Answer:

a = 3.61[m/s^2]

Explanation:

To find this acceleration we must remember newton's second law which tells us that the total sum of forces is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

In this case we have:

F = m*a\\\\m=mass = 3.6[kg]\\F = force = 13[N]\\13 = 3.6*a\\a = 3.61[m/s^2]

Vectors A and B lie in the xy ‑plane. Vector A has a magnitude of 17.1 and is at an angle of 150.5∘ counterclockwise from the +x
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

A = -14.87 i ^ + 8.42 j ^ + 0 k ^

B = -25.41 i ^ -12.0 j ^ + 0 k ^

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use trigonometry by decomposing to vectors

vector A

module 17.1 with an angle of 150.5 counterclockwise.

         Sin 150.5 = A_{y} / A

         cos 150.5 = Ax / A

         A_{y} = A sin 150.5 = 17.1 sin 150.5

         Aₓ = A cos 1505 = 172 cos 150.5

         A_{y} = 8,420

         Aₓ = -14.870

the vector is

          A = -14.87 i ^ + 8.42 j ^ + 0 k ^

Vector B

         B_{y} = 28.1 sin 205.3

         Bₓ = 28.1 cos 205.3

         B_{y} = -12.009

          Bₓ = -25.405

the vector is

          B = -25.41 i ^ -12.0 j ^ + 0 k ^

Why are plants generally green?
e-lub [12.9K]

The correct answer is option D, "The pigment chlorophyll reflects green light waves"

The chloroplast with in the plants consists of chlorophyll (green colour pigment) which is highly absorbent to the long and short wavelengths such as red and blue wavelength of visible spectrum and reflects green wavelengths thereby producing green colour visualizations to the viewer. The two common chlorophyll usually found in the leaves are chlorophyll A and B. Chlorophyll A is majorly responsible for reflecting the green light

A football is kicked into the air from an initial height of 4 feet. The height, in feet, of the football above the ground is giv
kakasveta [241]

Answer: 0.5 seconds or 2.625 seconds

Explanation:

At t = 0, The ball is 4 ft above the ground.

The height of the football varies with time in the following way:

s(t) = -16 t² + 50 t + 4

we need to find the time in which the height would of the football would be 25 ft:

⇒25 = -16 t² + 50 t + 4

we need to solve the quadratic equation:

⇒ 16 t² - 50 t + 21 = 0

t = \frac{50 \pm \sqrt{50^2-4\times 16\times 21}}{2\times16}

⇒ t = 0.5 s or 2.625 s

Therefore, at t = 0.5 s or 2.625 s, the football would be 25 ft above the ground.
