Vector of magnitude 15 is added to a vector of magnitude 25. The magnitude of this sum

Physics
1 answer:
loris [4]2 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnitude of vector A, |A| = 15

Magnitude of vector B, |B| = 25

We need to find the magnitude of this sum.

The maximum sum of the resultant vector,

R_{max}=|A_1|+|A_2|\\\\=15+25\\\\=45

The minimum sum of the resultant vector,

R_{min}=|A_1|-|A_2|\\\\=15-25\\\\=-10

So, the magnitude of this sum either 45 or -10.

A 1.2 x 103 kg racecar, with a velocity of 8 m/s, collides with an unsuspecting 80 kg honey badger who is standing
aalyn [17]

Answer: 90 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of racecar M=1.2\times10^3\ kg

velocity of racecar u=8\ m/s

mass of still honeybadger m=80\ kg

after collision race car is traveling at a speed of v_1=2\ m/s

conserving linear momentum

Mu+m\times0=Mv_1+ mv_2\quad[v_2=\text{velocity of honeybadger after colllision}]

1.2\times10^3\times8+0=1.2\times10^3\times2+80\times v_2

1.2\times10^3(8-2)=80v_2\\v_2=\frac{7.2\times10^3}{80}=90\ m/s

A firecracker in a coconut blows the coconut into three pieces. Two pieces of equal mass fly off south and west, perpendicular t
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m₁=m₂ = m

m₃ = 2 m

Given that speed of the two pieces

u₁=- 25 j m/s

u₂ =- 25 i m/s

Lets take the speed of the third mass = v m/s

From linear momentum conservation

Pi= Pf

0 = m₁u₁+m₂u₂ + m₃ v

0 = -25 j m  - 25 i m + 2 m v

2 v=25 j   + 25 i m/s

v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s

Therefore the speed of the third mass will be v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s

A baseball pitcher throws a baseball horizontally at a linear speed of 42.5 m/s (about 95 mi/h). Before being caught, the baseba
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

4.5m/s

Explanation:

Linear speed (v) = 42.5m/s

Distance(x) = 16.5m

θ= 49.0 rad

radius (r) = 3.67 cm

= 0.0367m

The time taken to travel = t

Recall that speed = distance / time

Time = distance / speed

t = x/v

t = 16.5/42.5

t = 0.4 secs

tangential velocity is proportional to the radius and angular velocity ω

Vt = rω

Angular velocity (ω) = θ/t

ω = 49/0.4

ω = 122.5 rad/s

Vt = rω

Vt = 0.0367 * 122.5

Vt =4.5 m/s
