cluponka [151]

Answer:

a) v₃ = 19.54 km, b)  70.2º north-west

Explanation:

This is a vector exercise, the best way to solve it is finding the components of each vector and doing the addition

vector 1 moves 26 km northeast

let's use trigonometry to find its components

         cos 45 = x₁ / V₁

         sin 45 = y₁ / V₁

         x₁ = v₁ cos 45

         y₁ = v₁ sin 45

         x₁ = 26 cos 45

         y₁ = 26 sin 45

         x₁ = 18.38 km

         y₁ = 18.38 km

Vector 2 moves 45 km north

        y₂ = 45 km

Unknown 3 vector

          x3 =?

          y3 =?

Vector Resulting 70 km north of the starting point

           R_y = 70 km

we make the sum on each axis

X axis

      Rₓ = x₁ + x₃

       x₃ = Rₓ -x₁

       x₃ = 0 - 18.38

       x₃ = -18.38 km

Y Axis

      R_y = y₁ + y₂ + y₃

       y₃ = R_y - y₁ -y₂

       y₃ = 70 -18.38 - 45

       y₃ = 6.62 km

the vector of the third leg of the journey is

         v₃ = (-18.38 i ^ +6.62 j^ ) km

let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length

         v₃ = √ (18.38² + 6.62²)

         v₃ = 19.54 km

to find the angle let's use trigonometry

           tan θ = y₃ / x₃

           θ = tan⁻¹ (y₃ / x₃)

           θ = tan⁻¹ (6.62 / (- 18.38))

           θ = -19.8º

with respect to the x axis, if we measure this angle from the positive side of the x axis it is

          θ’= 180 -19.8

          θ’= 160.19º

I mean the address is

          θ’’ = 90-19.8

          θ = 70.2º

70.2º north-west

A 615.00 kg race car is uniformly traveling around a circular race track. It takes the race car 20.00 seconds to do one lap arou
koban [17]

Answer:

The value is  f  =  0.05 \ Hz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The mass of the car is  m  =  615 \  kg

      The period of the circular motion is  T  =  20 \  s

      The radius  is r =  80 \  m/s

Generally the frequency of the circular motion is  

       f  =   \frac{1}{T }

=>    f  =   \frac{1}{ 20  }

=>    f  =  0.05 \ Hz

. A 40.0-kg child standing on a frozen pond throws a 0.500-kg stone to the east with a speed of 5.00 m/s. Neglecting friction be
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

A 40kg child throw stone of 0.5kg

At a direction of 5m/s

Recoil can be calculated using recoil of a gun formula

m_1•v_1 + m_2•v_2

m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2

The negative sign show that the momentum of the boy is directed oppositely to that of the stone

m_1 Is mass of boy

v_1 is the recoil velocity of the boy

m_2 is mass of stone

v_2 is the velocity of stone

Then,

m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2

40•v_1 = -0.5 × 5

40•v_1 = -2.5

v_1 = -2.5 / 40

v_1 = -0.0625 m/s

The recoil velocity of the boy is 0.0625 m/s

Find the wavelength λ of the 80.0-khz wave emitted by the bat. express your answer in millimeters.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

4.29 millimeters

Explanation:

Bats emit ultrasound waves: in air, ultrasound waves travel at a speed of

v=343 m/s

The frequency of the waves emitted by this bat is:

f=80.0 kHz = 80,000 Hz

Therefore we can find the wavelength of the wave emitted by the bat by using the relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{343 m/s}{80,000 Hz}=4.29\cdot 10^{-3} m=4.29 mm
