d 15.6 m west. What is the resultant displacement? (take + x direction to be east). Find magnitud? Find direction?

First, we resolve the northeast displacement into its north and east components. The angle from the positive x-axis of a northeast displacement is 45 degrees. Thus:
North = 8.46sin(45) = 5.98 m
East = 8.46cos(45) = 5.98 m

North displacement = 5.98 - 3.6 = 2.38 m
West displacement = 15.6 - 5.98 = 9.62

Magnitude = √(2.38² + 9.62²)
Magnitude = 9.91 m

Direction:
tan∅ = 2.38 / 9.62
∅ = 13.9° north from east

The magnitude of resultant displacement of the dog is \boxed{9.91\,{\text{m}}}  and the direction of resultant displacement is \boxed{13.89^\circ }  north of west.

Further Explanation:

The displacement of the dog is as shown in the figure attached below. The dog moves from the point A\to B\to C\to D .

As the dog moves from A to B, it is a straight line and it is displaced by a distance of 3.6\,{\text{m}}  from its initial position. After that, the dog moves by a distance of 8.46\,{\text{m}}  in the north-east direction.

The resultant displacement of the dog from point B to point C in the horizontal direction is:

\begin{aligned}B{C_x}&=8.46\cos45^\circ\\&=5.98\,{\text{m}}\\\end{aligned}

The displacement from B to C in vertical direction is:

\begin{aligned}B{C_y}&=8.46\sin45^\circ\\&=5.98\,{\text{m}}\\\end{aligned}

Then after this displacement, the dog moves from point C to point D in the horizontal direction.

So the final displacement of the dog in the horizontal direction is:

\begin{aligned}{d_x}&=15.6-5.98\\&=9.62\,{\text{m}}\\\end{aligned}

Displacement of the dog in the vertical direction is:

\begin{aligned}{d_y}&=5.98-3.6\\&=2.38\,{\text{m}}\\\end{aligned}

Thus, the magnitude of total displacement of the dog from initial position is:

\begin{aligned}AD&=\sqrt{{{\left({9.62}\right)}^2}+{{\left({2.38}\right)}^2}}\\&=\sqrt{98.21}\\&=9.91\,{\text{m}}\\\end{aligned}

The direction of final displacement of the dog is:

\begin{aligned}\theta&={\tan ^{-1}}\left({\frac{{{d_y}}}{{{d_x}}}}\right)\\&={\tan^{-1}}\left({\frac{{2.38}}{{9.62}}}\right)\\&=13.89^\circ\,{\text{north}}\,{\text{of}}\,{\text{west}}\\\end{aligned}

Thus, the magnitude of resultant displacement of the dog is \boxed{9.91\,{\text{m}}}  and the direction of resultant displacement is \boxed{13.89^\circ }  north of west.

A car has an acceleration of 1.5 m/s2. A net force of 2100 N is acting on the car. What is the mass of the car?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Given

acceleration (a) =1.5ms2

Force(F) =2100N

R. t. c mass (m) =?

Form

F=ma(divided by m both sides)

m=F/a

m=2100/105

m=1400kg

mass of car =1400kg

A dentist’s drill starts from rest. After 4.28 s of constant angular acceleration it turns at a rate of 28940 rev/min. Find the
mylen [45]

Answer:

Angular acceleration, is 708.07\ rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the drill, \omega_i=0

After 4.28 s of constant angular acceleration it turns at a rate of 28940 rev/min, final angular speed, \omega_f=28940\ rev/min=3030.58\ rad/s

We need to find the drill’s angular acceleration. It is given by the rate of change of angular velocity.

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega_f}{t}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{3030.58\ rad/s}{4.28\ s}\\\\\alpha =708.07\ rad/s^2

So, the drill's angular acceleration is 708.07\ rad/s^2.

A 1300-kg car initially has a velocity of 22.2 m/s due south. It brakes to a stop over a 180 m distance.
Vaselesa [24]
The acceleration of the object which moves from an initial step to a full halt given the distance traveled can be calculated through the equation,
                                     d = v² / 2a
where d is distance, v is the velocity, and a is acceleration
Substituting the known values,
                                     180 = (22.2 m/s)² / 2(a)
The value of a is equal to 1.369 m/s²
The force needed for the object to be stopped is equal to the product of the mass and the acceleration.
                                      F = (1300 kg)(1.369 m/s²) 
                                            F = 1779.7 N

The function h(t) = –16t2 + 96t + 6 represents an object projected into the air from a cannon. The maximum height reached by the
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

3 seconds

Explanation:

Since h(t) represents the height and t represents the time, we can set the equation equal to 150 to find t.

-16t^2+96t+6=150

Subtract 150 from both sides to set the equation equal to 0, to find the solutions.

-16t^2+96t-144=0

Factor out -16, because all of the terms are divisible by it.

-16(t^2+6t+9)=0

Now we can focus on the terms inside the parenthesis and factor it again.

t^2-6t+9=0

We need to find two value that can be multiplied to get 9 and added to get -6.

-3 and -3 works.

Thus, we get (x-3)(x-3).

Now solve for 0.

x-3=0

x=3

The object reaches its maximum height after 3 seconds.

1. Calcular la masa de mercurio que pasó de 30 °C hasta 120 °C y absorbió 4400 cal. Calor específico del
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Masa, m = 0.088 kg

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Temperatura inicial = 30°C

Temperatura final = 120°C

Capacidad calorífica específica = 138J/kg.K

Calor absorbido, Q = 4400 cal.

Para encontrar la masa;

La capacidad calorífica viene dada por la fórmula;

Q = mct

Dónde;

Q representa la capacidad calorífica o la cantidad de calor.

m representa la masa de un objeto.

c representa la capacidad calorífica específica del agua.

dt representa el cambio de temperatura.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 120 - 30

dt = 90°C to kelvin = 273 + 90 = 363K

Sustituyendo en la fórmula, tenemos;

4400 = m*138*363

4400 = 50094m

m = \frac {4400}{50094}

Masa, m = 0.088 kg
