Answer:
-75.35°
Explanation:
Let C be the sum of the two vectors A and B. Hence, we can write the following
but since the vector C is in the -y direction, = 0 and
= —12 m.
Thus
similarly, we can determine by rearranging equation (1)
so the magnitude of B is
Finally, the direction of B can be calculated as follows
Ф=
hence the vector B makes an angle of 75.35 clockwise with + x axis
Answer:
0.266 m
Explanation:
Assuming the lump of patty is 3 Kg then applying the principal of conservation of linear momentum,
P= mv where p is momentum, m is mass and v is the speed of an object. In this case
where sunscripts p and b represent putty and block respectively, c is common velocity.
Substituting the given values then
3*8=v(15+3)
V=24/18=1.33 m/s
The resultant kinetic energy is transferred to spring hence we apply the law of conservation of energy
where k is spring constant and x is the compression of spring. Substituting the given values then
