Answer:
V = 20 miles /sec
Explanation:
We have remaining distance = d = 96 miles
Lets call Pascal velocity V in miles per hour
Now if he increases his velocity by 50 % (equivalent to multiply by 1.5 ) he will need a time t₁ to arrive then as V = d/t
1.5* V = d/ t₁ ⇒ 1.5 * V = 96 /t₁
And in the case of reducing his velocity
(V / 4) = d/ (t₁ + 16 ) ⇒ V * (t₁ + 16 ) = 4*d ⇒ V*t₁ + 16*V = 384
So we a 2 equation system with two uknown variables
1.5*V = 96/t₁ (1)
V*t₁ + 16*V = 384 (2)
We solve from equation (1) t₁ = 64/V
And by substitution in equation (2)
V * (64/V) + 16* V = 384
64 + 16 *V = 384 ⇒ 16*V = 320 ⇒ V= 320/16
V = 20 miles /sec
Answer:
See answers below
Explanation:
a.
F = mg,
15.5 N = m(9.8 m/s²)
m = 1.58 kg
b.
Fnet = Applied force - resistance,
Fnet = 18 N - 4.30 N,
Fnet = 13.70 N
Fnet = ma
13.70 N = (1.58 kg)a
a = 8.67 m/s²
For the free body diagram, draw a box with an upward arrow labeled 15.5 N, a downward label labeled 15.5 N, a right label labeled 18 N, and a left label labeled 4.30 N.
The addition of vectors involve both magnitude and direction. In this case, we make use of a triangle to visualize the problem. The length of two sides were given while the measure of the angle between the two sides can be derived. We then assign variables for each of the given quantities.
Let:
b = length of one side = 8 m
c = length of one side = 6 m
A = angle between b and c = 90°-25° = 75°
We then use the cosine law to find the length of the unknown side. The cosine law results to the formula: a^2 = b^2 + c^2 -2*b*c*cos(A). Substituting the values, we then have: a = sqrt[(8)^2 + (6)^2 -2(8)(6)cos(75°)]. Finally, we have a = 8.6691 m.
Next, we make use of the sine law to get the angle, B, which is opposite to the side B. The sine law results to the formula: sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b and consequently, sin(75)/8.6691 = sin(B)/8. We then get B = 63.0464°. However, the direction of the resultant vector is given by the angle Θ which is Θ = 90° - 63.0464° = 26.9536°.
In summary, the resultant vector has a magnitude of 8.6691 m and it makes an angle equal to 26.9536° with the x-axis.
The total momentum is unchanged according to the law of conservation of momentum. When the gun is fired, the bullet gains a high velocity forward (positive velocity), and that velocity multiplied by its mass is the momentum the bullet gains. Therefore, the gun must gain a momentum backwards to cancel out that momentum forward, so the gun recoils back with a negative velocity.
Answer:
Explanation:
We can calculate the acceleration experimented by the passenger using the formula 
, taking the initial direction of movement as the positive direction and considering it comes to a rest:
Then we use Newton's 2nd Law to calculate the force the passenger of mass m experimented to have this acceleration:
Which for our values is:
