<u>Two or more velocities are added up by</u><u> vector addition method. </u>

Further Explanation:

The velocity is a vector quantity. A vector quantity is a unit that required the magnitude as well as the direction for its representation.

The velocity of a body is defined as the rate of change of displacement of the body in a particular direction. Since the velocity consists of the magnitude and the direction both, the simple method of addition cannot be applied for its addition.

The vector addition of the velocities comprise of the resultant magnitude of velocity as the angle made by the resultant.

The resultant magnitude of the velocity is given as:

\boxed{{v_r} = \sqrt {v_x^2 + v_y^2} }  

Here, {v_r} is the resultant magnitude and {v_x}\,\& \,{v_y} are the components of velocities in x and y directions.

The angle made by the resultant velocity is given by:

\boxed{\theta  = {{\tan }^{ - 1}}\dfrac{{{v_y}}}{{{v_x}}}}  

Thus, the addition of two or more velocities takes place by the vector addition method.

By vector addition.
In fact, velocity is a vector, with a magnitude intensity, a direction and a verse, so we can't simply do an algebraic sum of the two (or more velocities). 
First we need to decompose each velocity on both x- and y-axis (if we are on a 2D-plane), then we should do the algebraic sum of all the components on the x- axis and of all the components on the y-axis, to find the resultants on x- and y-axis. And finally, the magnitude of the resultant will be given by
R= \sqrt{(R_x)^2+(R_y)^2}
where Rx and Rx are the resultants on x- and y-axis. The direction of the resultant will be given by
\tan \alpha =  \frac{R_y}{R_x}
where \alpha is its direction with respect to the x-axis.

Jamal is skating on a sidewalk. His initial velocity is 0.0 m/s; 35 seconds later his velocity is 5.0 m/s. What is his accelerat
maxonik [38]

Answer:

answer is 0.1428

Explanation:

Data:- vf=5.0 , vi=0.0 , t=35 , a=? so appling first eq of motion vf=vi+at we have to find a=vf-vi/t , a=5.0-0.0/35 , a=5/35 ,a=0.1428m/sec²

An electric fan is running on HIGH. After fan has been running for 1.1 minutes, the LOW button is pushed. The fan slows down to
madam [21]

Answer:

ωi = 15.4 rev/sec

Explanation:

Since the movement of the fan is rotating, we are thus dealing with Rotational motion. In rotational motion, for angular speed to take place also means angular acceleration is also occurring.

angular acceleration = α = (change in speed)/(change in time)

angular acceleration = α = Δw/Δt = (ω - ωi) /(t- t₀) ..........(equation 1)

                                      α =  (ω -ωi) /(t- 0)

                                      α =  (ω-ωi) /t

                                      ωi  =  ω - αt ......................................(equation 2)

where ωi is the initial angular speed.

We replace the values for ω, t and α

ωi = 105 rad/sec - ( 4.4 rad/sec² )(1.85s) = 96.86 rad/s = 15.415747788 rev/sec

Find the energy in Joules required to lift a 55.0 Megagram object a distance of 500 cm.
fredd [130]

Energy to lift something =

               (mass of the object) x (gravity) x (height of the lift).

BUT ...

This simple formula only works if you use the right units.

Mass . . . kilograms
Gravity . . . meters/second²
Height . . . meters

For this question . . .

Mass = 55 megagram = 5.5 x 10⁷ grams = 5.5 x 10⁴ kilograms

Gravity (on Earth) = 9.8 m/second²

Height = 500 cm  =  5.0 meters

So we have ...

Energy = (5.5 x 10⁴ kilogram) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m)

            =  2,696,925 joules .

That's quite a large amount of energy ... equivalent to
straining at the rate of 1 horsepower for almost exactly an
hour, or burning a 100 watt light bulb for about 7-1/2 hours.

The reason is the large mass that's being lifted.
On Earth, that much mass weighs about 61 tons.

The attraction will vary directly with the separation between the charges.

No it won't. It'll vary inversely as the square of the separation.
