Complete Question

A student bikes to school by traveling first dN = 0.900 miles north, then dW = 0.300 miles west, and finally dS = 0.100 miles south.

Similarly, let d⃗ W be the displacement vector corresponding to the second leg of the student's trip. Express d⃗ W in component form.

Express your answer as two numbers separated by a comma. Be careful with your signs.

Answer:

The value is  dT  =  ( -0.3,  0.8)

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The first displacement is  dN  =  0.900 \  due  \  North i.e positive  y-axis

   The  second displacement is  dW =  0.300 \  miles  \  due \  west i.e negative  x-axis

   The final displacement is  dS =  0.100 \  miles \ due \ south i.e  negative  y-axis

Generally dW in component for is  

      dW =  (-0.3 ,  0)  

Generally the  total displacement of the student is mathematically represented as

     dT  =  ( -0.3,  (0.90 - 0.10))

      dT  =  ( -0.3,  0.8)

A 500 kg sack of coal falls vertically onto a 2000 kg railroad flatcar which was initially moving horizontally at 3 m/s. no exte
Zinaida [17]

Since there are no external forces, including friction, act on the flatcar. after the sack rests on the flatcar, we would assume that momentum is conserved. This means that

total momentum of car before collision = total momentum of car after collision.

Recall,

momentum = mass x velocity

From the information given,

mass of car before collision = 2000

velocity of car before collision = 3

Thus,

total momentum of car before collision = 2000 x 3 = 6000

Also,

mass of sack = 500

mass of car and sack after collision = 500 + 2000 = 2500

velocity after collision = v

momentum after collision = 2500 x v = 2500v

Since momentum is conserved, then

6000 = 2500v

v = 6000/2500

v = 2.4

the speed of the flatcar is 2.4 m/s
