Answer:

magnitude of A − B =  15.81 km

Explanation:

Vector A points in the negative y-direction and has a magnitude of 5 km. Vector B points in the positive x-direction and has a  magnitude of 15 km.

According to Cartesian coordinate system, the resultant will start either from tail of A and ends at head of B and vice-versa.

A(0,-5)

B(15,0)

A - B = (-15 i - 5 j )

Magnitude of the vector is given by

|A - B| = \sqrt{(-15)^{2}+(-5)^{2}}

|A - B| = \sqrt{250}

|A - B| = 15.81 km

Answer:

Q = - 256 X 10⁻⁷ C .

Explanation:

Electric field due to a charge Q at a distance d from the center is given by the expression

E = k Q /d² Where k is a constant and it is equal to 9 x 10⁹

Put the given value in the equation

9 x 10² = \frac{9\times10^9\times Q}{(14+2)^2\times10^{-4}}

Q = \frac{9\times16^2\times10^{-2}}{9\times10^9}

Q = - 256 X 10⁻⁷ C .

It will be negative in nature as the field is directed towards the center.

A 2.1 ✕ 103-kg car starts from rest at the top of a 5.9-m-long driveway that is inclined at 19° with the horizontal. If an avera
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

3.9 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of car,m=2.1\times 10^3 kg

Initial velocity,u=0

Distance,s=5.9 m

\theta=19^{\circ}

Average friction force,f=4.0\times 10^3 N

We have to find the speed of the car at the bottom of the driveway.

Net force,F_{net}=mgsin\theta-f=2.1\times 10^3\times 9.8sin19-4.0\times 10^3

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Acceleration,a=\frac{F_{net}}{m}=\frac{2.1\times 10^3\times 9.8sin19-4.0\times 10^3}{2.1\times 10^3}

v=\sqrt{2as}

v=\sqrt{2\times \frac{2.1\times 10^3\times 9.8sin19-4.0\times 10^3}{2.1\times 10^3}\times 5.9}

v=3.9 m/s
