Jack travels 80 km in 50 minutes. What is his speed in m/s?

A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 12 m away. If a man 2 m tall walks from the spotlight toward the building at a speed

gregori [183]

Answer:

the rate of the change of the length of the shadow is - 0.8625 m/s.

The negative(-) sign means the length of the shadow decreases at a rate of 0.8625 m/s.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Let x represent the man's distance from building,

initially x = 1m2

dx/d t= -2.3 m/s

Also Let y represent shadow height

so we determine dy/dt when x is 4m from the building

form the image description of the problem, we see two-like triangles with the same base and height ratios

so

2 / (12-x) = y / 12

24 = y(12 - x )

y = 24 / (12-x)

dy/dt = 24/(12-x)² × dx/dt

Now at x = 4,

we substitute

dy/dt will be;

⇒ 24/(12 - 4)² × -2.3

= 24/64 - 2.3

= 0.375 × -2.3

dy/dt = - 0.8625 m/s

Therefore, the rate of the change of the length of the shadow is - 0.8625 m/s.

The negative(-) sign means the length of the shadow decreases at a rate of 0.8625 m/s.

A particle having a speed of 0.87c has a momentum of 10-16 kg·m/s. what is its mass?

cupoosta [38]

The momentum p of a moving particle is the product between its mass, m, and tis velocity, v:
$p=mv$
In our problem, we know $p=10^{-16}~Kg \cdot m/s$ and $v=0.87c=0.87\cdot 3\cdot10^8~m/s=2.61\cdot 10^8~m/s$ , and using the relationship mentioned above, we can find the mass m of the particle:
$m= \frac{p}{v} =3.8\cdot10^{-25}~Kg$

A vector → A has a magnitude of 56.0 m and points in a direction 30.0° below the negative x axis. A second vector, → B , has a m

MissTica

Answer:

The magnitude of the vector $\vec{C}$ is 107.76 m

Explanation:

To find the components of the vectors we can use:

$\vec{A} = | \vec{A} | \ ( \ cos(\theta) \ , \ sin (\theta) \ )$

where $| \vec{A} |$ is the magnitude of the vector, and θ is the angle over the positive x axis.

The negative x axis is displaced 180 ° over the positive x axis, so, we can take:

$\vec{A} = 56.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 180 \° + 30 \°) \ , \ sin (180 \° + 30 \°) \ )$

$\vec{A} = 56.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 210 \°) \ , \ sin (210 \°) \ )$

$\vec{A} = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ , \ - 28 \ m \ )$

$\vec{B} = 82.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 180 \° - 49 \°) \ , \ sin (180 \° - 49 \°) \ )$

$\vec{B} = 82.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 131 \°) \ , \ sin (131 \°) \ )$

$\vec{B} = ( \ -53.797 \ m \ , \ 61.886\ m \ )$

Now, we can perform vector addition. Taking two vectors, the vector addition is performed:

$(a_x,a_y) + (b_x,b_y) = (a_x+b_x,a_y+b_y)$

So, for our vectors:

$\vec{C} = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ , \ - 28 \ m \ ) + ( \ -53.797 \ m \ , ) = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ -53.797 \ m , \ - 28 \ m \ + \ 61.886\ m \ )$

$\vec{C} = ( \ - 102.294 \ m , \ 33.886 m \ )$

To find the magnitude of this vector, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem

$|\vec{C}| = \sqrt{C_x^2 + C_y^2}$

$|\vec{C}| = \sqrt{(- 102.294 \ m)^2 + (\ 33.886 m \)^2}$

$|\vec{C}| =107.76 m$

And this is the magnitude we are looking for.
