Find the westward component of a resultant vector 85.42 unit, 23 degrees W of N

Sindrei [870]

Since the angle is West of North, therefore to find for the westward component (horizontal component) of the vector, we use the sin function:

sin θ = opposite side / hypotenuse = westward component / resultant vector

So the westward component (x) is:

x = 85.42 sin 23

<span>x = 33.38 unit</span>

Vector A has magnitude of 8units and makes an angle of 45° with the positive x-axis. Vector B also has the same magnitude of 8un

iragen [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Because vectors have direction and x and y components you can't just add them and say that their length is 16 because A is 8 units and so is B. What you're actually finding is the magnitude and direction of the vector that results from this addition. The magnitude is the length of the resultant vector, which comes from the x and y components of A and B, and the direction is the angle between the resultant vector and the positive x axis. To add the vectors, then, we need to find the x and y components of each. We'll do the x components of A and B first so we can add them to get the x component of C. Since x values are directly related to cos, the formula to find the x components of vectors is

$V_x=Vcos\theta$ which is the magnitude of the vector (its length) and the angle. Finding the x components of A:

$A_x=8.0cos45$ so

$A_x=5.7$ and for B:

$B_x=8.0cos180$ since the negative x axis is the 180 degree axis and

$B_x=-8.0$ If we add them, we get

$C_x=-2.3$

Now onto the y components. The formula for that is almost the same as the x components except use sin instead of cos:

$A_y=8.0sin45$ so

$A_y=5.7$ and

$B_y=8.0sin180$ so

$B_y=0$ If we add them, we get

$C_y=5.7$

Now for the final magnitude:

$C_{mag}=\sqrt{(-2.3)^2+(5.7)^2}$ and

$C_{mag}=6.1 units$ and now onto the direction.

The x component of C is positive and the y component is negative, which means that the direction has us at an angle is quadrant 2; we add 180 to whatever the angle is. Finding the angle:

$tan^{-1}(\frac{C_y}{C_x})=(\frac{5.7}{-2.3})$ = -68 + 180 = 112 degrees

The resultant vector of A + B has a magnitude of 6.1 and a direction of 112°

Do the same thing for subtraction, except if you're subtracting B from A, the direction that B is pointing has to go the opposite way. That means that A doesn't change anything at all, but B is now pointing towards 0.

$A_x=5.7$ (doesn't change from above)

$B_x=8.0cos0$ and

$B_x=8.0$ so

$C_x=13.7$ and

$A_y=5.7$ (also doesn't change from above)

$B_y=8.0sin0$ so

$B_y=0$ and

$C_y=5.7$ and for the magnitude:

$C_{mag}=\sqrt{(13.7)^2+(5.7)^2$ so

$C_{mag}=15units$ and for the direction:

$tan^{-1}(\frac{5.7}{13.7})=23$ and since both x and y components of C are in Q1, we add nothing.

And you're done!!!

Aerosol cans use compressed gases to propel the contents out of the can. Which of the following is the best explanation for why

vovangra [49]

Answer:

As the can heats, the compressed gases will expand, causing the can to explode

Explanation:

We know that the gases in the aerosol can would assume the shape and volume of the can. The volume of the can would be the volume of the compressed gas.

As heat is added to the can, the aerosol gases would gain kinetic energy and their speed would increase. The gases would begin to expand and would require more space in order to move. This would indirectly increase the pressures between gas molecules and the walls of the can as collisions soars.

A point would eventually be reached where the gas agitation would lead to an explosion.

Overheated aerosol cans would explode.
