A drunken sailor stumbles 550 meters north, 500 meters northeast, then 450 meters northwest. What is the total displacement and
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Resultant displacement = 1222.3 m

Angle is 88.3 degree from +X axis.

Explanation:

A = 550 m north

B = 500 m north east

C = 450 m north west

Write in the vector form

A = 550 j

B = 500 (cos 45 i + sin 45 j ) = 353.6 i + 353.6 j

C = 450 ( - cos 45 i + sin 45 j ) = - 318.2 i + 318.2 j

Net displacement is given by

R = (353.6 - 318.2) i + (550 + 353.6 + 318.2) j

R = 35.4 i + 1221.8 j

The magnitude is

R = \sqrt{35.4^{2}+1221.8^{2}}R = 1222.3 m

The direction is given by

tan\theta =\frac{1221.8}{35.4}\\\\\theta = 88.3^{o}

How much power should a braked 1.5t car have to be braked to reduce its speed from 30m / s to 10m / s in 5s?​
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

-120000 W

Explanation:

Power = change in energy / time

P = ΔE / t

P = (½ mv₂² − ½ mv₁²) / t

P = m (v₂² − v₁²) / (2t)

Given m = 1.5 t = 1500 kg, v₂ = 10 m/s, v₁ = 30 m/s, and t = 5 s:

P = (1500 kg) ((10 m/s)² − (30 m/s)²) / (2 × 5 s)

P = -120000 W

What two forces are most responsible for the formation of the cascade mountains
Ilya [14]
<span>The two foremost forces that were involved in the creation of the Cascade mountains are those of the tidal and tectonic forces. Tidal forces helped in eroding anything that was there previously, and the tectonic forces caused the eruption of these mountains to take place.</span>
