Answer:

51.82

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert both vectors to cartesian coordinates:

Va = 36 < 53° = (36*cos(53), 36*sin(53))

Va = (21.67, 28.75)

Vb = 47 < 157° = (47*cos(157), 47*sin(157))

Vb = (-43.26, 18.36)

The sum of both vectors will be:

Va+Vb = (-21.59, 47.11) Now we will calculate the module of this vector:

$|Va+Vb| = \sqrt{(-21.59)^2+(47.11)^2}=51.82$

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Force</u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

F = m.a

Where a is the acceleration of the object.

The acceleration can be calculated by solving for a:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{F}{m}$

Once we know the acceleration, we can calculate the distance traveled by the block as follows:

$\displaystyle d = vo.t+\frac{at^2}{2}$

If the block starts from rest, vo=0:

$\displaystyle d = \frac{at^2}{2}$

Substituting the value of the acceleration:

$\displaystyle d = \frac{\frac{F}{m}t^2}{2}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle d = \frac{Ft^2}{2m}$

When a force F'=4F is applied and assuming the mass is the same, the new acceleration is:

$\displaystyle a'=\frac{4F}{m}$

And the distance is now:

$\displaystyle d' = \frac{4Ft^2}{2m}$

Dividing d'/d:

$\displaystyle \frac{d' }{d}=\frac{\frac{4Ft^2}{2m}}{\frac{Ft^2}{2m}}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle \frac{d' }{d}=4$

Thus:

d' = 4d

The distance is now 4d

If an amount of heat Q is needed to increase the temperature of a solid metal sphere of diameter D from 4°C to 7°C, the amount o

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Q = c M ΔT where c is the heat capacity and M the mass present

Q2 / Q1 = M2 / M1 since the other factors are the same

M = ρ V where ρ is the density

M = ρ Π (d / 2)^2 where d is the diameter of the sphere

M2 / M1 = (2 D/2)^2 / (D/2)^2 = 4

It will take 4Q heat to heat the second sphere

Forces on a Baseball. When a baseballis thrown or hit, the resulting motion of the ball is determined by Newton's laws of motion. ... Lift and drag are actually two components of a single aerodynamic force acting on the ball. Drag acts in a direction opposite to the motion, and lift acts perpendicular to the motion.

An elevator weighing 2,200 lbs is raised one story in 20 seconds. If the distance between stories is 10 feet, the power is devel

kaheart [24]

Answer: 1100 ft lb/s and 2 H.P

Explanation:

To calculate for the power developed in the elevator motor in ft.lb/s, we multiply the distance and the weight of the elevator and divide the product by the time.

Power = (10 ft)(2200 lb) / 20 s = 1100 ft.lb/s

Next, convert the calculated value to HP.

1100 ft.lb/s x (1 HP/ 550 ft.lb/s) = 2 HP

hope this helps please give brainliest!
