Find out the x-component and y-component of the following vectors:
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

A = 15.0 cm; the vector is 30.00 north of west; = 15 cm N30W

Y - component = 7.5cm and X - component = -12.99 cm

B = 12.0 m; the vector is 55.00 north of east; = 12.0 m N55E

Y - component = 9.83 m and X - component = 6.88 m

C = 28.0 m/s; the vector is 40.00 south of west; = 28.0 m/s S40W

Y - component =  - 17.998 m/s and X - component = - 21.448 m/s

D = 55.5 m/s2; the vector is 35.00 south of east; = 55.5 m/s² S35E

Y - component = - 31.835 m/s² and X - component  = 45.466 m/s²

Explanation:

1. A = 15.0 cm; the vector is 30.00 north of west; = 15 cm N30W

Y - component = 15cm × sin30 = 7.5cm

X - component = -15cm × cos30 = -12.99 cm

2. B = 12.0 m; the vector is 55.00 north of east; = 12.0 m N55E

Y - component = 12.0 m × sin55 = 9.83 m

X - component =12.0 m × cos55 = 6.88 m

3. C = 28.0 m/s; the vector is 40.00 south of west; = 28.0 m/s S40W

Y - component = - 28.0 m/s × sin40 = - 17.998 m/s

X - component =  - 28.0 m/s × cos40 = - 21.448 m/s

4. D = 55.5 m/s2; the vector is 35.00 south of east; = 55.5 m/s² S35E

Y - component = - 55.5 m/s² × sin35 = - 31.835 m/s²

X - component = 55.5 m/s² × cos35 = 45.466 m/s²

5) A 20.0 kg cart with no friction wheels sits on a table. A light string is attached to it and runs over a low friction pulley
ella [17]

Answer:

1) Please find attached, created with Microsoft Visio

2) The acceleration of the masses connected by the light string is 0.00735 m/s²

3) The tension in the cord is 0.147 N

4) The time it would take the block to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table is approximately 18.07 s

5) The velocity of the cart as soon as it gets to the edge of the table is 0.042 m/s

Explanation:

1) Please find attached, the required free body diagram, showing the tension, weight and frictional (zero friction) forces acting on the cart and the mass created with Microsoft Visio

2) The acceleration of the masses connected by the light string is given as follows;

F = Mass, m × Acceleration, a

The mass of the truck, M = 20.0 kg

The mass attached to the string, hanging rom the pulley, m = 0.0150 kg

The force, F acting on the system = The pulling force on the cart = The tension on the cable = The weight of the hanging mass = 0.0150 × 9.8 = 0.147 N

The pulling force acting on the cart, F = M × a

∴ F = 0.147 N = 20.0 kg × a

a = 0.147 N/(20.0 kg) = 0.00735 m/s²

The acceleration of the truck = a = 0.00735 m/s²

3) The tension in the cord = F = 0.147 N

4) The time, t, it would take the block to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table is given by the kinematic equation, s = u·t + 1/2·a·t²

Where;

s = The distance to the edge of the table = 1.2 m

u = The initial velocity = 0 m/s (The cart is assumed to be initially at rest)

a = The acceleration of the cart = 0.00735 m/s²

t = The time taken

Substituting the known values, gives;

s = u·t + 1/2·a·t²

1.2 = 0 × t + 1/2 ×0.00735 × t²

1.2 = 1/2 ×0.00735 × t²

t² = 1.2/(1/2 ×0.00735) ≈ 326.5306

t = √(1.2/(1/2 ×0.00735)) ≈ 18.07

The time it would take the block to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table = t ≈ 18.07 s

5) The velocity, v, of the cart as soon as it gets to the edge of the table is given by the kinematic equation, v² = u² + 2·a·s as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

u = 0 m/s

v² = 0² + 2 × 0.00735 × 1.2 = 0.001764

v = √(0.001764) = 0.042

The velocity of the cart as soon as it gets to the edge of the table = v = 0.042 m/s.

A 2.0 kg mass weighs 10 Newtons on planet X. what is the acceleration due to gravity on planet X? Show the work.
KengaRu [80]

Answer: The gravitational acceleration on planet X is 5 N/kg

On Earth (with the gravitational accelartion g_E) the mass of 2kg will correspond to

F_E = m\cdot g_E = 2.0 \mbox{kg}\cdot 9.8 \frac{N}{kg} = 19.6 N

On planet X we are told the same measure is only 10N. Since there is a proportional relationship between g and F, we can calculate g_X:

\frac{F_E}{g_E}=\frac{F_X}{g_X} \implies\\g_x = \frac{g_E\cdot F_X}{F_E}=\frac{9.8 N/kg \cdot 10 N }{19.6N}=5 \frac{N}{kg}

A cable is 100-m long and has a cross-sectional area of 1.0 mm2. A 1000-N force is applied to stretch the cable. Young's modulus
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

1 m

Explanation:

L = 100 m

A = 1 mm^2 = 1 x 10^-6 m^2

Y = 1 x 10^11 N/m^2

F = 1000 N

Let the cable stretch be ΔL.

By the formula of Young's modulus

Y=\frac{F\times L}{A\times\Delta L}

\Delta L=\frac{F\times L}{A\times\Y}

\Delta L=\frac{1000\times 100}{10^{-6}\times10^{11}}

ΔL = 1 m

Thus, the cable stretches by 1 m.
