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.

You are riding a bicycle home from school. You average 5 meters per second and you are headed south.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

(OD) Velocity

Explanation:

Here, the rider is moving with a steady speed (5 m/s) towards south. In this example, we have magnitude as well as direction. Since velocity is a vector quantity, thus we can determine the velocity of the rider.

Define average velocity <br>​
maxonik [38]
Hello! mark me brainliest please

The average speed of an object is defined as the distance traveled divided by the time elapsed. Velocity is a vector quantity, and average velocity can be defined as the displacement divided by the time.

What is difference between non uniform and uniform circular motion?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The object in a uniform motion covers same distances in an equal time period. Objects in a non-uniform motion cover dissimilar distances in an equal time period.

Explanation:

The speed of the object traveling in uniform motion is constant, the actual speed and the average speed of the moving body is same.

At the outer edge of a rotating space habitat, 130 m from the center, the rotational acceleration is g. What is the rotational a
enyata [817]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

R1 = 130 m

R2 = 65 m

w^2R = g

Assume, g = 9.81 m/s^2

w^2 = 9.81/130

w = 0.275 rad/s

At R2 = 65 m

g = w^2R

= (0.275^2) × 65

= 4.905 m/s^2

In conclusion,

g × R = k

g1/R1 = g2/R2

g2 = (g1 × 65)/130

= g1 ×1/2

= g1/2
