Answer:
a. The horizontal component of acceleration a₁ = 0.68 m/s²
The vertical component of acceleration a₂ = -0.11 m/s²
b. -9.19° = 350.81° from the the positive x-axis
Explanation:
The initial velocity v₁ of the fish is v₁ = 4.00i + 1.00j m/s. Its final velocity after accelerating for t = 19.0 s is v₂ = 17.0i - 1.00j m/s
a. The acceleration a = (v₂ - v₁)/t = [17.0i - 1.00j - (4.00i + 1.00j)]/19 = [(17.0 -4.0)i - (-1.0 -1.0)j]/19 = (13.0i - 2.0j)/19 = 0.68i - 0.11j m/s²
The horizontal component of acceleration a₁ = 0.68 m/s²
The vertical component of acceleration a₂ = -0.11 m/s²
b. The direction of the acceleration relative to the unit vector i,
tanθ = a₂/a₁ = -0.11/0.68 = -0.1618
θ = tan⁻¹(-0.1618) = -9.19° ⇒ 360 + (-9.19) = 350.81° from the the positive x-axis
The easiest way I know to explain it is this:
-- Take a flashlight and a ball into a dark room.
-- Turn on the flashlight and point it at the ball.
-- Half of the ball is lighted up by the flashlight, and the other half is dark.
-- There is no way you can turn or twist the ball to make more or less
than 50% of it lighted up and more or less than 50% of it dark.
<em>Everything</em> in the solar system ... as long as it's shaped like a ball ... is
half illuminated by the sun and half dark.
The maximum force of static friction is the product of normal force (P) and the coefficient of static friction (c). In a flat surface, normal force is equal to the weight (W) of the body.
P = W = mass x acceleration due to gravity
P = (0.3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 2.94 kg m/s² = 2.94 N
Solving for the static friction force (F),
F = P x c
F = (2.94 N) x 0.6 = 1.794 N
Therefore, the maximum force of static friction is 1.794 N.
Good Morning, how are you?
Your answer is C. The moon orbits and rotates the same, so we NEVER see the far side of the moon from earth :)
Have a great day :)
