Answer:

34.5 m at 55.5 degrees above the positive x-axis

Explanation:

Resolving a vector means finding its components along two perpendicular axis: most commonly, they are chosen as the x and y axis.

In this problem, we have a vector whose components are:

x -component: 19.5 m

y- component: 28.4 m

The two components are perpendicular to each other: this means that we can find the magnitude of the vector by using the Pythagorean theorem

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{19.5^2+28.4^2}=34.5 m

The direction, instead, can be found by using the following formula:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{v_y}{v_x})=tan^{-1} (\frac{28.4}{19.5})=55.5^{\circ}

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The beta decay takes place.

Explanation:

The reaction of radioactivity of carbon 14 to nitrogen 14 is

There is a beta decay.  

The reaction is

C_{6}^{14}\rightarrow N_{7}^{14}+\beta _{-1}^{0}+ energy

Here some energy is released in form of neutrino.

A 75 kg Spider Man running at 3.0 m/s jumps onto a trash can lid that has a mass of 10kg and that is already moving in the same
QveST [7]
In order to find the final velocity of the skier and the trash can lid, we may apply the principle of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum of a system remains constant. Mathematically, in this case:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₃v₃
Where m₃ and v₃ are the combined mass and velocity.

75*3 + 10*2 = (75 + 10)*v₃
v₃ = 2.88 m/s

The final velocity is 2.88 m/s

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,

she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have

x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river

x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South

sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2

She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South
