If you add two velocity vectors going in opposite directions, will the resultant vector be smaller or larger than the vectors yo

u are adding?
Choose the correct answer with the correct reasoning.

Question 11 options:

smaller, because the vectors are added to each other and increase the velocity


larger, because the vectors are added to each other and increase the velocity


smaller, because part of the velocities cancel each other out


larger, because the part of the velocities cancel each other out

smaller, because the part of the velocities cancel each other out

Lemur [1.5K]2 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

If two vectors going in opposite directions and we add them, the resultant is given by the sum of vectors as :

R=\sqrt{A^2+B^2+2AB\ cos(180)}, cos (180) = -1

R=A+(-B)

If the vectors are in same directions, the resultant is equal to the sum of vectors. Here, the resultant of two vectors is smaller because the part of the velocities cancel out each other. Hence, the correct option is (c).

Two pipes of equal length are each open at one end. Each has a fundamental frequency of 470 Hz at 310 K. In one pipe the air tem
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Given:

Fundamental frequency: 470Hz

T1:310k,T2:315k

Calculating velocity

Recall v=(331m/s)✓[T1/273k)

V=331✓(310/273)

V1=331*(1.0656)=352.72m/s

V2=331✓(315/273)=355.5m/s

Fundamental frequency=4L

F2=F1(V2/V1)

F2=470(355.5/352.72)=474.4Hz

Beat=[F2-F1]=474.4-470=4.4Hz

A ball is dropped from rest from the top of a building of height h. At the same instant, a second ball is projected vertically u
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

a) t = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}

b) Ball 1 has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height is the same for both balls = 3h/4.

Explanation:

a) We can find the time when the two balls meet by equating the distances as follows:

y = y_{0_{1}} + v_{0_{1}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}  

Where:

y_{0_{1}}: is the initial height = h

v_{0_{1}}: is the initial speed of ball 1 = 0 (it is dropped from rest)

y = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}     (1)

Now, for ball 2 we have:

y = y_{0_{2}} + v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    

Where:

y_{0_{2}}: is the initial height of ball 2 = 0

y = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    (2)

By equating equation (1) and (2) we have:

h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

t=\frac{h}{v_{0_{2}}}

Where the initial velocity of the ball 2 is:

v_{f_{2}}^{2} = v_{0_{2}}^{2} - 2gh

Since v_{f_{2}}^{2} = 0 at the maximum height (h):

v_{0_{2}} = \sqrt{2gh}

Hence, the time when they pass each other is:

t = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2gh}} = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}

b) When they are passing the speed of each one is:

For ball 1:

v_{f_{1}} = - gt = -g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = - 0.71\sqrt{gh}

The minus sign is because ball 1 is going down.

For ball 2:

v_{f_{2}} = v_{0_{2}} - gt = \sqrt{2gh} - g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = (\sqrt{1} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})*\sqrt{gh} = 0.41\sqrt{gh}

Therefore, taking the magnitude of ball 1 we can see that it has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height of the ball is:

For ball 1:

y_{1} = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = h - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h

For ball 2:

y_{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = \sqrt{2gh}*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h

Then, when they are passing the height is the same for both = 3h/4.

I hope it helps you!

in baseball, a pitcher can accelerate 0.15kg ball from rest to 98 mi/hr in a distance of 1.7m. (a) What is the average force exe
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

F=84.68 N

Required force increases

Explanation:

By the equation

v^{2}=u^{2} +2as\\ 98^{2}*1609.344^{2}/(60*60)^{2}=0+2*a*1.7\\a = 98^{2}*1609.344^{2}/((60*60)^{2}*2*1.7)\\a = 564.50m/s^{2} \\

By newton's second law :

F=ma\\F=0.15*564.50  \\F=84.68 N

When the mass increased the force increases as the equation.

F=ma
