Answer:
26.67 m/s
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of linear momentum, the initial sum of momentum equals the final sum.
p=mv where p is momentum, m is the mass of object and v is the speed of the object
Initial momentum
The initial momentum will be that of basketball and volleyball, Since basketball is initially at rest, its initial velocity is zero
Final momentum
Answer:
The force exerted by the ocean tide is directed to the right (east).
The force exerted by the wind is directed to the northwest (45° N of W).
We should separate the x- and y- components of the wind force, and evaluate each component separately.
We denote the direction to the right as the positive direction, so the x-component of the wind force is in the negative direction.
The resultant force is as follows:
The resultant acceleration can be found by Newton's Second Law:
The magnitude of the resultant acceleration is
