conditions

Replacing we have,

P_1 -P_2 = \frac{1}{2}*1.2*(55^2-40^2)

P_1 - P_2 = 855Pa

If we consider that there is a balance between the two states, the Force provided by gravity is equivalent to the Support Force, therefore

F_l = F_g

Here the lift force is the product between the pressure difference previously found by the effective area of the aircraft, while the Force of gravity represents the weight. There,

F_g = W

F_l = (P_2-P_1)A

Equating,

(P_1 - P_2)*A = W

W = 855*17

W = 14535 N

Therefore the weight of the plane is 14535N
