As these are distances created by moving in a straight line, using a trigonometric analysis can solve the missing single straight-line displacement. Looking at the 48m and 12m movements as legs of a triangle, obtaining the hypotenuse using the pythagorean theorem will yield us the correct answer.
This is shown below:
c^2 = 48^2 + 12^2
c = sqrt(2304 + 144)
c = sqrt(2448)
c = 49.48 m
To obtain the angle at which Anthony walks 49.48, we obtain the arc tangent of (12/48). This is shown below:
arc tan (12/48) =14.04 degrees.
Therefore, Anthony could have walked 49.48 m towards the S 14.04 W direction.
Answer:
11.48 m
Explanation:
A brick starts from rest and gains a speed of 15 m/s and accelerates at 9.8 m/s^2
u = 0
v= 15
a= 9.8
s= ?
V^2 = U^2 + 2as
15^2 = 0^2 + 2 × 9.8×s
225= 19.6s
s= 225/19.6
s = 11.48m
Hence the brick will fall 11.48 m
They are similar to the earth. Not relative to the outer planets
Answer:
Explanation:
The angle of incidence and refraction are both measured from the normal
angle of incidence = 30°
angle of refraction = 23°
refractive index(n) = sini / sinr
n = sin30°/sin23°
n = 1.27965
refractive index (n) = 1/sinC
where C is the critical angle.
sinC= 1/n
C =arcsin (1/n)
C =arcsin (1/1.27965)
C = 51.39°
