In order to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the magnitude of a resultant vector, which must be true regarding the two initia
kirill115 [55]
We know that the Pythagorean theorem applies only to right triangles, therefore the original vectors must be parallel to the legs of a right triangle.

In other words, they must be orthogonal (i.e. perpendicular to each other) in order that the Pythagorean theorem applies.

An equilateral triangle has a height of 3.32 cm. Draw the picture and use this information to determine the length of the sides
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The answer is  a=b=c=3.833 cm

Explanation:

Lets call the variables a=side a b=side b c=side c

We have that the formula of the equilateral triangle for its height is:

1)h=(1/2)*root(3)*a

2) If we resolve the equation we have

 2.1)2h=root(3)*a

 2.2)(2h/root(3))=a

3) After the replacement of each value we have that

a=2*3.32/1.73205

a=3.833 cm

And we know that the equilateral triangle has the same value for each side so a=b=c=3.833 cm

Find the speed at which Superman (mass=78.0 kg) must fly into a train (mass = 17863 kg) traveling at 75.0 km/hr to stop it. Runn
lapo4ka [179]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of superman=m=78 kg

Mass of train=m'=17863 kg

Speed of train=u'=75 km/h=75\times \frac{5}{18}=20.8 m/s

1 km/h=\frac{5}{18} m/s

Let initial speed of superman=u

Momentum=mv

Using the formula

78u=17863\times 75

u=\frac{17863\times 75}{78}

u=17175.9 km/h

Average horizontal force=0.58

Deceleration a=-0.58\times 9.8=-5.68 m/s^2

Final speed of train=v'=0

v=u+at

Using the formula

0=20.8-5.68t

5.68t=20.8

t=\frac{v'-u'}{a}=\frac{0-20.8}{-5.68}

t=3.66 s

v^2-u^2=2as

Using the formula

0-(20.8)^2=2(-5.68)a

(20.8)^2=2(5.68)s

s={\frac{(20.8)^2}{2(5.68)}=38.1 m

a 5.5 kg box is pushed across the lunch table.the net force applied to the box is 9.7 N.what is the acceleration of the box?
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

1.76m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is the time rate of change in velocity of a body. It is a vector quantity that is it has both magnitude and direction

From newton's second law of motion which states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the applied force which takes place in the direction of force applied.

This law gives a formula which relate force, mass and acceleration.

Force = mass x acceleration

Given that force = 9.7N , mass = 5.5kg

Since force(F)= mass(m) x acceleration(a)

Therefore F = ma

Divide both sides by m

F/m = ma/m

Therefore,

Acceleration (a)  = F/m

Acceleration = 9.7N ➗ 5.5kg

Acceleration = 1.76m/s²

The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s²
