A roller-coaster car moves 172 ft horizontally and then rises 115 ft at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. it next travels

115 ft at an angle of 48.0° downward (below the horizontal). what is its displacement from its starting point? (assume the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x axis.)

172 + 115 cos 31 +115 cos 48 horizontally

115 sin 31 - 115 sin 48 vertically

possibly need some drawing

A kayaker paddles at 4.0 m/s in a direction 30° south of west. He then turns and paddles at 3.7 m/s in a direction 20° west of s

vichka [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

Magnitude of resultant velocity of kayaker to the nearest tenth = 10 m/s

Direction of resultant velocity of kayaker = 49.32⁰ South of west.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let east represents positive x- axis and north represent positive y - axis. Horizontal component is i and vertical component is j.

First kayaker paddles at 4.0 m/s in a direction 30° south of west, kayaker paddles at 4.0 m/s in a direction 210° anticlockwise from positive horizontal axis.

So velocity of kayaker = 4 cos 210 i + 4 sin 210 j = -3.46 i - 2 j

He then turns and paddles at 3.7 m/s in a direction 20° west of south, kayaker paddles at 3.7 m/s in a direction 250° anticlockwise from positive horizontal axis.

So that velocity = -1.27 i - 3.48 j

So resultant velocity of kayaker = -3.46 i - 2 j +(-1.27 i - 3.48 j) = -4.71 i - 5.48 j

Magnitude of resultant velocity of kayaker = $\sqrt{(-4.71)^2+(-5.48)^2} = 7.23 m/s$

Magnitude of resultant velocity of kayaker to the nearest tenth = 10 m/s

Direction of resultant positive horizontal axis, θ = tan⁻¹(-5.48/-4.71) = 229.32⁰ = 49.32⁰ South of west.

59. (II) The crate shown in Fig. 4-60 lies on a plane tilted at an angle A = 25.0° to the horizontal, with Mk 0.19. (a) Determin

Daniel [21]

Explanation:

a) We need to write down first Newton's 2nd law as applied to the given system. The equations of motion for the x- and y-axes can be written as follows:

$x:\;\;\;\;\;mg\sin 25° - \mu_kN = ma\;\;\;\;\;\;(1)$

$y:\;\;\;\;\;N - mg\cos 25° = 0\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;(2)$

From Eqn(2), we see that

$N = mg\cos 25°\;\;\;\;\;\;\;(3)$

so using Eqn(3) on Eqn(1), we get

$mg\sin 25° - \mu_kmg\cos 25° = ma$

Solving for the acceleration, we see that

$a = g(\sin 25° - \mu_k\cos 25°)$

$\;\;\;\;= 2.45\:\text{m/s}^2$

b) Now that we have the acceleration, we can now solve for the velocity of the crate at the bottom of the plane. Using the equation

$v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ax$

Since the crate started from rest, $v_0 = 0.$ Thus our equation reduces to

$v^2 = 2ax \Rightarrow v = \sqrt{2ax}$

$v = \sqrt{2(2.45\:\text{m/s}^2)(8.15\:\text{m})}$

$\;\;\;\;= 6.32\:\text{m/s}$

A vertical wall (8.7 m x 3.2 m) in a house faces due east. A uniform electric field has a magnitude of 210 N/C. This field is pa

Dominik [7]

Answer:

$\phi=4344.72Nm^2/c$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Dimension of Wall:

$(L*B)=(8.7 m * 3.2 m)$

Electric field $B=210 N/C$

Angle $\theta =42 \textdegree North$

Generally the equation for electric Flux is mathematically given by

$\phi=EAcos\theta$

$\phi=210*(8.7*3.2)*cos 42$

$\phi=4344.72Nm^2/c$

A car is moving initially at 30 m/s comes gradually at stop at 900 m . What is acceleration of the car ?

ziro4ka [17]

The acceleration of the car is 0.5 meters per seconds square.

Given the following data:

Initial velocity, U = 30 m/s

Distance, S = 900 meters

Note: The final velocity (V) of the car would be zero (0) m/s when it comes to a stop.

To find the acceleration of the car, we would use the third equation of motion;

Mathematically, the third equation of motion is given by the formula;

$V^2 = U^2 - 2aS\\\\0 = 30^2 - 2a(900)\\\\0 = 900 - 1800a\\\\1800a = 900\\\\a = \frac{900}{1800}$

<em>Acceleration, a </em><em>=</em><em> 0.5 </em> $m/s^2$ <em></em>

Therefore, the acceleration of the car is 0.5 meters per seconds square.
