6. An ostrich cannot fly, but it is able to run fast. Suppose an ostrich runs east for 7.95 s and then runs 161 m south, so that

the magnitude of the ostrich's resultant displacement is 226 m. Calculate the magnitude of the ostrich's eastward component.

Answer:

159 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

It was stated that if the ostrich ran towards the east direction in 7.95 s, let say the distance from the starting point is O towards the east side E, let called the distance towards the east side to be OE.

Again, the ostrich then runs in the south direction for 161 m, let the distance be OS.

Also, let the magnitude of the resultant displacement between the east direction to the south direction be ES = 226m.

We are to find, the magnitude of the ostrich's eastward component.

i.e. The distance traveled from the center to the east direction within the time frame of 7.95 s.

Using the Pythagoras rule:

ES² = OE² + OS²

226² = OE² + 161²

226² -  161² = OE²

OE²  =  226² -  161²

OE²  = 51076 - 25921

OE²  =  51076 - 25921

OE²  =  25155

OE = \sqrt{25155}

OE =  158.60 m

OE ≅ 159 m

Thus, the magnitude of the ostrich's towards the eastward component. = 159 m.

Demarco has a piece of fabric 6yd long. He uses a piece 3yd long. He cuts the rest into strips that are each 3\4 yd long. How ma
Kobotan [32]

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to subtract the amount of fabric used (3yd) to the total fabric that Demarco has (6yd)

6 -3 =3yd

Finally, we have to divide the result by the length of each strip piece (3/4yd)

3÷ 3/4= 4 pieces  

There are 4 3/4 yd long strips.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
