Answer:
Resultant displacement = 1222.3 m
Angle is 88.3 degree from +X axis.
Explanation:
A = 550 m north
B = 500 m north east
C = 450 m north west
Write in the vector form
A = 550 j
B = 500 (cos 45 i + sin 45 j ) = 353.6 i + 353.6 j
C = 450 ( - cos 45 i + sin 45 j ) = - 318.2 i + 318.2 j
Net displacement is given by
R = (353.6 - 318.2) i + (550 + 353.6 + 318.2) j
R = 35.4 i + 1221.8 j
The magnitude is
The direction is given by
Answer:
g = 1.25m/s²
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 5kg
Height = 6m
Gravitational potential energy = 24J
To find the acceleration due to gravity;
Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.
Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;
Where,
P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.
m represents the mass of an object.
g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.
h represents the height measured in meters.
GPE = mgh
Substituting into the equation, we have;
24 = 5*6*g
24 = 30g
g = 30/24
g = 1.25m/s²
Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity on Planet X is 1.25m/s².
