From\ cosine\ theorem:\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcos(\angle between\ a\ and\ b)\\\\
a=2,78\\b=6,25\\
\angle between\ a\ and\ b=90+50=140^{\circ}\\\\
c^2=2,78^2+6,25^2-2*2,78*6,25cos(140^{\circ})\\\\
c^2=7,7284+39,0625-34,75*(-0,77)\\\\c^2=46,7909+26,7575\\\\c^2=735484\\\\c=8,58cm\\\\Total\ displacement\ is\ equal\ to\ 8,58cm.

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

6.21 m/s

Explanation:

Using work energy equation then

U_{1-2}=T_B- T_A\\58d-mgh=0.5m(v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})

where d is displacement from initial to final position, v is velocity and subscripts a and b are position A and B respectively, m is mass of collar, g is acceleration due to gravity

Substituting 1 Kg for m, 0.4m for h, v_a as 0, 9.81 for g then

58(\sqrt{0.4^{2}+0.3^{2}}-0.1)-(1\times 9.81\times 0.4)=0.5\times 1\times (v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})\\19.276=0.5\times 1v_b^{2}\\v_b=6.209025688 m/s\approx 6.21 m/s

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

18 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of river is 8 m/s due South

From the shore, you see a boat moving South with a speed of 10 m/s. Both boat and river are moving in same direction. The resultant velocity will add up.

v = 10 m/s + 8 m/s

v = 18 m/s

Hence, the rowers are moving with a speed of 18 m/s.

The change in momentum experienced by a object is equivalent to the...
Papessa [141]

Answer: C (impulse acting on the object)

The momentum is defined as it is the impulse acting on the force . Change in momentum is known as Impulse. Impulse is used to increase or decrease the momentum of object.                                    

From Newtons II law

              F = m. a

                = m. v/t               <em>since a = rate of change of velocity.</em>

<em>              </em>F . t = m . v

F . t is known as impulse momentum

in positive numbers less than 1, the zeros between the decimal point and a non-zero number are _______ significant?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

If a number of less than 1, then the number has a decimal point like

0.085, 0.008 e.t.c.

The zeros before the none zero digit are insignificant. The significant figure is 8 and 5.

But if there a zero between the none zero e.g. 0.0087056

Here the zero between 7 and 5 is significant, then the significant numbers are 8,7,0,5,6

But if the zero is not in between the none zero digit, then the zero is insignificant

E.g 0.05800

The last two zero is insignificant, the significant number is 5 and 8

So, If a positive numbers less than 1, the zeros between the decimal point and a non-zero number are NOT significant.
