A vector → A has a magnitude of 56.0 m and points in a direction 30.0° below the negative x axis. A second vector, → B , has a m
MissTica

Answer:

  • The magnitude of the vector \vec{C} is 107.76 m

Explanation:

To find the components of the vectors we can use:

\vec{A} = | \vec{A} | \ ( \ cos(\theta) \ , \ sin (\theta) \ )

where | \vec{A} | is the magnitude of the vector, and θ is the angle over the positive x axis.

The negative x axis is displaced 180 ° over the positive x axis, so, we can take:

\vec{A} = 56.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 180 \° + 30 \°) \ , \ sin (180 \° + 30 \°) \ )

\vec{A} = 56.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 210 \°) \ , \ sin (210 \°) \ )

\vec{A} = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ , \ - 28 \ m \ )

\vec{B} = 82.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 180 \° - 49 \°) \ , \ sin (180 \° - 49 \°) \ )

\vec{B} = 82.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 131 \°) \ , \ sin (131 \°) \ )

\vec{B} = ( \ -53.797 \ m \ , \ 61.886\ m \ )

Now, we can perform vector addition. Taking two vectors, the vector addition is performed:

(a_x,a_y) + (b_x,b_y) = (a_x+b_x,a_y+b_y)

So, for our vectors:

\vec{C} = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ , \ - 28 \ m \ ) + ( \ -53.797 \ m \ ,  ) = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ -53.797 \ m , \ - 28 \ m \ + \ 61.886\ m \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ - 102.294 \ m , \ 33.886 m \ )

To find the magnitude of this vector, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem

|\vec{C}| = \sqrt{C_x^2 + C_y^2}

|\vec{C}| = \sqrt{(- 102.294 \ m)^2 + (\ 33.886 m \)^2}

|\vec{C}| =107.76 m

And this is the magnitude we are looking for.

Two boats start together and race across a 48-km-wide lake and back. boat a goes across at 48 km/h and returns at 48 km/h. boat
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Time required by boat 1 for the round trip is less than that of boat 2.

Hence, boat 1 wins.

Explanation:

Case 1: Boat 1

Speed of boat = \frac{distance of river}{time}

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

While going to another end

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

time = \frac{48}{48}

time = 1 hour

While going back,

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

time = \frac{48}{48}

time = 1 hour

Total time taken by boat 1 is,

Total time by boat 1 = 1 hour + 1 hour = 2 hour

Total time by boat 1 = 2 hour

Total time taken by boat 1 for the round trip is 2 hour.

Case 2: Boat 2

Speed of boat = \frac{distance of river}{time}

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

While going to another end

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

time = \frac{48}{24}

time = 2 hour

While going back,

time = \frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}

time = \frac{48}{72}

time = 0.66 hour

Total time taken by boat 2 is,

Total time by boat 1 = 2 hour + 0.66 hour

Total time by boat 1 = 2.66 hour

Total time taken by boat 2 for the round trip is 2.66 hour.

Time required by boat 1 for the round trip is less than that of boat 2.

Hence, boat 1 wins.

A plane electromagnetic wave, with wavelength 5 m, travels in vacuum in the positive x direction with its electric vector E, of
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

E₀ = 229.1 V/m

E = E₀ / √2 = 229.1 / 1.414 = 162 V/m

B =  E / c  ( c is velocity of em waves )

=   162 / (3 x 10⁸)  = 54 x 10⁻⁸ T

rate of energy flow =  ( E x B )  / μ₀

= 162 x 54 x 10⁻⁸ / 4π x 10⁻⁷

= 69.65 W per m².

Write an email to a classmate explaining why the velocity of the current in a river has no FN C02-F20-OP11USB effect on the time
anzhelika [568]

The velocity of the current in a river has no effect on the the time it takes to paddle a canoe across the river, given that the boat is pointed perpendicular to the bank of the river, because

The velocity of the river does not change the velocity and therefore the distance traveled in the direction of the boat which is directed perpendicular to it

Reason:

Let \overset \rightarrow {v_y} represent the velocity of the boat across the river in the direction, \overset \rightarrow {d_y}, and let, \overset \rightarrow {v_x}, represent the velocity of the river, we have;

The velocity of the boat perpendicular to the direction of the river = \overset \rightarrow {v_y}

Therefore, the distance covered per unit time in the perpendicular direction

to the flow of the river is \overset \rightarrow {v_y}, such that the time it takes to cross the river in

the perpendicular direction is the same, for every value of the velocity of

the river.

This is so because the velocity in the perpendicular direction to the flow of

the river, which is the velocity of the boat is unchanged by the velocity of

the river, because there is no perpendicular component of velocity in the

velocity of the river.

\overset \rightarrow {v_y} = 3 m/s

\overset \rightarrow {v_x} = 4 m/s

The width of the river, w_y = 6 meters, we have;

  • The resultant velocity = \sqrt{(3 \ m/s)^2 + (4 \ m/s)^2} =5 \ m/s

The direction, θ, is given as follows;

\theta = \arctan \left(\dfrac{4}{3} \right) \approx 53.13^{\circ}

The length of the path of the boat, <em>l</em>, is given as follows;

l = \dfrac{6}{cos \left(\arctan \left(\dfrac{4}{3} \right)\right)} = 10

The length of the path the boat takes = 10 m

The time it takes to cross the river, t = \dfrac{l}{v}, therefore;

  • t = \dfrac{10}{5} = 2
  • The time it takes to cross the river, t = 2 seconds

Considering only the y-components, we have;

t = \dfrac{w_y}{v_y}

Therefore;

t = \dfrac{6 \ m}{3 \ m/s} = 2 \, s

Which expresses that the time taken is the same and given that the

vectors of the velocities of the river and the boat are perpendicular, the

distance covered in the direction of the boat is unaffected by the velocity

of the river.
