Answer:

a) 24.33 m of distance.

b) 34.55° east of the south.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. The whole exercise is the following:

<em>"Ricardo and Jane are standing under a tree in the middle of a pasture. An argument ensues, and they walk away in different directions. Ricardo walks 28.0 m in a direction 60.0° west of north. Jane walks 12.0 m in a direction 30.0° south of west. They then stop and turn to face each other. </em>

<em>(a) What is the distance between them? </em>

<em>(b) In what direction should Ricardo walk to go directly toward Jane?</em><em>"</em>

Now that we know what we need to do in this question, let's head for every part of the problem.

<u>a) Distance between Ricardo and Jane</u>

In this case, we need to analyze the given data:

Ricardo (which we will call R) is 28 m from the starting point at 60° west of north, and Jane (J) is 12 m at 30° south of west. So the distance between them, will be the point where they both stop and face each other. This point can be seen in the image attached (See picture).

Let's call the distance between them as "D", to get the distance of D, according to the picture will be:

D = J - R   (1)

However, as they are facing in different angles and directions, we cannot do the difference of their values distance just like that. In order to do that, we need to calculate the components in the "x" and "y" axis of each vector. In that way, we can get the components of x and y of the Distance D, and then, the whole distance between them will be:

D = √Dx² + Dy²     (2)

So, let's get the components of x and y of R and J.

For Ricardo (R):

Rx = R sin60° = 28 sin60° = -24.25 m

Ry = R cos60° = 28 cos60° = 14 m

The sign "-" it's because R it's on the second quadrant, therefore in x, we'll have to add the negative.

For Jane (J):

Jx = J cos30° = 12 cos30° = -10.39 m

Jy = J sin30° = 12 sin30° = -6 m

Again, the negative is added because J is on the third quadrant.

Now that we have the components, let's calculate vector D using expression (1):

Dx = -10.39 - (-24.25) = 13.86 m

Dy = -6 - 14 = -20 m

Now, using expression (2) we can finally know the distance between Jane And Ricardo:

D = √(-20)² + (13.86)²

<h2>D = 24.33 m</h2>

This is the distance between Jane and Ricardo.

b) Direction of Ricardo walking to Jane

In this case, we already have the components of x and y of the distance between them, so, to know the direction:

Tanα = Dy/Dx

α = tan⁻¹ (Dy/Dx)

Replacing the values we have:

α = tan⁻¹ (-20/13.86)

α = 55.45°

Which should south of east or:

β = 90 - 55.45

<h2>β = 34.55°</h2>

Ricardo should walk 34.55° east of south

Hope this helps

A 140 kg load is attached to a crane, which moves the load vertically. Calculate the tension in the cable for the following case
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

A 140 kg load is attached to a crane, which moves the load vertically. Calculate the tension in the

cable for the following cases:

a. The load moves downward at a constant velocity

b. The load accelerates downward at a rate 0.4 m/s??

C. The load accelerates upward at a rate 0.4 m/s??

Solution:

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

a) Given that the mass of the crane (m) is 140 kg. If the load moves downward, the tension (T) is given by:

mg - T = ma

Since the load has a constant velocity, hence acceleration (a) = 0. Therefore:

mg - T = m(0)

mg - T = 0

T = mg

T = 140(10) = 1400 N

T = 1400 N

b)  If the load moves downward, the tension (T) is given by:

mg - T = ma

T = mg - ma = m(g - a)

T = 140(10 - 0.4) = 140(9.96) = 134.4

T = 134.4 N

c)  If the load moves upward, the tension (T) is given by:

T - mg = ma

T = ma + mg = m(a + g)

T = 140(0.4 + 10) = 140(10.4)

T = 145.6 N

2) To find the distance (s) if the load move from rest (u= 0) and accelerates for 20 seconds (t = 20). We use:

s = ut + (1/2)gt²

s = 0(20) + (1/2)(10)(20)²

s = 2000 m

The intensity of sound waves is linearly proportional to ?
Airida [17]

(1) The intensity of a sound wave is linearly proportional to the change in the pressure squared.

(2) You are able to hear sounds from farther away on a cool night because sound waves are refracted toward<u> </u><u>warmer air </u><u>near the ground.</u>

(3) When the trough of one wave collides at the same time & place of the crest of an identical wave, destructive interference occurs.

(4) The time taken for the heater to provide the energy is 300 secs.

(5) The total amount of heat provided to the ice sample is 7,980 cal.

(6) The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of water is 33,472 J.

<h3>Intensity of sound</h3>

The intensity of a sound wave is linearly proportional to the change in the pressure squared and inversely proportional to the density and the speed.

<h3>Refraction of sound waves</h3>

You are able to hear sounds from farther away on a cool night because sound waves are refracted toward warmer air near the ground.

<h3>Destructive inference</h3>

When the trough of one wave collides at the same time & place of the crest of an identical wave, destructive interference occurs.

<h3>Time taken for the heater to provide the energy</h3>

E = Power x Time

t = E/P

t = 60,000/200

t = 300 secs

<h3>Total amount of heat provided to the ice sample</h3>

Q = 79.8 cal/g x 100 g

Q = 7,980 cal

<h3>Amount of heat required to increase the temperature of water</h3>

Q = 0.1 kg x 4184 J/kgC x (100 - 20)

<em>When water vapor condense into liquid water, temperature = 100⁰C</em>

Q = 33,472 J

Thus, the intensity of a sound wave is linearly proportional to the change in the pressure squared.

  • You are able to hear sounds from farther away on a cool night because sound waves are refracted toward<u> </u><u>warmer air </u><u>near the ground.</u>
  • When the trough of one wave collides at the same time & place of the crest of an identical wave, destructive interference occurs.
  • The time taken for the heater to provide the energy is 300 secs.
  • The total amount of heat provided to the ice sample is 7,980 cal.
  • The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of water is 33,472 J.
