Let's use Newton's 2nd law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Force = (68 kg) x (1.2 m/s²) = 81.6 newtons .
The widely accepted hypothesis before that turned out wrong was the Earth-Centered theory or the Geocentric Theory. This was proposed by the philosopher Ptolemy. He came about to this hypothesis from hi observation that from the Earth's perspective, the celestial bodies like the Sun, stars and the moon, look like they rotate around the Earth each day and night. However, this was disproved by Galileo Galelei by his Heliocentric Theory. He observed through the telescope that the Venus also changes phases like the moon. However, he deduced that this is not possible from the positions of the Venus, Earth, Moon and Sun.
Answer:
(a) θ = 33.86°
(b) Ay = 49.92 N
Explanation:
You have that the magnitude of a vector is A = 89.6 N
The x component of such a vector is Ax = 74.4 N
(a) To find the angle between the vector and the x axis you use the following formula for the calculation of the x component of a vector:
(1)
Ax: x component of vector A
A: magnitude of vector A
θ: angle between vector A and the x axis
You solve the equation (1) for θ, by using the inverse of cosine function:
the angle between the A vector and the x axis is 33.86°
(b) The y component of the vector is given by:
the y comonent of the vecor is Ay = 49.92 N
Answer:
10 seconds
Explanation:
x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
250 = 0 + (0) t + ½ (5) t²
250 = 2.5 t²
t² = 100
t = 10
It takes 10 seconds to land from a height of 250 ft.
