The route followed by a hiker consists of three displacement vectors A with arrow, B with arrow, and C with arrow. Vector A with

arrow is along a measured trail and is 1550 m in a direction 25.0° north of east. Vector B with arrow is not along a measured trail, but the hiker uses a compass and knows that the direction is 41.0° east of south. Similarly, the direction of vector vector C is 20.0° north of west. The hiker ends up back where she started, so the resultant displacement is zero, or A with arrow + B with arrow + C with arrow = 0. Find the magnitudes of vector B with arrow and vector C with arrow.

Answer:

D_{B}=1173.98m\\D_{C}=675.29m

Explanation:

If we express all of the cordinates in their rectangular form we get:

A = (1404.77 , 655.06) m

B = A + ( -D_{B} *sin(41) , -D_{B} * cos(41) )

C = A + B + ( -D_{C} *cos(20) , D_{C} * sin(20) )

Since we need C to be (0,0) we stablish that:

C = (0,0) = A + B + ( -D_{C} *cos(20) , D_{C} * sin(20) )

That way we make an equation system from both X and Y coordinates:

A_{x} + B_{x} + C_{x} = 0

A_{y} + B_{y} + C_{y} = 0

Replacing values:

1404.77 - D_{B}*sin(41) - D_{C}*cos(20) = 0

655.06 - D_{B}*cos(41) + D_{C}*sin(20) = 0

With this system we can solve for both Db and Dc and get the answers to the question:

D_{B}=1173.98m

D_{C}=675.29m

Why were quasars and active galaxies not initially recognized as being “special” in some way?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

In the past, astronomers look into the sky and the universe as a whole with an idea that it is a place where stars are born, transition through their life stages and ultimately die and this is because they couldnt differentiate between stars, quasars and active galaxies because with advanced equipment, they all look similar but as they technological ages arrived, they were able see that they are not the same.
