Answer:

Explanation:

A = 3m

B = 4 m

let the angle between the two vectors is θ.

the resultant of two vectors is given by

R=\sqrt{A^{2}+B^{2}+2ABCos\theta }

(a) R = 7 m

So, 7=\sqrt{3^{2}+4^{2}+2\times 3\times 4 Cos\theta }

49 = 9 + 16 + 24 Cosθ

Cosθ = 1

θ = 0°

Thus, the two vectors are inclined at 0°.

(b) R = 1 m

So, 1=\sqrt{3^{2}+4^{2}+2\times 3\times 4 Cos\theta }

1 = 9 + 16 + 24 Cosθ

Cosθ = - 1

θ = 180°

Thus, the two vectors are inclined at 180°.

(c) R = 5 m

So, 5=\sqrt{3^{2}+4^{2}+2\times 3\times 4 Cos\theta }

25 = 9 + 16 + 24 Cosθ

Cosθ = 0

θ = 90°

Thus, the two vectors are inclined at 90°.

An electron and a proton, starting from rest, are accelerated through an electric potential difference of the same magnitude. in
Yakvenalex [24]
The charges are the same in absolute value, so the change of potential energy is the same. That means that the change in kinetic energy is also the same. Then:

1 = Ke/Kp = m_e *v_e^2 / m_p * v_p^2, or

v_e/v_p = sqrt( m_p/m_e),

So the speed of the electron will be sqrt( m_p/m_e) times greater than the speed of the proton

The New England Merchants Bank Building in Boston is 152 mm high. On windy days it sways with a frequency of 0.20 HzHz , and the
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The total distance, side to side, that the top of the building moves during such an oscillation = 31 cm

Explanation:

Let the total side to side motion be 2A. Where A is maximum acceleration.

Now, we know know that equation for maximum acceleration is;

A = α(max) / [(2πf)^(2)]

So 2A = 2[α(max) / [(2πf)^(2)] ]

α(max) = (0.025 x 9.81) while frequency(f) from the question is 0.2Hz.

Therefore 2A = 2 [(0.025 x 9.81) / [((2π(0.2)) ^(2)] ] = 2( 0.245 / 1.58) = 0.31m or 31cm
