If A = (6i-8j) units, B = (-8i-3j) units, and C = (26i-19j) units, determine a and b

Physics
1 answer:
-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

given equation

aA + bB + C = 0

Putting the given values

a(6i-8j) +b (-8i-3j) +(26i-19j) = 0

i ( 6a - 8b ) - j ( 8a + 3 b ) = - 26 i + 19 j

comparing the coefficients of i and j

6a - 8b = -26

8a + 3b = -19.

multiplying first equation by 4 and second equation by 3  

24a - 32 b = - 104

24a + 9b = -57

9b + 32b = -57 + 104

41 b = 47

b = 1.41

6 a - 8 x 1.41 = -26

6a = -14.72

a = - 2.45

A juggler throws a ball straight up into the air. The ball remains in the air for a time (t) before it lands back in the juggler
natka813 [3]

Answer:

9.8 m/s^2, downward

Explanation:

There is only one force acting on the ball during its motion: the force of gravity, which is given by

F=mg

where

m is the mass of the ball

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)

According to Newton's second law,

F=ma

where F is the net force on the object and a is its acceleration. Rearranging for a,

a=\frac{F}{m}

As we said, the only force acting on the ball is gravity, so F = mg and the acceleration of the ball is:

a=\frac{mg}{m}=g

Therefore, the ball has a constant acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2 downward for the entire motion.

dam is used to block the passage of a river and to generate electricity. Approximately 58.4 x 103 kg of water falls each second
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

8.049 MW

Explanation:

The expression for gravitational potential energy is given as

Ep = mgh............. Equation 1

Ep = gravitational potential energy, m = mass of water, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 58.4×10³ kg, h = 20.1 m, g = 9.81 m/s²

Substitute into equation 1

Ep =  58.4×10³(20.1)(9.81)

Ep = 1.6098×10⁷ J.

If one half the gravitational potential energy of the water were converted to electrical energy

Electrical energy = Ep/2

Electrical energy = (1.6098×10⁷)/2

Electrical energy = 8.049×10⁶ J

In one seconds,

The power generated = 8.049×10⁶ W

Power generated = 8.049 MW

A wire loop of radius 0.37 m lies so that an external magnetic field of magnitude 0.35 T is perpendicular to the loop. The field
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

168.57 mV

Explanation:

Initial magnetic flux = BA , B magnetic field and A is area of loop

= .35 x 3.14 x .37²

= .15 Weber

Final magnetic flux

= - .2 x 3.14 x .37²

= -  .086 Weber

change in flux

.15 +  .086

= .236 Weber

rate of change of flux

= .236 / 1.4

= .16857 V

= 168.57 mV

What two factors are a part of thermohaline circulation
Margarita [4]

Answer:

These deep-ocean currents are driven by differences in the water's density, which is controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). This process is known as thermohaline circulation.
