Answer:

240

Explanation:

We know that Y is 800m from X, and located 400m north of X.

That means the cosine of the bearing of Y from X is 400m/800m = 1/2

We should remember (or use a calculator with arccos) that the angle for which the cosine is 1/2 is 60deg.

The bearing of Y from X is 060.

To get the bearing of X from Y, we just need to add or subtract 180 and we arrive at the answer - 240

A stationary 500 kg tank fires a 20 kg miegile at 100 m/s. What is the velocity of the tank after the missile is fired? Assume t
dedylja [7]

Answer:

v₁ = 4 [m/s].

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by using the principle of conservation of linear momentum. Where momentum is preserved before and after the missile is fired.

P=m*v

where:

P = linear momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

(m_{1}*v_{1})=(m_{2}*v_{2})

where:

m₁ = mass of the tank = 500 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the tank after firing the missile [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the missile = 20 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the missile after firing = 100 [m/s]

(500*v_{1})=(20*100)\\v_{1}=2000/500\\v_{1}=4[m/s]
