Explanation:
When we multiply a vector by a scalar, we have to multiply each component of the vector by the scalar number. In this case, we have
vector: (-3,-2)
Scalar: -6
so the vector multiplied by the scalar will have components
The magnitude is given by Pythagorean's theorem:
and the direction is given by the arctan of the ratio between the y-component and the x-component:
Answer:
D) 11 m/s
Explanation:
The problem asks us to calculate the velocity of the hot dog with respect to the observer stationary outside the train. This velocity is given by:
where
is the velocity of the train (towards right)
is the velocity of the man (towards right)
is the velocity of the hot-dog (towards left, so we put a negative sign)
Substituting the numbers into the equation, we find
and the positive sign means the velocity is toward right.
