Answer:

38.5° north of east

Explanation:

Directly northwest is 135° from east.  If we say east is +x and north is +y, then the components of the acceleration are:

ax = 2.88 cos 135° ≈ -2.036 m/s²

ay = 2.88 sin 135° ≈ 2.036 m/s²

And the initial velocity is:

v₀x = 115 m/s

v₀y = 0 m/s

After, 25.0 seconds, the final velocity components are:

vx = at + v₀x

vx = (-2.036)(25.0) + 115

vx ≈ 64.1 m/s

vy = at + v₀y

vy = (2.036)(25.0) + 0

vy ≈ 50.9 m/s

The plane's direction is:

θ = atan(vy / vx)

θ = atan(50.9 / 64.1)

θ ≈ 38.5°

The direction of the plane's velocity is approximately 38.5° north of east.

You are an industrial engineer with a shipping company. As part of the package- handling system, a small box with mass 1.60 kg i
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a) V = 0.82m/s

b) Vmax = 0.985 m/s

Explanation:

By conservation of energy we know that:

Eo = Ef    \frac{m*V^{2}}{2}-\frac{K*Xmax^{2}}{2}=-Ff*Xmax

Solving for V we get:

V = 0.82 m/s

To find the maximum speed we will do the same to an intermediate point where the compression is X and the distance for the work donde by frictions is given by (Xmax - X) = (0.28m - X):

\frac{m*Vmax^{2}}{2}+\frac{K*X^{2}}{2}-\frac{K*Xmax^{2}}{2}=-Ff*(Xmax-X)

Then we have to solve for V, derive and equal zero in order to find position X. After solving the derivative we get:

X = 0.1m    Replacing this value into the equation for Vmax:

Vmax = 0.985m/s

Is this true or false the kinetic energy of a freely falling object decreases as it begins to fall
Naddika [18.5K]
The kinetic energy of an object is the energy of the object as it moves. It has more kinetic energy the faster it moves. Because a falling object is increasing in speed, it would also increase in kinetic energy. Hope this helps! :)

Motion equation of object is
Ganezh [65]

Take the derivative to find the velocity of the object:

v=\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=-12+6t

The object stops when v=0:

-12+6t=0\implies6t=12\implies t=2

so the answer is E.
