The Cartesian coordinate of a point in the xy plane are (x,y)=(-3.50,-2.50)m. Find the poler coordinate of this point

Masja [62]

Answer:

The polar coordinate of $P(x,y) = (-3.50\,m,-2.50\,m)$ is $P (r,\theta) = (4.301\,m, 215.538^{\circ})$ .

Explanation:

Given a point in rectangular form, that is $P(x,y) = (x,y)$ , its polar form is defined by:

$P(x,y) = (r,\theta)$ (1)

Where:

$r$ - Norm, measured in meters.

$\theta$ - Direction, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

The norm of the point is determined by Pythagorean Theorem:

$r = \sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}$ (2)

And direction is calculated by following trigonometric relation:

$\theta = \tan^{-1} \frac{y}{x}$ (3)

If we know that $x = -3.50\,m$ and $y = -2.50\,m$ , then the components of coordinates in polar form is:

$r = \sqrt{(-3.50\,m)^{2}+(-2.50\,m)^{2}}$

$r \approx 4.301\,m$

Since $x < 0\,m$ and $y < 0\,m$ , direction is located at 3rd Quadrant. Given that tangent function has a period of 180º, we find direction by using this formula:

$\theta = 180^{\circ}+\tan^{-1} \left(\frac{-2.50\,m}{-3.50\,m} \right)$

$\theta \approx 215.538^{\circ}$

The polar coordinate of $P(x,y) = (-3.50\,m,-2.50\,m)$ is $P (r,\theta) = (4.301\,m, 215.538^{\circ})$ .

6. An earthquake releases two types of traveling seismic waves, called transverse and longitudinal waves. The average speed of t

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

The distance away the center of the earthquake is 1083.24 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of transverse wave = 9.1\ km/s

Speed of longitudinal wave = 5.7 km/s

Time = 71 sec

We need to calculate the distance of transverse wave

Using formula of distance

$d=v\times t$

$d=9.1\times t$ ....(I)

The distance of longitudinal wave

$d=5.7\times (t+71)$ ....(II)

From the first equation

$t=\dfrac{d}{9.1}$

Put the value of t in equation (II)

$d =5.7\times(\dfrac{d}{9.1}+71)$

$\dfrac{9.1d-5.7d}{9.1}=71\times5.7$

$d0.3736=404.7$

$d =1083.24\ km$

Hence, The distance away the center of the earthquake is 1083.24 km.
