Answer:

The magnitude of the resultant vector is 22.66 cm and it has a direction of 29.33°

Explanation:

To find the resultant vector, you first calculate x and y components of the two vectors M and N. The components of the vectors are calculated by using cos and sin function.

For M vector you obtain:

M=M_x\hat{i}+M_y\hat{j}\\\\M=15.0cm\ cos(20\°)\hat{i}+15.0cm\ sin(20\°)\hat{j}\\\\M=14.09cm\ \hat{i}+5.13\ \hat{j}

For N vector:

N=N_x\hat{i}+N_y\hat{j}\\\\N=8.0cm\ cos(40\°)\hat{i}+8.0cm\ sin(40\°)\hat{j}\\\\N=6.12cm\ \hat{i}+5.142\ \hat{j}

The resultant vector is the sum of the components of M and N:

F=(M_x+N_x)\hat{i}+(M_y+N_y)\hat{j}\\\\F=(14.09+6.12)cm\ \hat{i}+(5.13+5.142)cm\ \hat{j}\\\\F=20.21cm\ \hat{i}+10.27cm\ \hat{j}

The magnitude of the resultant vector is:

|F|=\sqrt{(20.21)^2+(10.27)^2}cm=22.66cm

And the direction of the vector is:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{10.27}{20.21})=29.93\°

hence, the magnitude of the resultant vector is 22.66 cm and it has a direction of 29.33°

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The canon B hits the ground fast.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of cannon A = 85 m/s

Speed of cannon B= 100 m/s

Speed of cannon C = 75 m/s

We need to calculate the cannonballs will hit the ground with the greatest speed

Using conservation of energy

The final kinetic energy of canon depends on initial kinetic energy and potential energy.

The  final velocity depends upon initial velocity and initial height.

So,  the initial velocity of canon B is high.

Hence, The canon B hits the ground fast.
