Answer:
5N westward, acting on the student
Explanation:
(a) Differentiate the position vector to get the velocity vector:
<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = (3.00 m/s) <em>t</em> <em>i</em> - (4.00 m/s²) <em>t</em>² <em>j</em> + (2.00 m) <em>k</em>
<em>v</em><em>(t)</em> = d<em>r</em>/d<em>t</em> = (3.00 m/s) <em>i</em> - (8.00 m/s²) <em>t</em> <em>j</em>
<em></em>
(b) The velocity at <em>t</em> = 2.00 s is
<em>v</em> (2.00 s) = (3.00 m/s) <em>i</em> - (16.0 m/s) <em>j</em>
<em></em>
(c) Compute the electron's position at <em>t</em> = 2.00 s:
<em>r</em> (2.00 s) = (6.00 m) <em>i</em> - (16.0 m) <em>j</em> + (2.00 m) <em>k</em>
The electron's distance from the origin at <em>t</em> = 2.00 is the magnitude of this vector:
||<em>r</em> (2.00 s)|| = √((6.00 m)² + (-16.0 m)² + (2.00 m)²) = 2 √74 m ≈ 17.2 m
(d) In the <em>x</em>-<em>y</em> plane, the velocity vector at <em>t</em> = 2.00 s makes an angle <em>θ</em> with the positive <em>x</em>-axis such that
tan(<em>θ</em>) = (-16.0 m/s) / (3.00 m/s) ==> <em>θ</em> ≈ -79.4º
or an angle of about 360º + <em>θ</em> ≈ 281º in the counter-clockwise direction.
Answer:
Explanation:
A number can be written in the form of :
Where
m is the real number
n is any integer
In this case, the average distance from the Sun to the Earth is given,
d = 150000000000 meters
There are 10 zeroes in this number. We need to write this number in scientific notation. It is given by :
So, the average distance from the Sun to the Earth is . Hence, this is the required solution.
