If vx=9.80 units and vy=-6.40 units, determine the magnitude and direction of v

1 answer:

5 0

The resultant vector can be determined by the component vectors. The component vectors are vector lying along the x and y-axes. The equation for the resultant vector, v is:

v = √(vx² + vy²)
v = √[(9.80)² + (-6.40)²]
v = √137 or 11.7 units

An archer shoots an arrow 75 m distant target; the bull's-eye of the target is at the same height as the release height of the a

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

$16.25^{\circ}$

Explanation:

R = Horizontal range of projectile = 75 m

v = Velocity of projectile = 37 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.81\ \text{m/s}^2$

Horizontal range is given by

$R=\dfrac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{Rg}{v^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{75\times 9.81}{37^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=16.25^{\circ}$

The angle at which the arrow is to be released is $16.25^{\circ}$ .

As the wavelength of light decreases, What happens

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Waves. Refraction is an effect that occurs when a light wave, incident at an angle away from the normal, passes a boundary from one medium into another in which there is a change in velocity of the light. ... The wavelength decreases as the light enters the medium and the light wave changes direction.

Explanation:

As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease. From these equations you may realize that as the frequency increases, the wavelength gets shorter. ... Mechanical and electromagnetic waves with long wavelengths contain less energy than waves with short wavelengths.

What percentage of the original kinetic energy is convertible to internal energy?

schepotkina [342]

There would be very less percentage loss of the kinetic energy during the conversion to internal energy, assuming that there is less air in the surroundings. Also, the friction will contribute to the conversion where if it is, the percentage loses is negligible.

What is the Sl unit for speed

Akimi4 [234]

Answer: meter per second

Explanation: meter per second

Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the meter per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometer per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour. For air and marine travel the knot is commonly used.
