A ship leaves the island of Guam and sails a distance 255 km at an angle 49.0 o north of west. Part A: In which direction must i

t now head so that its resultant displacement will be 125 km directly east of Guam? (Express your answer as an angle measured south of east) Part B: How far must it sail so that its resultant displacement will be 125 km directly east of Guam?

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent displacement in vector form .Consider east as x axes and north as Y axes west as - ve x axes and south as - ve Y axes . 255 km can be represented by the following vector

D₁ = - 255 cos 49 i  + 255 sin49 j

= - 167.29 i + 192.45 j

Let D₂ be the further displacement which lands him 125 km east . So the resultant displacement is

D = 125 i

So

D₁ + D₂ = D

- 167.29 i + 192.45 j + D₂ = 125 i

D₂ = 125 i + 167.29 i - 192.45 j

= 292.29 i - 192.45 j

Angle of D₂ with x axes θ

tan θ = -192.45 / 292.29

= - 0.658

θ = 33.33 south of east

Magnitude of D₂

D₂² = ( 192.45)² + ( 292.29)²

D₂ = 350 km approx

Q.3. The equivalent resistance across AB is:<br> (a)1<br> (c)2<br> (b)3<br> (d)4
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

1 ohm

Explanation:

First of all, the equivalent resistance for two resistors (r₁ and r₂) in parallel is given by:

1 / Eq = (1 / r₁) + (1 / r₂)

The equivalent resistance for resistance for two resistors (r₁ and r₂) in series is given by:

Eq = r₁ + r₂

Hence as we can see from the circuit diagram, 2Ω // 2Ω, and 2Ω // 2Ω, hence:

1/E₁ = 1/2 + 1/2

1/E₁ = 1

E₁ = 1Ω

1/E₂ = 1/2 + 1/2

1/E₂ = 1

E₂ = 1Ω

This then leads to E₁ being in series with E₂, hence the equivalent resistance (E₃) of E₁ and E₂ is:

E₃ = E₁ + E₂ = 1 + 1 = 2Ω

The equivalent resistance (Eq) across AB is the parallel combination of E₃ and the 2Ω resistor, therefore:

1/Eq = 1/E₃ + 1/2

1/Eq = 1/2 + 1/2

1/Eq = 1

Eq = 1Ω
