Suppose I have a vector that is 7 units long and that makes an angle of +30 degrees from the positive x-axis. I want to add to t

his a vector that is also 7 units long and that makes an angle of 120 degrees from the positive x-axis. What is the correct (x,y) representation of the sum of these two vectors?

Answer:

sum of these two vectors is 6.06i+3.5j-3.5i+6.06j = 2.56i+9.56j

Explanation:

We have given first vector which has length of 7 units and makes an angle of 30° with positive x-axis

So x component of the vector =7cos30^{\circ}=7\times 0.866=6.06

y component of the vector =7sin30^{\circ}=7\times 0.5=3.5

So vector will be 6.06i+3.5j

Now other vector of length of 7 units and makes an angle of 120° with positive x-axis

So x component of vector  =7cos120^{\circ}=7\times -0.5=-3.5i

y component of the vector =7sin120^{\circ}=7\times 0.866=6.06j

Now sum of these two vectors is 6.06i+3.5j-3.5i+6.06j = 2.56i+9.56j

a team of dogs is pulling a sled with a net force of 2000 N. The sled is accelerating a 2.2 m/s^2. What is the mass of the sled?
sweet-ann [11.9K]
Force, F = ma

Where m = mass in kg, a = acceleration in m/s²,  Force, F is in N.

F = ma

2000 = m*2.2

2.2m = 2000

m = 2000/2.2

m ≈ 909.09

Mass is ≈ 909.09 kg.

Assume that block A which has a mass of 30 kg is being pushed to the left with a force of 75 N along a frictionless surface. Wha
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The force of friction acting on block B is approximately 26.7N.  Note: this result does not match any value from your multiple choice list. Please see comment at the end of this answer.  

Explanation:

The acting force F=75N pushes block A into acceleration to the left. Through a kinetic friction force, block B also accelerates to the left, however, the maximum of the friction force (which is unknown) makes block B accelerate by 0.5 m/s^2 slower than the block A, hence appearing it to accelerate with 0.5 m/s^2 to the right relative to the block A.

To solve this problem, start with setting up the net force equations for both block A and B:

F_{Anet} = m_A\cdot a_A = F - F_{fr}\\F_{Bnet} = m_B\cdot a_B = F_{fr}

where forces acting to the left are positive and those acting to the right are negative. The friction force F_fr in the first equation  is due to A acting on B and in the second equation due to B acting on A. They are opposite in direction but have the same magnitude (Newton's third law). We also know that B accelerates 0.5 slower than A:

a_B = a_A-0.5 \frac{m}{s^2}

Now we can solve the system of 3 equations for a_A, a_B and finally for F_fr:

30kg\cdot a_A = 75N - F_{fr}\\24kg\cdot a_B = F_{fr}\\a_B= a_A-0.5 \frac{m}{s^2}\\\implies \\a_A=\frac{87}{54}\frac{m}{s^2},\,\,\,a_B=\frac{10}{9}\frac{m}{s^2}\\F_{fr} = 24kg \cdot \frac{10}{9}\frac{m}{s^2}=\frac{80}{3}kg\frac{m}{s^2}\approx 26.7N

The force of friction acting on block B is approximately 26.7N.

This answer has been verified by multiple people and is correct for the provided values in your question. I recommend double-checking the text of your question for any typos and letting us know in the comments section.

A dog running to the right at 4 m/s sees a ball and accelerates steadily to catch it. The dog accelerates to the right at a rate
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

D.-4.798m/s

Explanation:

Greetings !

Given values

u= 4ms \\ a = 0.21ms {}^{2}  \\ t = 3.8sec

Solve for V of the given expression

Firstly, recall the velocity-time equation

v = u + at

plug in known values to the equation

v = (4) + (0.21)(3.8)

solve for final velocity

v = 4.792ms

Hope it helps!

A spherical, conducting shell of inner radius r1= 10 cm and outer radius r2 = 15 cm carries a total charge Q = 15 μC . What is t
lutik1710 [3]

a) E = 0

b) 3.38\cdot 10^6 N/C

Explanation:

a)

We can solve this problem using Gauss theorem: the electric flux through a Gaussian surface of radius r must be equal to the charge contained by the sphere divided by the vacuum permittivity:

\int EdS=\frac{q}{\epsilon_0}

where

E is the electric field

q is the charge contained by the Gaussian surface

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

Here we want to find the electric field at a distance of

r = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Here we are between the inner radius and the outer radius of the shell:

r_1 = 10 cm\\r_2 = 15 cm

However, we notice that the shell is conducting: this means that the charge inside the conductor will distribute over its outer surface.

This means that a Gaussian surface of radius r = 12 cm, which is smaller than the outer radius of the shell, will contain zero net charge:

q = 0

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field is also zero:

E = 0

b)

Here we want to find the magnitude of the electric field at a distance of

r = 20 cm = 0.20 m

from the centre of the shell.

Outside the outer surface of the shell, the electric field is equivalent to that produced by a single-point charge of same magnitude Q concentrated at the centre of the shell.

Therefore, it is given by:

E=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 r^2}

where in this problem:

Q=15 \mu C = 15\cdot 10^{-6} C is the charge on the shell

r=20 cm = 0.20 m is the distance from the centre of the shell

Substituting, we find:

E=\frac{15\cdot 10^{-6}}{4\pi (8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.20)^2}=3.38\cdot 10^6 N/C
