You are given a vector in the xy plane that has a magnitude of 90.0 units and a y component of -61.0 units. A) Assuming the x co

mponent is known to be positive, specify the magnitude of the vector which, if you add it to the original one, would give a resultant vector that is 80.0 units long and points entirely in the −x direction. B)Specify the direction of the vector. Express your answer using three significant figures.

Answer:

A) magnitude = sqrrt(147.1^2 + 61^2) = 159.2 units

B)22.5° (clockwise form -ve X axis)

Explanation:

given vector = V1 = x i - 60 j

magnitude of V1 = 90

x - component can be found out by resultant formula

90^2 = x^2 + (-60)^2

x = 67.08 = 67.1 units (3sf)

FOR THE VECTOR 80 UNITS IN -VE X DIRECTION

The X component is -80-------(1)

The Y component is 0 ---------(2)

<u>For the x- component of new added vector:</u>

(1)----------- x + 67.1 = -80

x = -147.1 = -147.1

<u>For the y- component of new added vector:</u>

<u>(</u>2)---------- y - 61  = 0

y = 61.0 (3sf)

the new added vector is  = -147.1 i + 61 j

magnitude = sqrrt(147.1^2 + 61^2) = 159.2 units

direction = arctan (61 / 147.1)

               = 22.5° (clockwise form -ve X axis)

How far does a car travel in 90 seconds if it’s traveling 55 m/s? Show equation
podryga [215]

You just said the car is traveling at the speed of 55 m/s.  If I understand this  correctly, that means the car will cover:

55 meters in the first second,

55 meters in the 2nd second,

55 meters in the 3rd second,

55 meters in the 4th second,

55 meters in the 5th second,

.

.

.

55 meters in the 87th second,

55 meters in the 88th second,

55 meters in the 89th second, and

55 meters in the 90th second.

That's 55 meters 90 times.  If you just move these words around a little bit, it says "90 times 55 meters" . . . a pretty simple arithmetic problem.

The equation is . . . <em>Distance = (55 m/s) times (time, in seconds)</em> .

I get <em>4,953 meters</em>.  You should check me on this.
