Answer:

Magnitude = 14 metres

Direction = eastward.

Explanation:

A cross-country skier moves 36 meters eastward, then 44meters westward, and finally 22 meters eastward.

Whats the Magnitude and Direction?

The magnitude and direction will be the displacement of the cross country skier.

Let the east ward be positive and the west ward be negative.

Since the skier moves 36 meters eastward, then 44meters westward, and finally 22 meters eastward. Then, that will be:

36 - 44 + 22 = 14

Since the answer is positive, the magnitude is 14 and the direction is east ward.

The speed of a box traveling on a horizontal friction surface changes from vi = 13 m/s to vf = 11.5 m/s in a distance of d = 8.5
KiRa [710]

Answer:

0.68 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial velocity of box=u=13m/s

Final velocity of box=v=11.5 m/s

Distance=d=8.5 m

We have to find the time taken by box to slow by this amount.

We know that

v^2-u^2=2as

Substitute the values

(11.5)^2-(13)^2=2a(8.5)

132.25-169=17a

-36.75=17a

a=\frac{-36.75}{17}=-2.2m/s^2

We know that

Acceleration=a=\frac{v-u}{t}

Substitute the values

-2.2=\frac{11.5-13}{t}

-2.2=\frac{-1.5}{t}

t=\frac{1.5}{2.2}=0.68 s

Hence, the time taken by box to slow by this amount=0.68 s

7. Un bloque de 700 N se encuentra sobre una viga uniforme de 200 N y 6 m de longitud. El bloque está a una distancia de 1 m del
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

 x =  0.176 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we will take the condition of rotational equilibrium, where the reference system is located on the far left and the wire on the far right. We assume that counterclockwise turns are positive.

Let's use trigonometry to decompose the tension

      sin 60 = T_{y} / T

      T_{y} = T sin 60

       cos 60 = Tₓ / T

      Tₓ = T cos 60

we apply the equation

       ∑ τ = 0

       -W L / 2 - w x + T_{y} L = 0

 

the length of the bar is L = 6m

           -Mg 6/2 - m g x + T sin 60 6 = 0

             x = (6 T sin 60 - 3 M g) / mg

let's calculate

let's use the maximum tension that resists the cable T = 900 N

             x = (6 900 sin 60 - 3 200 9.8) / (700 9.8)

             x = (4676 - 5880) / 6860

             x = - 0.176 m

Therefore the block can be up to 0.176m to keep the system in balance.
