Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

A=3i-3j m

B=i-4 j m

C=-2i+5j m

a. $D=A+B+C$

$D=3i-3j+i-4j-2i+5j$

$D=2i-2j$

Compare with the vector r=xi+yj

We get x=2 and y=-2

Magnitude= $\mid D\mid=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}=\sqrt{(2)^2+(-2)^2}=2\sqrt 2$ units

By using the formula $\mid r\mid=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

Direction: $\theta=tan^{-1}\frac{y}{x}$

By using the formula

Direction of D: $\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{-2}{2})=tan^{-1}(-1)=tan^{-1}(-tan45^{\circ})=-45^{\circ}$

b.E=-A-B+C

$E=-3i+3j-i+4j-2i+5j$

$E=-6i+12j$

$\mid E\mid=\sqrt{(-6)^2+(12)^2}=13.4$ units

Direction of E= $\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{12}{-6}=tan^{-1}(-2)=-63.4^{\circ}$

A 0.0382-kg bullet is fired horizontally into a 3.78-kg wooden block attached to one end of a massless, horizontal spring (k = 8

wel

Answer:

$280.87$ ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Consider the motion of the bullet-block combination after collision

$m$ = mass of the bullet = 0.0382 kg

$M$ = mass of wooden block = 3.78 kg

$V$ = velocity of the bullet-block combination after collision

$k$ = spring constant of the spring = 833 N m⁻¹

$A$ = Amplitude of oscillation = 0.190 m

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of bullet-block combination after collision = Spring potential energy gained due to compression of spring

$(0.5)(m + M)V^{2} = (0.5)kA^{2}$

$(0.0382 + 3.78)V^{2} = (833)(0.190)^{2}$

$V = 2.81$ ms⁻¹

$v_{o}$ = initial velocity of the bullet before striking the block

Using conservation of momentum for the collision between bullet and block

$m v_{o} = (m + M) V$

$(0.0382) v_{o} = (0.0382 + 3.78) (2.81)$

$v_{o} = 280.87$ ms⁻¹

Aaron's normal response time to apply the car brakes is 0.7 seconds. Aaron's response time doubles when he is tired. How far wil

Likurg_2 [28]

Aaron's car is moving at speed of 30 m/s

His reaction time is given as 0.7 s

but when he is tired the reaction time is doubled

Now we need to find the distance covered by his car when he is tired during the time when he react to apply brakes

So here since during this time speed is given as constant so we can say that distance covered can be product of speed and time

So here we can use

$d = v*t$

$d = 30 * 1.4$

$d = 42 m$

So the car will move to 42 m during the time when he apply brakes

Because the elevator moves at a constant speed, it's in equilibrium and the net force acting on it is zero. Then the tension in the cable exactly equals the magnitude of the elevator's weight, which is
