Answer:

The west axis component of walk is, A = 5 miles

The east axis component of walk is, B = 8 miles

Explanation:

Given data,

The displacement of hiker south of west, R = 9.4 miles

The angle formed south of west, Ф = 60°

The vector components along,

                   the west axis is

                                      A = R cosФ

                                       A = 9.4 x cos 60

                                       A = 4.7 miles

                                        A = 5 miles

The west axis component of walk is, A = 5 miles

                    the south axis is

                                      B = R sinФ

                                       B = 9.4 sin 60

                                        B = 8.14 miles

                                         B = 8 miles

The east axis component of walk is, B = 8 miles

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The height is 3.1m

Explanation:

Here we have a conservation of energy problem, we have a conversion form eslastic potencial  energy to gravitational potencial energy, so:

E_e=\frac{1}{2}K*x^2\\E_e=\frac{1}{2}18N/m*(9.5*10^{-2}m)^2\\E_e=0.081J

then we have only gravitational potencial energy when the ball is at its maximun height.

E_g=m*g*h

because all the energy was transformed Eg=Ee

h=\frac{0.081J}{9.8m/s^2*m}

searching the web, the mass of a ping pong ball is 2.7 gr in average. so:

h=\frac{0.081J}{9.8m/s^2*(2.7*10^{-3}kg)}\\h=3.1m
