You are lost at night in a large, open field. Your GPS tells you that you are 122.0 m from your truck, in a direction 58.0o east

of south. You walk 72.0 m due west along a ditch. How much farther, and in what direction, must you walk to reach your truck?

Answer:

The person is 187[m] farther and 70° south to east.

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by drawing a sketch of the location of the person and the truck, then we will draw the displacement vectors and finally the length of the vector and the direction of the vector will be measured in order to give the correct indication of where the person will have to move.

First we establish an origin of a coordinate system.

We can see in the attached schema that the red vector is the displacement vector from the last point to where the truck is located.

The length of the vector is 187 [m], and the direction is 70 degrees south to East.

Answer:

a)  f_{e} = 3,375 cm , b)  f₀ = 77.625 cm

Explanation:

The magnification of a telescope is, to see at the far point of vision (infinity image)

        m = - f₀ /  f_{e}

The length of the tube is

        L = f₀ + f_{e}

a) The focal length of the eyepiece

       L = - m  f_{e} +  f_{e}

       L = f_{e} (1-m)

        f_{e} = L / (1-m)

Let's calculate

        f_{e} = 81.0 / (1 - (-23.0)

        f_{e} = 3,375 cm

b) the focal length of the target

       f₀ = -m  f_{e}

       f₀ = 23 (3.68)

       f₀ = 77.625 cm

A particle is moving with (SHM) of period 8.0s and amplitude5.0m
nadezda [96]

Answer:

velocity(x)=15\,\frac{\pi}{4}\,cos(\frac{\pi}{4}x)

Max speed = \frac{15\, \pi}{4} \,\, \frac{m}{s}

Max acceleration = \frac{15\,\pi^2}{16} \,\,\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Given the description of period and amplitude, the SHM could be described by:

f(x)=5\,sin(\frac{\pi}{4}x)

and its angular velocity can be calculated doing the derivative:

f(x)=5\, \,sin(\frac{\pi}{4}x)\\f'(x)=5\,\frac{\pi}{4}\,cos(\frac{\pi}{4}x)

And therefore, the tangential velocity is calculated by multiplying this expression times the radius of the movement (3 m):

velocity(x)=15\,\frac{\pi}{4}\,cos(\frac{\pi}{4}x)  and is given in m/s.

Then the maximum speed is obtained when the cosine function becomes "1", and that gives:

Max speed = \frac{15\, \pi}{4} \,\, \frac{m}{s}

The acceleration is found from the derivative of the velocity expression, and therefore given by:

acceleraton(x)=-15\,\frac{\pi^2}{16}\,sin(\frac{\pi}{4}x)

and the maximum of the function will be obtained when the sine expression becomes "-1", which will render:

Max acceleration = \frac{15\,\pi^2}{16} \,\,\frac{m}{s^2}
