Given :

Magnitude of vector, v = 15.3 m

Angle of vector from horizon, $\theta = 65^o$ .

To Find :

The x - component of the given vector.

Solution :

We know, a vector is given by :

$\vec{v} = vsin\ \theta \hat{i} + v cos \ \theta \hat{j}\\$

Now, the x - component is :

$\vec{v_x} = vcos\ \theta \hat{j}\\\\\vec{v_x} = 15.3 \times cos\ 65^o \hat{j}\\\\\vec{v_x} = 15.3 \times 0.42\ \hat{j}\\\\\vec{v_x} = 6.426\ \hat{j}$

Hence, this is the required solution.

The quantity of matter in an object. More specifically, it is the measure of the inertia that an object exhibits in response to

nlexa [21]

Answer:

Mass

Explanation:

The mass of an object expresses the amount of matter it comprises. Which implies that objects with higher mass contains higher matter compared to objects with lesser masses. Thereby it determines the measure of inertia experienced by an object when a force is applied to change its direction of motion, or to set it in motion when at rest, or bring it to rest when in motion.

The mass of an object the same no matter its location, and it is measured in kilograms.

A loaded ore car has a mass of 950 kg. and rolls on rails ofnegligible friction. It starts from rest ans is pulled up a mineshaf

stiks02 [169]

(a) 10241 W

In this situation, the car is moving at constant speed: this means that its acceleration along the direction parallel to the slope is zero, and so the net force along this direction is also zero.

The equation of the forces along the parallel direction is:

$F - mg sin \theta = 0$

where

F is the force applied to pull the car

m = 950 kg is the mass of the car

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

$\theta=30.0^{\circ}$ is the angle of the incline

Solving for F,

$F=mg sin \theta = (950)(9.8)(sin 30.0^{\circ})=4655 N$

Now we know that the car is moving at constant velocity of

v = 2.20 m/s

So we can find the power done by the motor during the constant speed phase as

$P=Fv = (4655)(2.20)=10241 W$

(b) 10624 W

The maximum power is provided during the phase of acceleration, because during this phase the force applied is maximum. The acceleration of the car can be found with the equation

$v=u+at$

where

v = 2.20 m/s is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

u = 0 is the initial velocity

t = 12.0 s is the time

Solving for a,

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{2.20-0}{12.0}=0.183 m/s^2$

So now the equation of the forces along the direction parallel to the incline is

$F - mg sin \theta = ma$

And solving for F, we find the maximum force applied by the motor:

$F=ma+mgsin \theta =(950)(0.183)+(950)(9.8)(sin 30^{\circ})=4829 N$

The maximum power will be applied when the velocity is maximum, v = 2.20 m/s, and so it is:

$P=Fv=(4829)(2.20)=10624 W$

(c) $5.82\cdot 10^6 J$

Due to the law of conservation of energy, the total energy transferred out of the motor by work must be equal to the gravitational potential energy gained by the car.

The change in potential energy of the car is:

$\Delta U = mg \Delta h$
