A river flows due south at 5 mi/h. A swimmer attempting to cross the river heads due east swimming at 3 mi/h relative to the wat
er. Find the true velocity of the swimmer as a vector. (Assume that the i vector points east, and the j vector points north.)
1 answer:
Answer:
<u>velocity of swimmer relative to ground = 3 i -5 j</u>
Explanation:
- To cross a river the swimmer swims relative to river in perpendicular direction.
Velocity of river = -5 j (south)
Velocity of swimmer relative to river = 3 i(north)
So
<h2>Velocity of swimmer relative to ground = Velocity of swimmer relative to river + Velocity of river</h2>Velocity of swimmer relative to ground = 3 i -5 j
So magnitude of total velocity is =

Answer:
Explanation:
means initial angular velocity, which is 0 rev/min
means final angular velocity, which is
t means time t= 3.20 s
one revolution is equivalent to 2πrad so the final angular velocity is:
= (2π/60) *2.513*10^{4} rad/s
= 2628.5 rad/s
so the angular acceleration, α will be:
α = 2628.5 rad/s / 3.20 s
so the rotational motion about a fixed axis is:
+ 2αΔTita where ΔTita is the angle in radians
so now find the ΔTita the subject of the formula
ΔTita =
