A cruise ship sails due south at 2.50 m/s while a coast guard patrol boat heads 19.0° north of west at 4.80 m/s. What are the x-

component and y-component of the velocity of the cruise ship relative to the patrol boat? (Assume that the +x-axis is east and the +y-axis is north. Enter your answers in m/s.)

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent the velocity of cruise ship and coast guard petrol boat in vector form .

velocity of cruise ship

Vcs = - 2.5 j

Vpb =  - 4.8 cos 19 i + 4.8 sin 19 j = - 4.54 i + 1.56 j

velocity of the cruise ship relative to the patrol boat

= Vcs - Vpb

=  - 2.5 j - ( - 4.54 i + 1.56 j  )

=  - 2.5 j  +  4.54 i -   1.56 j  

= 2.04 i - 1.56 j .

x-component of the velocity of the cruise ship relative to the patrol boat

= 2.04 m /s

y-component of the velocity of the cruise ship relative to the patrol boat

= - 1.56 m /s .

3. Calculate the wavelength of wave that has a frequency of 4.75 x 1012Hz.
Klio2033 [76]
  • Frequency=v=4.75×10^12Hz
  • Wavelength=?

We know

\boxed{\sf \lambda=\dfrac{C}{V}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto \lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8ms^{-1}}{4.75\times 10^{12}s^{-1}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto \lambda=0.631\times 10^{-4}m

\\ \sf\longmapsto \lambda=6.31\times 10^{-5}m

Who created the theory of general relativity?
pantera1 [17]
Who created the theory of general relativity?:

The answer would be: Albert Einstein.

Albert Einstein developed the general relativity theory (gravitation). 

The year he developed the general relativity theory or (GR) was back in 1907 and 1915. Then many other contributions after 1915.

Thanks,

Supposing d(t) is known to have value D,
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

  • The procedure is: solve the quadratic equation for t.

Explanation:

This question assumes uniformly accelerated motion, for which the distance d a particle travels in time t is given by the general equation:

  • d(t)=d_0+v_0t+at^2/2

That is a quadratic equation, where the independent variable is the time t.

Thus, the procedure that will find the time t at which the distance value is known to be D is to solve the quadratic equation for t.

To solve it you start by changing the equation to the general form of the quadratic equations, rearranging the terms:

  • (a/2)t^2+v_0t+(d_0-D)=0

Some times that equation may be solved by factoring, and always it can be solved by using the quadratic formula:

  • t=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

Where:

a=-a/2\\ \\ b=v_0\\ \\ c=d_0-D

That may have two solutions. Some times one of the solution makes no physical sense (for example time cannot be negative) but others the two solutions are valid.
