|V| = 10.33 units and the direction θ = -47.35° or 312.65°.

Given the x and y components of a vector, we can calculate the magnitude and direction from these components.

Applying the Pythagorean theorem we have that the magnitude of the vector is:

|V| = \sqrt{Vx^{2}+Vy^{2}  }

|V| = \sqrt{(7.00units)^{2}+(-7.60units)^{2}} = \sqrt{106units^{2}} = 10.33units

The expression for the direction of a vector comes from the definition of the tangent of an angle:

tan θ = \frac{Vy}{Vx} ------>  θ = arc tan \frac{Vy}{Vx}

θ = arc tan \frac{-7.60units}{7.00units}

θ = -47.35° or 312.65°

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

27.1 m/s

Explanation:

Given that at a race car driving event, a staff member notices that the skid marks left by the race car are 9.06 m long. The very experienced staff member knows that the deceleration of a car when skidding is -40.52 m/s2.

Using third equation of motion,

V^2 = U^2 + 2aS

Since the car is decelerating, the final velocity V = 0

Substitute all the parameter into the equation above,

0 = U^2 - 2 * 40.52 * 9.06

U^2 = 734.22

U = \sqrt{734.22}

U = 27.096

U = 27.1 m/s  approximately

Therefore, the staff member can estimate for the original speed of the race car to be 27.1 m/s if it came to a stop during the skid

Torque can be best described as which of the following? Give an example of both a force and a torque and explain why in a couple
kicyunya [14]

Answer: rotational force

Explanation:

Torque is the twisting force which cause rotation and the axis of rotation is the point at which the object rotates.

Torque is a rotational force as it leads to the rotation of an object about an axis. Force simply means a pull or push. When an unbalanced ball acts on a force, the ball, the ball will be moved towards the linear motion.

Then, the unbalanced force that is acting in the ball produces torque which causes the ball's rotational motion.
