Sometimes, I have to take my cat, Gigi, in the car. She doesn’t like this, and tends to hide under the couch when she knows she

has to go. This means I have to drag her out. Assuming she is using her claws to try and stop me, identify the forces acting on Gigi, and draw a free body diagram for the situation. Make sure you label each force and identify where it’s coming from.

Answer:

F - fr = ma ,    N - W = 0

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked to identify the forces that act on the jack, for this we will use Newton's second law

On the x axis

We have two forces: the friction and the force of the girl who pulls the cat

           F - fr = ma

On the y axis

There are two forces: normal and weight

         N - W = 0

A diagram of these forces can be seen in the attachment

1.)A tank travels at a rate of 10.0 km/hr for 12.00 minutes, then at 15.0 km/hr for 8.00
rosijanka [135]

12.00 min = 0.2 hr

8.00 min = 0.15 hr

Total distance:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) + (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 8.25 km

Average speed:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr + 20.0 km/hr) / 3

= 15 km/hr

Change in position:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) - (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 0.25 km

Average velocity:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr - 20.0 km/hr) / 3

≈ 1.67 m/s

Find the unit vector in the direction of vector B=4i+2j-5k​
solmaris [256]

Answer:

\frac{4}{\sqrt{45} } i\,+\frac{2}{\sqrt{45} } j-\frac{5}{\sqrt{45} } k

Explanation:

for the unit vector, we need to divide the given vector by its norm, because it should be in the SAME direction as the original vector, but of magnitude "1".

We notice that the norm of the given vector is:

\sqrt{4^2+2^2+(-5)^2} =\sqrt{45}

Then, the unit vector becomes:

\frac{4}{\sqrt{45} } i\,+\frac{2}{\sqrt{45} } j-\frac{5}{\sqrt{45} } k

gulaghasi [49]
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (later speed) - (earlier speed) = (13 - 24) = -11 km/hr
Time for the change = 2 seconds

Acceleration = (-11 km/hr) / (2 sec)

Acceleration = -5.5 km/hr-sec  (B)
