Answer:

  • The magnitude of the vector \vec{C} is 107.76 m

Explanation:

To find the components of the vectors we can use:

\vec{A} = | \vec{A} | \ ( \ cos(\theta) \ , \ sin (\theta) \ )

where | \vec{A} | is the magnitude of the vector, and θ is the angle over the positive x axis.

The negative x axis is displaced 180 ° over the positive x axis, so, we can take:

\vec{A} = 56.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 180 \° + 30 \°) \ , \ sin (180 \° + 30 \°) \ )

\vec{A} = 56.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 210 \°) \ , \ sin (210 \°) \ )

\vec{A} = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ , \ - 28 \ m \ )

\vec{B} = 82.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 180 \° - 49 \°) \ , \ sin (180 \° - 49 \°) \ )

\vec{B} = 82.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 131 \°) \ , \ sin (131 \°) \ )

\vec{B} = ( \ -53.797 \ m \ , \ 61.886\ m \ )

Now, we can perform vector addition. Taking two vectors, the vector addition is performed:

(a_x,a_y) + (b_x,b_y) = (a_x+b_x,a_y+b_y)

So, for our vectors:

\vec{C} = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ , \ - 28 \ m \ ) + ( \ -53.797 \ m \ ,  ) = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ -53.797 \ m , \ - 28 \ m \ + \ 61.886\ m \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ - 102.294 \ m , \ 33.886 m \ )

To find the magnitude of this vector, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem

|\vec{C}| = \sqrt{C_x^2 + C_y^2}

|\vec{C}| = \sqrt{(- 102.294 \ m)^2 + (\ 33.886 m \)^2}

|\vec{C}| =107.76 m

And this is the magnitude we are looking for.

An eastbound car travels a displacement of 80.0 Km in 45 minutes. What is the velocity
alexgriva [62]

Explanation:

d= 80km = 8000m

t = 45 min = 45/60 h

= 0.75 h

V= ?

we know that,

V = d /t

or,V= 80 km / 0.75 h

  1. or, V= 106.67 km/hr

or,V= 106.67×1000m / 3600 s

2. or, V= 29.63 m/s

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Mass will not change based on location, while weight will change based on gravitational pull.

Explanation:

The formula for weight is mass*gravitational pull, hence weight changes based on gravitational pull

A 5 kg object slows from +6 m/s to +2 m/s. What is the impulse?
Liula [17]

Impulse on the object: -20 kg m/s

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on an object is a vector quantity equal to the product between the force exerted on the object and the time interval during which the force is applied.

The impulse exerted on an object is also equal to its change in momentum. Mathematically,

I=\Delta p = m(v-u)

where:

m is the mass of the object

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

For the object in this problem, we have

m = 5 kg

u = +6 m/s

v = +2 m/s

Therefore, its impulse is:

I=(5)(+2-(+6))=-20 kg m/s

The negative sign means the direction of the impulse is opposite to the direction of motion of the object.
