A train moving at a constant speed on a surface inclined upward at 10.0° with the horizontal travels a distance of 400 meters in

5 seconds. Calculate the vertical velocity component of the train during this time period

If the velocity of the train is v=s/t, where s is the distance and t is time, then v=400/5=80m/s. To get the vertical component of the velocity we need to multiply the velocity v with a sin(α): Vv=v*sin(α), where Vv is the vertical component of the velocity and α is the angle with the horizontal. So:

Vv=80*sin(10)=80*0.1736=13.888 m/s. 

So the vertical component of the velocity of the train is Vv=13.888 m/s.

Calculate the amount of work done if you use a 100N force to push a 50kg box 5m across the kitchen floor.
irinina [24]
So if the formula for work is force times displacement times cosine(theta), you'd plug in the numbers

100x5 (since there's no angle in the problem, cosine(theta) isn't used

100x5 = 500

So the answer would be B.

Hope that helps!

A river flows due east with a speed of 3.00 m/s relative to earth. The river is 80.0 m wide. A woman starts at the southern bank
babymother [125]

Answer:

48 m

Explanation:

As she travels at the rate of 5m/s due north, the amount of time it would take for her to cross the 80m wide river would be

t = 80 / 5 = 16 seconds

This is also the time it takes for the river to push her to the east side at the rate of 3m/s. So after 16 seconds, she would reach the opposite point at a horizontal distance from her starting of

s = 16*3 = 48 m
