<h2>Answer:</h2>

|B|  = 47.0 units

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The sum of two vectors (A) and (B) gives another vector (A + B). i.e

(A + B) = (A) + (B)       ----------------(i)

<em>From the question;</em>

Vector A = 28.0 units in the positive y-direction. This means that the value of the x-component is zero and the value of the y-component is +28

In unit vector notation vector A is given as;

A = 0i + 28.0j

Vector A + B = 19.0 units in the negative y-direction. This means that the value of the x-component is zero and the value of the y-component is -19.0

In unit vector notation, vector A + B is given as;

A + B = 0i - 19.0j

To get the magnitude of vector B, make B the subject of the formula in equation (i) as follows;

(B) = (A + B) - (A)            ------------------ (ii)

Substitute the values of the vectors (A) and (A + B) into equation (ii) as follows;

(B) = (0i - 19.0j) - (0i + 28.0j)

(B) = - 19.0j - 28.0j

(B) = - 47.0j

The magnitude of B, |B|, is therefore;

|B| = |-47.0|

|B| = 47.0 units

A research-level Van de Graaff generator has a 2.15 m diameter metal sphere with a charge of 5.05 mC on it. What is the potentia
Llana [10]

Answer:

42.3 MV

Explanation:

d = diameter of the metal sphere = 2.15 m

r = radius of the metal sphere

diameter of the metal sphere is given as

d = 2r

2.15 = 2 r

r = 1.075 m

Q = charge on sphere = 5.05 mC = 5.05 x 10⁻³ C

Potential near the surface is given as

V = \frac{kQ}{r}

V = \frac{(9\times 10^{9})(5.05\times 10^{-3})}{1.075}

V = 4.23 x 10⁷ volts

V = 42.3 MV

Work done of frictional force from instant ​
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

  • -100\ J

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1. Find acceleration:</u>

  • m=2\ kg
  • F=-5\ N
  • a=\frac{F}{m}  (Newton's second law)
  • a=\frac{-5}{2} =-2.5\ \frac{m}{s^{2}}

<u>2. Find distance traveled:</u>

  • v_0=10\ \frac{m}{s}
  • v=0
  • a=-2.5\ \frac{m}{s^{2} }
  • v^2-v_0^2=2ad (Kinematic equation)
  • -100=-5d
  • d=20\ m

3. Find work done by friction:

  • W=Fd (Work formula when angle between Force and Displacement vectors are 0°)
  • W=-5\times20=-100\ J

The force exerted by the wind on the sails of a sailboat is fsail = 410 n north. the water exerts a force of fkeel = 200 n east.
tangare [24]
The North and East forces are 90° apart, making a right triangle with the resultant as the hypotenuse.
(200)² + (410)² = F²
40,000 + 168,100 = F²
√(208,100) = F
456.18 N = F

F= ma
456.18 N = (300 kg)a
456.18 / 300kg = a
1.52 m/s² = a

The sailboat will be heading North East. To  find the angle of the boats trajectory use inverse tangent function.
tan(Ф) = opposite/adjacent
arctan(opposite/adjacent) = Ф

arctan(410/200) = 64° North East
