The answer is 17 m because you have to add the 15 m and the 8 m together to get the answer so it will be like this 17x17 = 15x15 + 8x8 got it?

The magnitude of a vector with components (15 m , 8 m) is 17 m

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Vector is a quantity that has a magnitude and direction.

A vector in a cartesian coordinate is represented by an arrow in which the slope of the arrow shows the direction of the vector and the length of the arrow shows the magnitude of the vector.

A position vector of a point is a vector drawn from the base point of the coordinates O (0,0) to that point.

The addition of two vectors can be done in the following ways:

\overrightarrow {AB} + \overrightarrow {BC} = \overrightarrow {AC}

A negative vector is a vector with the same magnitude but in opposite direction.

\overrightarrow {AB} = -\overrightarrow {BA}

Let's tackle the problem!

If there is a vector with components x and y, then how to find the size of a vector is as follows:

Magnitude of A Vector = \large {\boxed {\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}} }

The magnitude of a vector with components (15 m , 8 m) is :

\sqrt{15^2 + 8 ^2} = \sqrt{225 + 64} = \sqrt{289} = 17 ~ m

A 392 N wheel comes off a moving truck and rolls without slipping along a highway. At the bottom of a hill it is rotating at 24
alex41 [277]

Answer:

h=12.41m

Explanation:

N=392

r=0.6m

w=24 rad/s

I=0.8*m*r^{2}

So the weight of the wheel is the force N divide on the gravity and also can find momentum of inertia to determine the kinetic energy at motion

N=m*g\\m=\frac{N}{g}\\m=\frac{392N}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}

m=40kg

moment of inertia

M_{I}=0.8*40.0kg*(0.6m} )^{2}\\M_{I}=11.5 kg*m^{2}

Kinetic energy of the rotation motion

K_{r}=\frac{1}{2}*I*W^{2}\\K_{r}=\frac{1}{2}*11.52kg*m^{2}*(24\frac{rad}{s})^{2}\\K_{r}=3317.76J

Kinetic energy translational

K_{t}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}\\v=w*r\\v=24rad/s*0.6m=14.4 \frac{m}{s}\\K_{t}=\frac{1}{2}*40kg*(14.4\frac{m}{s})^{2}\\K_{t}=4147.2J

Total kinetic energy  

K=3317.79J+4147.2J\\K=7464.99J

Now the work done by the friction is acting at the motion so the kinetic energy and the work of motion give the potential work so there we can find height

K-W=E_{p}\\7464.99-2600J=m*g*h\\4864.99J=m*g*h\\h=\frac{4864.99J}{m*g}\\h=\frac{4864.99J}{392N}\\h=12.41m

Suppose a 48-N sled is resting on packed snow. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10. If a person weighing 660 N sits on t
Annette [7]

Assume the snow is uniform, and horizontal.

Given:

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.10 = muK

weight of sled = 48 N

weight of rider = 660 N

normal force on of sled with rider = 48+660 N = 708 N = N

Force required to maintain a uniform speed

= coefficient of kinetic friction * normal force

= muK * N

= 0.10 * 708 N

=70.8 N


Note: it takes more than 70.8 N to start the sled in motion, because static friction is in general greater than kinetic friction.

If you jog at a speed of 1.5m/s for 20 seconds how far di you travel
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer: 30m

Explanation:

Given:

Speed: 1.5m/s

Time: 20 seconds

Distance = speed × time

Distance = 1.5 × 20

= 30m

Therefore you will travel 30m

a care starting from rest has an acceleration 0.3 m/s square, calculate the velocity and distance travelled by this car after 2
Anna [14]

Answer:

Final velocity (v) = 36 m/s

Distance traveled (s) = 2,160 m

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0

Acceleration (a) = 0.3 m/s

Time travel (t) = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Find:

Final velocity (v) = ?

Distance traveled (s) = ?

Computation:

v = u + at

v = 0 + 0.3(120)

v = 0.3(120)

v = 36 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 36 m/s

Distance traveled (s) = ut + (1/2)at²

Distance traveled (s) = (0.5)(0.3 × 120 × 120)

Distance traveled (s) = 2,160 m
