The speed of an object and the direction in which it moves constitute a vector quantity known as the velocity. an ostrich is run

ning at a speed of 14.0 m/s in a direction of 54.0 ° north of west. what is the magnitude of the ostrich's velocity component that is directed (a) due north and (b) due west?

Velocity of an object is its rate of change of the object's position per interval of time. Velocity is a vector quantity which means that it consists of a magnitude and a direction. Magnitude is represented by the speed and the direction is represented by the angle. To determine the velocity components, we use trigonometric functions to determine the angle of the components. For the north component we, use the sine function while, for the west component, we use the cosine function. We calculate as follows:
north velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (sin 54°) = 16.4 m/s
<span>west velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (cos 54°) = 3.49 m/s</span>

What distance will be traveled if you are going 120km/hr for 0.75 hr?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

60 km

Explanation:

For an object (or a person, such as in this case) moving at constant speed, the speed is equal to the ratio between the distance travelled and the time taken:

where

v is the speed

d is the distance

t is the time taken

In this case, we have:

v = 120 km/h is the speed

t = 30 min = 0.5 h is the time taken

Therefore, we can rearrange the equation to find the total distance travelled:

9966 [12]

Answer:

2.44156\times 10^{13}\ m^3

29010.53917 m

Explanation:

\rho = Density of asteroid = 2 g/cm³

V = Volume

d = Diameter = 10 km

r = Radius = \dfrac{d}{2}=\dfrac{10}{2}=5\ km

v = Velocity = 11 km/s

H_v = Heat vaporization of water = 2.26\times 10^6\ J/kg

\Delta T = Change in temperature = 100-20

Mass is given by

m=\rho V\\\Rightarrow m=\rho\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\Rightarrow m=2000\dfrac{4}{3}\times \pi\times 5000^3\\\Rightarrow m=1.0472\times 10^{15}\ kg

The kinetic energy is

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}1.0472\times 10^{15}\times 11000^2\\\Rightarrow K=6.33556\times 10^{22}\ J

Heat is given by

Q=mc\Delta T+mH_v\\\Rightarrow 6.33556\times 10^{22}=m\times (4186\times (100-20)+2.26\times 10^6)\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{ 6.33556\times 10^{22}}{4186\times (100-20)+2.26\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow m=2.44156\times 10^{16}\ kg

Mass of water is 2.44156\times 10^{16}\ kg

Volume is \dfrac{2.44156\times 10^{16}}{10^3}=2.44156\times 10^{13}\ m^3

Amount of water is 2.44156\times 10^{13}\ m^3

If it were a cube

h=V^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow h=(2.44156\times 10^{13})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow h=29010.53917\ m

The height of the water would be 29010.53917 m
