Resultant of a pair of 100 km/h velocity vectors that are at right angels to each other
1 answer:
The resultant of the two vectors is 141 km/h.
Explanation:
When two vectors are at right angles to each other, their resultant can be calculated by using the Pythagorean's theorem:
where
A is the magnitude of the first vector
B is the magnitude of the second vector
In this problem, we have two velocity vectors of magnitude
A = 100 km/h
B = 100 km/h
Substituting into the formula, we find their resultant:

Answer:
-414.96 N
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration
The force the ground exerts on the parachutist is -414.96 N
If the distance is shorter than 0.75 m then the acceleration will increase causing the force to increase
