We are given with the data that the angle of velocity is above the negative axis. hence, the angle lies in the second quadrant with negative x axis and positive y axis. In this case, the x component is -12 cos 60 equal to -6 m/s while the y-component is 12 sin 60 equal to 6 sqrt of 3 m/s.
Explanation:
This is because the drag force suffered by the aircraft is proportional to the speed at which it travels. The thrust of the engines prints a speed to the plane and this speed prints a drag force, always reaching an equilibrium point of these two forces where the speed of the plane is constant and the acceleration is equal to zero.
Therefore, by reducing the thrust, the drag force is greater and the plane begins to decrease its speed, until it reaches the point where the new drag force is matched with the new thrust force, giving it a new final speed , without acceleration.
The answer is C. I hope this helps you.
same, stapler, gravity, motion, acceleration
We know the answer doesn't have to do with force because we have not identified a positive or negative axis.
Depending on what the system we are evaluating is, the sign of the work can change.
If work is done on the system, it is negative, but if work is done by the system, it is positive.
If the system we are evaluating is the leash, the work is being done by the leash, and therefore, the work is positive.
If the system we are evaluating is the dog, the work is being done on the dog, and therefore, the work is negative.
