Mark Watney begins his day 15 km West and 25 km North of his Mars Habitat. a. Set up a co-ordinate system (draw labeled axis and

tickmarks showing the scale) and draw a vector representing the initial position of Mark Watney. b. Mark spends his day driving his Mars Rover towards Schiaparelli Crater and manages to make it an additional 20 km West but has to go around a hill so ended up 5 km South of his starting point for the day. Draw a vector representing Mark's total position change for the day. c. Using vector addition find Mark's position relative to the Mars Habitat. Give both the numerical description of the vector and show it on your plot.

Answer:

a, b) part a and b on diagram attached

c) sf = -35 i + 20 j

35 km West and 20 km North

Explanation:

For part a and b refer to the attached co-ordinate system:

Note: unit vector i is in West/East direction and unit vector j is in North/South direction.

si = -15 i + 25 j

sf-si  = -20 i - 5 j

Hence,

Mark relative position from habitat sf = si + sf/i

sf = ( -15 i + 25 j ) + ( -20 i - 5 j )

sf = -35 i + 20 j

35 km West and 20 km North

1. A 0.40 kg ball is launched at a speed of 16 m/s from a 22 m cliff.
Masja [62]

Answer:

51.2 J, 86.2 J, 137.4 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the ball is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 0.40 kg is its mass

v = 16 m/s is its speed

Substituting,

K=\frac{1}{2}(0.40)(16)^2=51.2  J

The potential energy of the ball is given by

U=mgh

where

m = 0.40 kg

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h = 22 m is the heigth of the cliff

Substituting,

U=(0.40)(9.8)(22)=86.2 J

Finally, the total mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy:

E=K+U=51.2 + 86.2=137.4 J

If you ride your bicycle down a straight road for 500m then turn around and ride back, your distance is____ your displacement.
Helen [10]

Answer:

C-less than

Explanation:

Distance is total distance traveled (1000m here if you stop where you started).

Displacement is your final distance from where you started (0m if you stop where you started).

0m<1000m

How much power does it take to lift 30.0 N 10.0 m high in 5.00 s?
Rudik [331]

Power = work/time = (Force times distance)/time

= (30N *10.0m)/5.00s = 300/5 = 60 Watts
