Question:

Vector A has x and y components of −8.80 cm  and 18.0 cm , respectively; vector B has x and  y components of 12.2 cm and −6.80 cm , respectively.  If A − B +3 C = 0, what are the components of C?

Answer:

x = ___ cm

y = ___ cm

Answer:

x = 7.0cm

y = -8.27cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For a vector F, with x and y components of a and b respectively, its unit vector representation is as follows;

F = ai + bj              [Where i and j are unit vectors in the x and y directions respectively]

Using this analogy, let's represent vectors A and B from the question in their unit vector notation.

<em>A has an x-component of -8.80cm and y-component of 18.0cm</em>

<em>B has an x-component of 12.2cm and y-component of -6.80cm,</em>

In unit vector notation, these become;

A = -8.80i + 18.0j

B = 12.2 i + (-6.80)j = 12.2i - 6.80j

Also, there is a third vector C. Let the x and y components of C be a and b respectively. Therefore,

C = ai + bj

Now,

A - B + 3C = 0                [substitute the vectors]

=> [-8.80i + 18.0j] - [12.2 i -6.80j] + [3(ai + bj)] =  0        [open brackets]

=> -8.80i + 18.0j - 12.2 i + 6.80j + 3(ai + bj) =  0

=> -8.80i + 18.0j - 12.2 i + 6.80j + 3ai + 3bj =  0

=> -8.80i + 18.0j - 12.2 i + 6.80j + 3ai + 3bj =  0  [collect like terms and solve]

=> -8.80i  - 12.2 i  + 3ai + 6.80j + 18.0j + 3bj =  0

=> -21.0 i  + 3ai + 24.8j + 3bj =  0       [re-arrange]

=> 3ai + 3bj = 21.0i - 24.8j

Comparing both sides shows that;

3a = 21.0  -------------(i)

3b = -24.8    -----------(ii)

From equation (i)

3a = 21.0

a = 21.0 / 3 = 7.0

From equation (ii)

3b = -24.8

b = -24.8 / 3

b = -8.27

Therefore, the x-component and y-component of vector B which are a and b, are 7.0cm and -8.27cm respectively.

The Monthly Bank pays 3 percent interest, compounded monthly, on their savings accounts. The Daily Bank pays 3 percent interest,
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The amount that we should deposit in each bank is around $942.

Step-by-step explanation:

Case 1:

A=$1000

n = 12

t = 2

r = 3% or 0.03

p = ?

The compound interest formula is :

A=p(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Substituting values in the formula;

1000=p(1+\frac{0.03}{12})^{12\times2}

=> 1000=p(1.0025)^{24}

=> 1000=1.06175p

p=\frac{1000}{1.06175}

p = $941.84

Case 2:

A=$1000

n = 365

t = 2

r = 3% or 0.03

p = ?

1000=p(1+\frac{0.03}{365})^{365\times2}

=> 1000=p(1.0000822)^{730}

=> 1000=1.06184p

p=\frac{1000}{1.06184}

p = $941.76

The amount that we should deposit in each bank is around $942.
