Answer:

Explanation: Ok, first caracterize the two vectors that we know.

A = ax + ay = (12*cos(40°)*i + 12*sin(40°)*j) m

now, see that C is angled 20° from -x, -x is angled 180° counterclockwise from +x, so C is angled 200° counterclockwise from +x

C = cx + cy = (15*cos(200°)*i + 15*sin(200°)*j) m

where i and j refers to the versors associated to te x axis and the y axis respectively.

in a sum of vectors, we must decompose in components, so: ax + bx  = cx and ay + by = cy. From this two equations we can obtain B.

bx= (15*cos(200°) - 12*cos(40°)) m = -23.288 m

by = (15*sin(200°) - 12*sin(40°)) m = -12.843 m

Now with te value of both components of B, we proceed to see his magnitude an angle relative to +x.

Lets call a to the angle between -x and B, from trigonometry we know that tg(a) = by/bx, that means a = arctg(12.843/23.288) = 28.8°

So the total angle will be 180° + 28.8° = 208.8°.

For the magnitude of B, lets call it B', we can use the angle that we just obtained.

bx = B'*cos(208.8°) so B' = (-23.288 m)/cos(208.8°) =  26.58 m.

So the magnitude of B is 26.58 m.

Determine the volume displaced and then calculate the density of this 54 g sample of brass.
inessss [21]

Answer:

DETAILS IN THE QUESTION INSUFFICIENT TO ANSWER

Explanation:

Assuming the liquid to be water ,

the density d_{w} of water is : 1000kgm^{-3}=1gcm^{-3}

Buoyant force exerted by a liquid on an object with V_{imm} of it's volume immersed is :

F_{B}=V_{imm}*d_{l}*g

where ,

  • F_{B} is the buoyant force
  • d_{l} is the density of the liquid
  • g is the acceleration due to gravity

Thus at equilibrium:

m_{brass}*g=V_{imm}*d_{l}*g\\m_{brass}=V_{imm}*d_{l}\\54=V_{imm}*1\\V_{imm}=54cm^{3}

from these , we get the density of brass to be 1gcm^{-3}

which is not possible

A 6 kilogram block in outer space is moving at -100 m/s (to the left). It suddenly experiences three forces as shown below.
Alika [10]

Newton's second law and the kinematic relations allow to find the results for the questions about forces and the movement of the block are:

    B) the force applied to maintain the system is equilibrium is: F = 0.39 N with an angle of tea = 180º

    C) The maximum force is: F = 24 N

    D) The time to stop the block is: t = 25 s

 

Newton's second law establishes a relationship between the net force, the mass, and the acceleration of the body. In the special case that the acceleration is zero it is called the equilibrium condition.

B) They indicate a diagram of forces on the block, let's look for the components of the force that the block maintains with zero acceleration, in the attached we have a free-body diagram including the force applied to keep the system in equilibrium.

x-axis

      -10 + 12 sin 60 + Fₓ = 0

        Fₓ = 10- 12 sin 60 = -0.39 N

y-axis

       12 cos 60 - 6 + F_y = 0

        F_y = 6 - 12 cos 60 = 0 N

We can give the result of the force in two ways:

  • Form of coordinates F = -0.39 i ^ N
  • Form of module and angle.

Let's use Pythagoras' theorem to find the modulus.

       F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2 } \\F = \sqrt{0.39^2 +0^2}  

       F = 0.39N

We use trigonometry for the angle.

       tan \theta = \frac{F_y}{F_x}

       tan θ=  0º

The component of the force is negative therefore this angle is in the second quadrant, to measure the angle from the positive side of the x axis in a counterclockwise direction.

        θ = 180 + θ'

        θ = 180 + 0

        θ = 180º

C) if the three forces can be moved and the maximum force occurs when they are all linear.

          10+ 6 + 6 + F = 0

          F = -24 N

D) if we maintain this force and eliminate the other three, the block stops, let's look for its acceleration.

          a = \frac{F}{m}  

          a = \frac{24}{6}  

         a =  4 m / s²

The acceleration is in the opposite direction of the initial velocity of the block v₀ = -100 m / s

If we use kinematic relations.

        v = v₀ - a t

Final velocity when stopped is zero

         t = \frac{0-v_o}{a}

         t = 100/4

         t = 25 s

In conclusion using Newton's second law and the kinematics relations we can find the results for the questions about the forces and the motion of the block are:

    B) the force applied to maintain the system is equilibrium is: F = 0.39 N with an angle of tea = 180º

    C) The maximum force is: F = 24 N

    D) The time to stop the block is: t = 25 s

Through which one of the following mediums is the velocity of a sound wave the greatest?
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer: C. Steel

Explanation: When a sound wave travels through a solid body consisting

of an elastic material, the velocity of the wave is relatively

high. For instance, the velocity of a sound wave traveling

through steel (which is almost perfectly elastic) is about

5,060 meters per second. On the other hand, the velocity

of a sound wave traveling through an inelastic solid is

relatively low. So, for example, the velocity of a sound wave

traveling through lead (which is inelastic) is approximately

1,402 meters per second.
