Collapse question part Part 4 (d) What is the unit vector in the direction of the spacecraft's velocity? (Express your answer in

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

unit (v) = [ -0.199 i - 0.8955 j + 0.39801 k ]

Explanation:

Given:

v = (-23.2, -104.4, 46.4) m/s

Above expression describes spacecraft's velocity vector v.

Find:

Find unit vector in the direction of spacecraft velocity v.

Solution:

Step 1: Compute magnitude of velocity vector.

mag (v) = sqrt ( 23.2^2 + 104.4^2 + 46.4^2)

mag (v) = 116.58 m/s

Step 2: Compute unit vector unit (v)

unit (v) = vec (v) / mag (v)

unit (v) = [ -23.2 i -104.4 j + 46.4 k ] / 116.58

unit (v) = [ -0.199 i - 0.8955 j + 0.39801 k ]

A light string is wrapped around the edge of the smaller disk, and a 1.50 kg block is suspended from the free end of the string.

LenaWriter [7]

Answer: 7.41 m/s

Explanation: By using the law of of energy, kinetic energy of the brick as it falls equals the potential energy before falling.

Kinetic energy = mv²/2, potential energy = mgh

mv²/2 = mgh

v²/2 = gh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

Where g = 9.8 m/s², h = 2.80m

v = √2×9.8×2.8 = 7.41 m/s

To test the performance of its tires, a car

Rom4ik [11]

The coefficient of static friction is 0.222

Explanation:

In order for the car to remain in circular motion, the frictional force must be able to provide the necessary centripetal force. Therefore, the car will start skidding when the two forces are equal:

$\mu mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}$
