The components of a 15 meters per second velocity at an angle of 60 degrees above the horizontal are?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x-component of velocity: 7.5 m/s

y-component of velocity: 13 m/s

Explanation:

This problem is pure trigonometry. Assuming you know trig, there are only a couple of steps to solving this problem. First, split the velocity into components; recall that any vector not directed along an axis has x and y components. Then, remember that sinΘ = opposite/hypotenuse. Applying this to your scenario, you get sin60° = vy/15. Multiplying this out gives you vy=15sin60. Put this into a calculator (make sure it's set to degree mode because the angle in this problem is in degrees) and you should get 12.99, which you can round up to 13 m/s. This is the velocity in the y-direction.

The procedure to find the x-velocity is very similar, but instead of using sine, we will use the cosine of theta. Recall that cosΘ=adjacent/hypotenuse. Once again plugging this scenario's numbers into that, you end up with cos60 = vₓ/15. Multiplying this out gives you vₓ = 15cos60. Once again, plug this into your calculator. 7.5 m/s should be your answer. This is the velocity in the x-direction.

By the way, a quick way to find the components of a vector, whether it's velocity, force, or whatever else, is to use these functions. Generally, if the vector points somewhere that's not along an axis, you can use this rule. The x-component of the vector is equal to hypotenuse*cosΘ and the y-component of the vector is equal to hypotenuse*sinΘ.

A 2,300-kg truck is traveling down a highway at 32 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the truck?
kondor19780726 [428]

m = mass of the truck = 23 00 kg

v = speed of the truck down the highway = 32 m/s

K = kinetic energy of the truck = ?

kinetic energy of the truck down the highway is given as

K = (0.5) m v²

inserting the values

K = (0.5) (2300) (32)²

K = (0.5) (2300) (1024)

K = (1150) (1024)

K = 1177600 J

hence the kinetic energy of the truck comes out to be 1177600 J

In a large restaurant an average 60% customers ask for water with their meal. A random sample of 10 customers is selected. Find
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a)P(6)=0.25

b)p(x

c)p(x\geq3)=0.9878

d)\sigma=\sqrt{2.4}=1.5492

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Population percentage p_\%=\60%

Sample size n=10

Let x =customers ask for water

Let y =customers dose not ask for water with their meal  

Generally the equation for y is mathematically given by

y=1-p_\%\\y=1-0.60\\y=0.40

Generally the equation for pmf p(x) is mathematically given by

P(x)=10C_x (0..6)^x(0.4)^{10-x}

a)

Generally the probability that exactly 6 ask for water is mathematically given by

P(x)6=10C_6 (0..6)^6(0.4)^{10-6}

P(6)=0.25

b)

Generally the probability that  less than 9 ask for water with meal  is mathematically given by

p(xg)

p(x

p(x

p(x

c)

Generally the probability that  at least 3 ask for water with meal  is mathematically given by

p(x\geq3)=1-p(x

p(x\geq3)=1-[p(0)+p(1)+p(2)]

p(x\geq3)=1-[0.00001+0.0015+0.0106]

p(x\geq3)=1-[0.0122]

p(x\geq3)=0.9878

d)

Generally the mean and standard deviation of sample size is mathematically given by

Mean

\=x=np=10(0.6)=6

Standard deviation

v(x)=npq=10(0.6)(0.4)=2.4

\sigma=\sqrt{2.4}=1.5492
