A) Vector A

The x-component of a vector can be found by using the formula

v_x = v cos \theta

where

v is the magnitude of the vector

\theta is the angle between the x-axis and the direction of the vector

- Vector A has a magnitude of 50 units along the positive x-direction, so \theta_A = 0^{\circ}. So its x-component is

A_x = A cos \theta_A = (50) cos 0^{\circ}=50

- Vector B has a magnitude of 120 units and the direction is \theta_B = -70^{\circ} (negative since it is below the x-axis), so the x-component is

B_x = B cos \theta_B = (120) cos (-70^{\circ})=41

So, vector A has the greater x component.

B) Vector B

Instead, the y-component of a vector can be found by using the formula

v_y = v sin \theta

Here we have

- Vector B has a magnitude of 50 units along the positive x-direction, so \theta_A = 0^{\circ}. So its y-component is

A_y = A sin \theta_A = (50) sin 0^{\circ}=0

- Vector B has a magnitude of 120 units and the direction is \theta_B = -70^{\circ}, so the y-component is

B_y = B sin \theta_B = (120) sin (-70^{\circ})=-112.7

where the negative sign means the direction is along negative y:

So, vector B has the greater y component.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

The maximum emf induced in the ring

= (2.882 × 10⁻⁷) V

Explanation:

According to the law of electromagnetic induction, the emf induced in the ring is given by

E = N BA w sin wt

The maximum emf induced is

E = N BA w

B = 30.5 μT = (30.5 × 10⁻⁶) T

A = (πD²/4)

D = 1.75 cm = 0.0175 m

A = (π×0.0175²/4) = 0.000240625 m²

Nw = 2π × 6.25 = 39.29 rad/s

E = 30.5 × 10⁻⁶ × 0.000240625 × 39.29

E = (2.882 × 10⁻⁷) V

Hope this Helps!!!

How does Mercury's close proximity to the sun and thin atmosphere affect its ability to maintain liquid water
alekssr [168]

Answer

A thin atmosphere does not supply much oxygen, and the heat from the sun would evaporate it, because mercury is close to the sun.

Suppose that the velocity (in meters per second) of a sky diver falling near the Earth's surface is given by the following expon
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

4.7 s

Explanation:

The complete question is presented in the attached image to this solution.

v(t) = 61 - 61e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ

At what time will v(t) = 43 m/s?

We just substitute 43 m/s into the equation for the velocity of the diver and solve for t.

43 = 61 - 61e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ

- 61e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ = 43 - 61 = -18

e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ = (18/61) = 0.2951

In e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ = In 0.2951 = -1.2205

-0.26t = -1.2205

t = (1.2205/0.26) = 4.694 s = 4.7 s to the nearest tenth.

Hope this Helps!!!
