In a carnival booth, you can win a stuffed giraffe if you toss a quarter into a small dish. the dish is on a shelf above the poi

Georgia [21]

components of the speed of the coin is given as

$v_x = v cos60$

$v_x = 6.4 cos60 = 3.2 m/s$

$v_y = vsin60$

$v_y = 6.4 sin60 = 5.54 m/s$

now the time taken by the coin to reach the plate is given by

$t = \frac{\delta x}{v_x}$

$t = \frac{2.1}{3.2}$

$t = 0.656 s$

now in order to find the height

$h = vy * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

$h = 5.54 * 0.656 - \frac{1}{2}*9.8*(0.656)^2$

$h = 1.52 m$

so it is placed at 1.52 m height

Answer:

Displacement: 2.230 km Average velocity: 1.274 $\frac{km}{h}$

Explanation:

Let's represent displacement by the letter S and the displacement in direction 49.7° as A. Displaement is a vector, so we need to decompose all the bird's displacement into their X-Y compoments. Let's go one by one:

0.916 km due east is an horizontal direction and cane be seen as direction towards the negative side of X-axis.

0.928 km due south is a vertical direction and can be seen as a direction towards the negative side of Y-axis.
3.52 km in a direction of 49.7° has components on X and Y axes. It is necessary to break it down using trigonometry,

First of all. We need to sum all the X components and all the Y componets.

∑ $Sx = Ax -0.916$ ⇒ ∑ $Sx = [tex]3.52cos(49.7) - 0.916$

∑ $Sx = 1.361 km$

∑ $Sy = Ay - 0.918$ ⇒ ∑ $Sy = 3.52sin(49.7) - 0.918$

∑ $Sy = 1.767$

The total displacement is calculated using Pythagoeran therorem:

$S_{total} =\sqrt{Sx^{2}+ Sy^{2} }$ ⇒

$S_{total} = 2.230 km$

With displacement calculated, we can find the average speed as follows:

$V = S/t$ ⇒ $V = \frac{2.230}{1.750}$

$V = 1.274\frac{km}{h}$

If a dog walks north for 10 meters and then east for 10 meters, what is the direction of its displacement?

Katyanochek1 [597]

The direction of its displacement wil be

c.northeast

In fact, the dog walks north for 10 meters and east for another 10 meters. The path of the dog can be represented with two vectors, A pointing north (of magnitude 10 meters) and B pointing east (of magnitude 10 meters). The direction of the resultant vector (due to east) will be given by

$tan \theta =\frac{A}{B}=\frac{10}{10}=1$

$\theta=tan^{-1} (1)=45^{\circ}$

and the direction will be north-east.
