Answer:

  • R = ( 4.831 m , 1.469 m )
  • Magnitude of R = 5.049 m
  • Direction of R relative to the x axis= 16°54'33'

Explanation:

Knowing the magnitude and directions relative to the x axis, we can find the Cartesian representation of the vectors using the formula

\vec{A}= | \vec{A} | \ ( \ cos(\theta) \ , \ sin (\theta) \ )

where | \vec{A} | its the magnitude and θ.

So, for our vectors, we will have:

\vec{D}= 3.00 m \ ( \ cos(315) \ , \ sin (315) \ )

\vec{D}=  ( 2.121 m , -2.121 m )

and

\vec{E}= 4.50 m \ ( \ cos(53.0) \ , \ sin (53.0) \ )

\vec{E}= ( 2.71 m , 3.59 m )

Now, we can take the sum of the vectors

\vec{R} = \vec{D} + \vec{E}

\vec{R} = ( 2.121 \ m , -2.121 \ m ) + ( 2.71 \ m , 3.59 \ m )

\vec{R} = ( 2.121 \ m  + 2.71 \ m , -2.121 \ m + 3.59 \ m )

\vec{R} = ( 4.831 \ m , 1.469 \ m )

This is R in Cartesian representation, now, to find the magnitude we can use the Pythagorean theorem

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{R_x^2 + R_y^2}

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{(4.831 m)^2 + (1.469 m)^2}

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{23.338 m^2 + 2.158 m^2}

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{25.496 m^2}

|\vec{R}| = 5.049 m

To find the direction, we can use

\theta = arctan(\frac{R_y}{R_x})

\theta = arctan(\frac{1.469 \ m}{4.831 \ m})

\theta = arctan(0.304)

\theta = 16\°54'33''

As we are in the first quadrant, this is relative to the x axis.

The description for a certain brand of house paint claims a coverage of 475 ft²/gal.
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

(a) 11.66 square meters per liter

(b) 11657.8 per meters

(c) 0.00211 gal per square feet

Explanation:

(a) 475ft^2/gal = 475ft^2/gal × (1m/3.2808ft)^2 × 1gal/3.7854L = 11.66m^2/L

(b) 475ft^2/gal = 475ft^2/gal × (1m/3.2808ft)^2 × 264.17gal/1m^3 = 11657.8/m

(c) Inverse of 475ft^2/gal = 1/475ft^3/gal = 0.00211gal/ft^3

kaheart [24]

To solve this exercise it is necessary to use the concepts related to Difference in Phase.

The Difference in phase is given by

\Phi = \frac{2\pi \delta}{\lambda}

Where

\delta = Horizontal distance between two points

\lambda = Wavelength

From our values we have,

\lambda = 500nm = 5*10^{-6}m

\theta = 1\°

The horizontal distance between this two points would be given for

\delta = dsin\theta

Therefore using the equation we have

\Phi = \frac{2\pi \delta}{\lambda}

\Phi = \frac{2\pi(dsin\theta)}{\lambda}

\Phi = \frac{2\pi(5*!0^{-6}sin(1))}{500*10^{-9}}

\Phi= 1.096 rad \approx = 1.1 rad

Therefore the correct answer is C.

GuDViN [60]

Answer: Technician B is right.

Explanation:

Evacuation process is used in refrigeration systems to remove moisture, air and non-profit condensable gases in order to achieve maximum function of the system.

vacuum pump is used to draw the sealed AC system into a vacuum. Evacuation of a refrigerant system also helps to maintain pressure, this is so as pulling a vacuum on the system is simply removing matter (mostly air and nitrogen) from inside the system so that the pressure inside drops below atmospheric pressure.
