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

1 answer:

5 0

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

A satellite is launched to orbit the Earth at an altitude of 3.25 107 m for use in the Global Positioning System (GPS). Take the

Korolek [52]

Answer:Orbital period =21.22hrs

Explanation:

given that

mass of earth M = 5.97 x 10^24 kg

radius of a satellite's orbit, R= earth's radius + height of the satellite

6.38X 10^6 + 3.25 X10^7 m =3.89 X 10^7m

Speed of satellite, v= $\sqrt GM/R$

where G = 6.673 x 10-11 N m2/kg2

V= \sqrt (6.673x10^-11 x 5.97x10^ 24)/(3.89 X 10^ 7m)

V =10,241082.2

v= 3,200.2m/s

a) Orbital period

$\sqrt GM/R$ = $\frac{2\pi r}{T}$

V= $\frac{2\pi r}{T}$

T= 2 $\pi$ r/ V

= 2 X 3.142 X 3.89 X 10^7m/ 3,200.2m/s

=76,385.1 s

60 sec= 1min

60mins = 1hr

76,385.1s =hr

76,385.1/3600=21.22hrs

26.10 N is the vertical component of the force.

Rx represents the Horizontal component of force

Ry represents The Vertical component of force

According to the given diagram

Rx - Tcosθ = 0

Rx = Tcosθ

And,

Ry + Tsinθ = mg

Ry = mg - Tsinθ

The horizontal component of force =The Vertical component of force

Rx = Ry

Tcosθ = mg - Tsinθ

T(cosθ + sinθ) = 29 × 9.8 = 284.2 N

T√2 cosθ = 284.2 N

T × √2 ×0.544 = 284.2 N

T × 0.769 = 284.2 N

T = 370 N (app)

So,

Ry = 284.2 - 370 (sin 57°)

= 284.2 - 310.3 = -26.10 N

Hence, 26.10 N is the vertical component of the force exerted.

A low orbit satellite at 100 km altitude had a camera that resolved a car location to within 0.3 meter. Find the minimum diamete

NeX [460]

Answer:

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm

Explanation:

y = Resolve distance = 0.3 m

h = Height of satellite = 100 km

λ = Wavelength = 550 nm

Angular resolution

$tan\theta\approx \theta =\frac{y}{h}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\frac{0.3}{100\times 10^3}=3\times 10^{-6}$

From Rayleigh criteria

$sin\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{550\times 10^{-9}}{sin3\times 10^{-6}}=0.2236\ m=22.4\ cm$

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

Relation between resolvable feature, focal length and angular resolution

$d=f\Delta \theta\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{d}{\Delta \theta}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{9\times 10^{-6}}{3\times 10^{-6}}=3\ m=300\ cm$

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm
