A pilot claims to have seen a UFO moving initially at a speed of about 351 m/s in an easterly direction and then, in a time inte

rval of only 1.0 s, turning 48° south of east and moving at 351 m/s. Compute the UFO's average acceleration during the turn. Find Magnitude and direction

Answer:

Explanation:

This problem can be solved easily if we represent velocity in the form of vector.

The velocity of 351 was towards easterly direction so

V₁ = 351 i

The velocity of 351 was towards south west making - 48° with east or + ve x direction.

V₂ = 351 Cos 48 i - 351 sin 48 j

V₂ = 234.86 i - 260.84 j

Change in velocity

= V₂ - V₁ = 234.86 i - 260.84 j - 351 i

= -116.14 i - 260.84 j

acceleration

= change in velocity / time

(-116.14 i - 260.84 j )/ 1

= -116.14 i - 260.84 j

magnitude = 285.53 ms⁻²

Direction

Tan θ = 260.84 / 116.14 = 2.246

θ = 66 degree south of west .

A football kick returner catches the ball just as a player from the opposing team dives to tackle him. At the time of impact, th
pochemuha

The total momentum of the players after collision is 130 kgm/s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Initial momentum of the returner, </em>P_i_1<em> = 0 kgm/s</em>
  • <em>The initial momentum of the diving player, </em>P_i_2<em> = 130 kgm/s</em>

The total momentum of the players after collision is determined by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

P_f = P_i_1 + P_i_2\\\\P_f = 0 + 130\\\\P_f = 130 \ kgm/s

Thus, the total momentum of the players after collision is 130 kgm/s.

The time constant for RC circuit with the values of R1 and C1 is 5ms. What will be the time constant for a new RC circuit with t
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

d. 25 ms

Explanation:

  • In a RC circuit we call time constant to the product of the resistance times the capacitance, which represents the time when the charge reaches to the 63% of the final value, as follows:

       \tau_{1} = R_{1} *C_{1}  = 5 ms (1)

  • If we have a new circuit with new values for R and C, the time constant will be defined in the same way, as follows:

       \tau_{2} =10* R_{1} *0.5*C_{1}  = 5*(R_{1}* C_{1}) = 5* \tau_{1} = 5* 5 ms = 25 ms (2)

The resistance between 2 points in an electrical circuit is 1.1 Ω. What additional resistance
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

the new resister is 11 ohms.

Explanation:

Set it  up like this.

1/x + 1/1.1 = 1                    Subtract 1/1.1 from both sides

1/x = 1 - 1/1.1

1 - 1/1.1 = 1/11

1/x = 1/11                          Cross multiply

11 = x

If 1/11 bothers you, you could do it it another way.

1 - 1/1.1 = (1.1 - 1 ) / 1.1 = 0.1 / 1.1  Multiply top and bottom by 10

0.1*10/(1.1 * 10 ) = 1 / 11
