Answer:

The distance covered is 40 m and the displacement is 31,6m.

Explanation:

The distance covered is the sum of the two distances (10+30). The displacement is equal to the distance of the hipotenusa of the triangle that the two distances (10 m to north and 30m to east) create. Using the Pythagoras theorem the displacent is equal to the Square root of (30^2 +10^2) .

A bald eagle is flying to the left with a speed of 34 meters

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

the speed after 3 seconds is 10 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the speed is shown below:

As we know that

V = U + at

Here,

U = 34 m/s

a = - 8 m/s²

t = 3 Sec

V = velocity after 3 sec

V = 34 + (-8)3

= 34 - 24

V = 10 m/s

Hence, the speed after 3 seconds is 10 m/s

A lacrosse ball that is thrown straight upwards reaches a maximum height of 4.5 m. At what initial velocity was it thrown? (note

shtirl [24]

Answer:

The initial velocity was 9.39 m/s

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

The ball is thrown straight upward with initial velocity u

The ball reaches a maximum height of 4.5 m

At the maximum height velocity v = 0

The acceleration of gravity is -9.8 m/s²

We need to find the initial velocity

The best rule to find the initial velocity is v² = u² + 2ah, where v is

the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration of

gravity and h is the height

⇒ v = 0 , h = 4.5 m , a = -9.8 m/s²

⇒ 0 = u² + 2(-9.8)(4.5)

⇒ 0 = u² - 88.2

Add 88.2 to both sides

⇒ 88.2 = u²

Take square root for both sides

⇒ u = 9.39 m/s

The initial velocity was 9.39 m/s

To solve this problem we will use the relationship given between the centripetal Force and the Force caused by the weight, with respect to the horizontal and vertical components of the total tension given.

The tension in the vertical plane will be equivalent to the centripetal force therefore

$Tsin\theta= \frac{mv^2}{r}$
