Position:                 x = 18t    y = 4t - 4.9t²

First derivative:        x' = 18      y' = 4 - 9.8t

Second derivative:    x'' = 0        y'' = - 9.8


Position vector:      P  =  (18t) i  +  (4t - 4.9t²) j

Velocity vector:      V  =  (18) i  +  (4 - 9.8t) j

Acceleration vector  A  =              (- 9.8) j

Explanation:

It is given that,

A golf ball is hit off a tee at the edge of a cliff. The x component is given by, x = 18 t

y component is given by, y = 4 t - 4.9 t²

Where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds.

(a) The ball’s position as a function of time, using the unit vectors is given by :

r=18t+(4t-4.9t^2)

(b) Velocity, v=\dfrac{dr}{dt}

v=\dfrac{d(18t+(4t-4.9t^2)}{dt}

v=18+(4-9.8t)

i.e. v = 18 i +(4 - 9.8t) j

(c) Acceleration vector, a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

a=\dfrac{d(18i+(4-9.8t)j}{dt}

a = -9.8 j m/s²

(d) Expressions for the position at t = 3 s

r=18(3)i+(4(3)-4.9(3)^2)j

r = (54 i - 32.1 j) m

Expressions for the velocity at t = 3 s

v = 18 i +(4 - 9.8(3)) j

v = (18 i -25.4 j) m/s

Expressions for the acceleration at t = 3 s

a = -9.8 m/s² j

Hence, this is the required solution.

If two vectors are perpendicular to each other, how should you add them?
Aleksandr [31]

Let us consider two vectors A and B.

As per the question, the two vectors are perpendicular to each other.

Hence the angle between them  \theta =90 degree

We are asked to calculate the resultant of these two vectors.

As per parallelogram law of vector addition, the resultant of two vectors are-

                      R=\sqrt{A^{2}+ B^{2}+2ABcos\theta

                                =\sqrt{ A^{2}+ B^{2}+2AB*cos90}    [cos90=0]

                                =\sqrt{ A^{2}+ B^{2}

This is the way by which we can add two perpendicular vectors.

Many caterpillars construct cocoons from silk, one of the strongest naturally occurring materials known. Each thread is typicall
joja [24]

Answer:

a) N = 145,833,674.52174 = 1.458 × 10⁸ strands

b) diameter of single rope with the same effect = 2.415 cm

Explanation:

Hooke's law explains that stress is directly proportional to strain.

Stress ∝ Strain.

Stress = E × Strain

E = constant of proportionality = Young's Modulus = 4.0 ✕ 10⁹ N/m².

Stress = (Load/Total Cross sectional Area)

Load = a pair of 85 kg mountain climbers = 85 × 2 × 9.8 = 1666 N

Total Cross sectional Area = (Number of strands) × (Area of one strand) = A

Strain = (ΔL/L)

ΔL = 1.00 cm = 0.01 m

L = 11 m

Strain = (0.01/11) = 0.0009091

Stress = (Young's Modulus) × (Strain) = (4.0 ✕ 10⁹) × (0.0009091) = 3,636,363.64 N/m²

(Load/ total Area) = 3,636,363.64

Total area = (Load/3,636,363.64) = (1666/3,636,363.64) = 0.00045815 m²

Recall,

Total Cross sectional Area = (Number of strands) × (Area of one strand)

Area of one strand = (πd²/4)

diameter of one strand = 2 μm = (2×10⁻⁶) m

Area of one strand = (πd²/4)

= π × (2×10⁻⁶)² ÷ 4 = (3.142 × 10⁻¹²) m²

Total Cross sectional Area = (Number of strands) × (Area of one strand)

0.00045815 = N × (3.142 × 10⁻¹²)

N = 145,833,674.52174 = 1.458 × 10⁸ strands

b) If it was a single rope, the cross sectional Area would just be equal to the total cross sectional Area obtained in (a)

A = 0.00045815 m²

A = (πD²/4)

where D = diameter of the single rope

0.00045815 = (πD²/4)

D² = (4×0.00045815) ÷ π = 0.0005833347

D = 0.02415 m = 2.415 cm

Hope this Helps!!!

A cannon fires a shell straight upward; 2.3 s after it is launched, the shell is moving upward with a speed of 17 m/s. Assuming
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The speed of the shell at launch and 5.4 s after the launch is 13.38 m/s it is moving towards the Earth.                    

Explanation:

Let u is the initial speed of the launch. Using first equation of motion as :

u=v-at

a=-g

u=v+gt\\\\u=17+9.8\times 2.3\\\\u=39.54\ m/s

The velocity of the shell at launch and 5.4 s after the launch is given by :

v=u-gt\\\\v=39.54-9.8\times 5.4\\\\v=-13.38\ m/s

So, the speed of the shell at launch and 5.4 s after the launch is 13.38 m/s it is moving towards the Earth.
