Answer:
- 1.07 ft
Explanation:
V1 = (-5, 7, 2)
V2 = (3, 1, 2)
Projection of v1 along v2, we use the following formula
=\frac{\overrightarrow{V1}.\overrightarrow{V2}}{V2}
So, the dot product of V1 and V2 is = - 5 (3) + 7 (1) + 2 (2) = -15 + 7 + 4 = -4
The magnitude of vector V2 is given by
=
So, the projection of V1 along V2 = - 4 / 3.74 = - 1.07 ft
Thus, the projection of V1 along V2 is - 1.07 ft.
so we need to find the direction of v2
Answer:
The effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.
Explanation:
First, we can use kinematics to obtain the initial velocity of the performer. Since we know the angle at which he was launched, the horizontal distance and the time in which it's traveled, we can calculate the speed by:
(This is correct because the horizontal motion has acceleration zero). Then:
Now, we can use energy to obtain the spring constant of the firing mechanism. By the conservation of mechanical energy, considering the instant in which the elastic band is at its maximum stretch as t=0, and the instant in which the performer flies free of the bands as final time, we have:
Then, plugging in the given values, we obtain:
Finally, the effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.
