Answer with explanation:

The given vectors in are reduced to their componednt form as shown

For vector A it can be written as

\overrightarrow{v}_{a}=16cos(44^{o})\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}

Similarly vector B can be written as

\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=-13\widehat{i}

Hence The sum and difference is calculated as

\overrightarrow{v}_{a}+\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=16cos(44^{o})\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}+(-13\widehat{i})\\\\\overrightarrow{v}_{a}+\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=(16cos(44^{o})-13)\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}\\\\\therefore \overrightarrow{v}_{a}+\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=-1.49\widehat{i}+11.11\widehat{j}\\\\\therefore |\overrightarrow{v}_{a}+\overrightarrow{v}_{b}|=\sqrt{(-1.49)^{2}+11.11^{2}}=11.21m

The direction is given by

\theta =tan^{-1}\frac{r_{y}}{r_{x}}\\\\\theta =tan^{-1}\frac{11.11}{-1.49}=97.64^{o}with positive x axis.

Similarly

\overrightarrow{v}_{a}-\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=16cos(44^{o})\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}-(-13\widehat{i})\\\\\overrightarrow{v}_{a}-\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=(16cos(44^{o})+13)\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}\\\\\therefore \overrightarrow{v}_{a}-\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=24.51\widehat{i}+11.11\widehat{j}\\\\\therefore |\overrightarrow{v}_{a}-\overrightarrow{v}_{b}|=\sqrt{(24.51)^{2}+11.11^{2}}=26.91m

The direction is given by

\theta =tan^{-1}\frac{r_{y}}{r_{x}}\\\\\theta =tan^{-1}\frac{11.11}{24.51}=24.38^{o}with positive x axis.

Why is Sir Francis Bacon sometimes referred to as "The Father of Modern Science"?
julsineya [31]

He proposed the scientific method. He thought it was best to base a theory on observation instead of think of a theory and then try to prove it. So the answer would be A.

The kinetic energy of the ball and the potential energy of the ball/Earth system were measured and organized in the spreadsheet
marin [14]

Based on the data provided, the thermal energies at the given time intervals are as follows:

  • At time t = 0.0 secs; thermal energy = 0.0 J
  • At time, t = 0.8 secs; thermal energy = 0.0 J
  • At time, t = 2.0 secs; thermal energy = 3.9 J
  • At time, t = 2.8 secs; thermal energy = 6.7 J

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy in an isolated system is conserved.

For a ball undergoing energy conversion between kinetic and potential energy, the sum of the energy remains constant.

Any reduction in total energy is due to conversion of some energy to thermal energy.

  • Sum of energy: Kinetic + potential + thermal = 15.2 J
  • Thermal energy = 15.2 - (PE + KE)

At time t = 0.0 secs

Thermal energy = 15.2 - (15.2 + 0.0)

Thermal energy = 0.0 J

At time, t = 0.8 secs

Thermal energy = 15.2 - (4.7 + 10.5)

Thermal energy = 0.0 J

At time, t = 2.0 secs

Thermal energy = 15.2 - (7.4 + 3.9)

Thermal energy = 3.9 J

At time, t = 2.8 secs

Thermal energy = 15.2 - (8.5 + 0.0)

Thermal energy = 6.7 J

Therefore, the thermal energies at the given time intervals are as follows:

  • At time t = 0.0 secs; thermal energy = 0.0 J
  • At time, t = 0.8 secs; thermal energy = 0.0 J
  • At time, t = 2.0 secs; thermal energy = 3.9 J
  • At time, t = 2.8 secs; thermal energy = 6.7 J
