Answer:

398.3 m, 334.2 m

Explanation:

The magnitude of the displacement vector is

v = 520 m

And its direction is

\theta=40^{\circ}

measured as north of east.

The x-component of this vector is given by:

v_x = v_0 cos \theta = (520)cos 40^{\circ}=398.3 m

While the y-component is given by

v_y = v_0 sin \theta =(520)sin 40^{\circ}=334.2 m

The horse on a carousel is 3.5m from the central axis.A. If the carousel rotates at 0.13 rev/s , how long does it take the horse
Kitty [74]

Answer:

a. 15.4 seconds

b. 0.455 m/s

Explanation:

a. The carousel rotates at 0.13 rev/s.

This means that it takes the carousel 1 sec to make 0.13 of an entire revolution.

This means that time it will take to make a complete revolution is:

1 / 0.13 = 7.7 seconds

Therefore, the time it will take to make 2 revolutions is:

2 * 7.7 = 15.4 seconds

b. Let us calculate the linear velocity. Angular velocity is given as:

\omega = v / r

where v = linear velocity and r = radius

The radius of the circle is 3.5 m and the angular velocity is 0.13 rev/s, therefore:

0.13 = v / 3.5

v = 3.5 * 0.13 = 0.455 m/s

Linear velocity is 0.455 m/s

a plane is flying due east in still air at 395 km/h. suddenly, the plane is hit by wind blowing at 55km/h toward the west. what
Sphinxa [80]
Let's be clear:  The plane's "395 km/hr" is speed relative to the
air, and the wind's "55 km/hr" is speed relative to the ground.

Before the wind hits, the plane moves east at 395 km/hr relative
to both the air AND the ground.

After the wind hits, the plane still maintains the same air-speed.
That is, its velocity relative to the air is still 395 km/hr east.
But the wind vector is added to the air-speed vector, and the
plane's velocity <span>relative to the ground drops to 340 km/hr east</span>.
