Answer:
a = 4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
a² + 3² = 5²
a² + 9 = 25 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
a² = 16 ( take the square root of both sides )
a =
= 4
Answer:
i. The horizontal component of the ball = 15.8
ii. The vertical component of the ball = 11.2
Step-by-step explanation:
A thrown ball is an example of a projectile, whose motion can be explained with respect to both horizontal and vertical components.
Horizontal component of the ball = U Cos θ
Vertical component of the ball = U Sin θ
where U is the initial velocity of the ball, and θ is the angle of projection.
Thus for the given question,
U = 70 km/hr (19.44 m/s)
θ = 35°
So that;
i. The horizontal component of the ball = 19.44 Cos 35°
= 19.44 x 0.8192
= 15.785
The horizontal component of the ball = 15.8.
ii. The vertical component of the ball = 19.44 Sin 35°
= 19.44 x 0.5736
= 11.151
The vertical component of the ball = 11.2
Answer:
I) |xz| ≈ 28.6 km
II) |yz| ≈ 34.8 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that the position of ship due south of x is z (aà pictor representation of the question is attached)
|xy| = 20 km, |xz| = ?, |yz| = ?, θ(y) = 55°
Using Trigonometric ratio - SOHCAHTOA
I) Tan θ = |xz| ÷ |xy| ⇒ Tan 55° = |xz| ÷ 20
|xz| = 20 * Tan 55 = 20 * 1.428
|xz| = 28.56 km
|xz| ≈ <u>28.6 km</u>
<u />
II) Cos θ = |xy| ÷ |yz| ⇒ Cos 55° = 20 ÷ |yz|
|yz| * Cos 55° = 20 ⇒ |yz| = 20 ÷ Cos 55°
|yz| = 20 ÷ 0.574 = 34.84 km
|yz| ≈ <u>34.8 km</u>
