Initially, a particle is moving at 5.25 m/s at an angle of 35.5° above the horizontal. Three seconds later, its velocity is 6.0
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

 a =( -0.32 i ^ - 2,697 j ^)  m/s²

Explanation:

This problem is an exercise of movement in two dimensions, the best way to solve it is to decompose the terms and work each axis independently.

Break down the speeds in two moments

initial

  v₀ₓ = v₀ cos θ

  v₀ₓ = 5.25 cos 35.5

v₀ₓ = 4.27 m / s

   v_{oy} = v₀ sin θ

 v_{oy}= 5.25 sin35.5

v_{oy} = 3.05 m / s

Final

vₓ = 6.03 cos (-56.7)

vₓ = 3.31 m / s

v_{y} = v₀ sin θ

v_{y} = 6.03 sin (-56.7)

v_{y} = -5.04 m / s

Having the speeds and the time, we can use the definition of average acceleration that is the change of speed in the time order

    a = (v_{f} - v₀) /t

    aₓ = (3.31 -4.27)/3

    aₓ = -0.32 m/s²

    a_{y} = (-5.04-3.05)/3

   a_{y} =  -2.697 m/s²

3) If an airplane is in flight cruising at constant velocity, what can be said about the net work
Crazy boy [7]

Explanation:

<h2>Yes!</h2>

<h3>In physics, constant velocity occurs when there is no net force acting on the object causing it to accelerate. In terms of airplane flight, the two main forces influencing its velocity forward are drag and thrust. At a constant altitude, when the force of thrust equals the opposing force of drag, then the airplane will experience uniform motion in one direction. This can be further explained by Newton’s First Law. </h3>

A football player kicks a football in a field goal attempt. When the football reaches its maximum height, what is the relationsh
Stels [109]

At position of maximum height we know that the vertical component of its velocity will become zero

so the object will have only horizontal component of velocity

so at that instant the motion of object is along x direction

while if we check the acceleration of object then it is due to gravity

so the acceleration of object is vertically downwards

so it is along y axis

so here these two physical quantities are perpendicular to each other

so correct answer would be

<em>C)At the maximum height, the velocity and acceleration vectors are perpendicular to each other. </em>

uysha [10]

Answer:

f = 692 N

Explanation:

given data:

f =800N

a =1.2 m s^{2}

m= 90 kg

from newton's second law

net force F_{net} =\sum F = F_1 +F_2 +..... = ma

therefore we have from above equationF_{net} = F -f = ma

ma =F - f

putting all value to get force of friction

1.2*90 = 800 - f

f = 692 N

How are theories and laws connected ​
Anni [7]

Answer:

Laws are statements about something that's been observed and stated while a theory is an explanation of what's been observed. This connection between them forms a main idea that many people regulate as "what's normal."
