Answer:

The depth of stream to the student is $d_1 = 0.2932 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The actual depth of the stream is $d = 39 \ cm = 0.39 \ m$

The refractive index of the water is $n = 1.33$

Generally the apparent depth of the stream is mathematically represented as

$d_1 = \frac{d}{1.33}$

substituting values

$d_1 = \frac{ 0.39}{1.33}$

$d_1 = 0.2932 \ m$

What role does Nitrogen play for all living organisms?

Y_Kistochka [10]

It is an important part of many cells and processes such as amino acids, proteins and even our DNA. It is also needed to make chlorophyll in plants, which is used in photosynthesis to make their food.

Hope this helps! ;)

A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 21.4 m/s in the y direction when one of its onboard thruster turn

kumpel [21]

Answer:

a) The magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 24.177 meters per second.

b) The direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 62.266º.

Explanation:

Statement is incomplete. The complete description is now described below:

<em>A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 21.4 m/s in the y direction when one of its onboard thruster turns on, causing an acceleration of 0.250 m/s2 in the x direction. The acceleration lasts for 45.0 s, at which point the thruster turns off. </em>

<em>(a) What is the magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off</em>

<em>(b) What is the direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off? Give your answer as an angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-axis. ° counterclockwise from the +x-axis</em>

Let be x and y-directions orthogonal to each other and the satellite is accelerated uniformly from rest in the +x direction and moves at constant velocity in the +y direction. The velocity vector of the satellite ( $\vec{v}_{S}$ ), measured in meters per second, is:

$\vec{v}_{S} = (v_{o,x}+a_{x}\cdot t)\,\hat{i}+v_{y}\,\hat{j}$

Where:

$v_{o,x}$ - Initial velocity in +x direction, measured in meters per second.

$a_{x}$ - Acceleration in +x direction, measured in meter per square second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

$v_{y}$ - Velocity in +y direction, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $v_{o,x} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $a_{x} = 0.250\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , $t = 45\,s$ and $v_{y} = 21.4\,\frac{m}{s}$ , the final velocity of the satellite is:

$\vec{v}_{S} = \left[0\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(0.250\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (45\,s) \right]\,\hat{i}+\left(21.4\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\,\hat{j}$

$\vec{v_{S}} = 11.25\,\hat{i}+21.4\,\hat{j}\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]$

a) The magnitud of the satellite's velocity can be found by the resource of the Pythagorean Theorem:

$\|\vec {v}_{S}\| = \sqrt{\left(11.25\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+\left(21.4\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}$

$\|\vec{v}_{S}\| \approx 24.177\,\frac{m}{s}$

The magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 24.177 meters per second.

b) The direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is determined with the help of trigonometric functions:

$\tan \alpha = \frac{v_{y}}{v_{x}} = \frac{21.4\,\frac{m}{s} }{11.25\,\frac{m}{s} }$

$\tan \alpha = 1.902$

$\alpha = \tan^{-1}1.902$

$\alpha \approx 62.266^{\circ}$

The direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 62.266º.

use the instantaneous center of zero velocity to determine the angular velocity !ab of link ab and the velocity vb of collar b f

allsm [11]

Instantaneous center:

It is the center about a body moves in planer motion. The velocity of Instantaneous center is zero and Instantaneous center can be lie out side or inside the body. About this center every particle of a body rotates.

From the diagram

Where these two lines will cut then it will the I-Center.Point A and B is moving perpendicular to the point I.

If we take three link link1,link2 and link3 then I center of these three link will be in one straight line It means that they will be co-linear.

Therefore, when the mass is at its equilibrium position (which corresponds to x=0), the velocity of the mass will be maximum.
