Trigonometry allows finding the result for the decomposition of the displacement vector is:  

           x = 2.12 mi

           y = -2.12 mi

Displacement is a vector quantity, which has modulus and direction.

The cardinal points are a reference system with respect to which measurements are made, this system is related to the Cartesian system with the East in the positive direction of the x-axis and the North with the positive direction of the y-axis.

In the attached we can see a diagram of the vector and its components, the indicated direction of 45 S of the E, in the Cartesian system where the angles are measured from the positive side of the x-axis in a counterclockwise direction is:

             θ = 360 - 45

             θ = 315º  

Let's use trigonometry to decompose the vector d = 3 mi  

              cos 315 = \frac{x}{d}  

              sin 315 =  \frac{y}{d}  

               

              x = d cos 315

              y = d sin 315

Let's calculate

              x = 3 cos 315

              y = 3 sin 315

              x = 2.12 mi

              y = -2.12 mi

The negative sign indicates that the displacement is towards the negative side, that is, towards the South.

In conclusion using trigonometry we can find the result for the decomposition of the displacement vector are:  

           x = 2.12 mi

           y = -2.12 mi

The average diameter of one tennis ball in a package of three is 6.8 cm. Which of the following is the combined volume of all th
Crank

We want to find the combined volume of 3 tennis balls. We will get that the combined volume is 493.7 cm^3

First, remember that for a sphere of diameter D, the volume is:

V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*(\frac{D}{2})^3

Where 3.14 is pi.

Here we know that the average diameter of a tennis ball is 6.8cm, then we can replace that in the above equation to find the volume (in average) of a single tennis ball:

V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*(\frac{6.8cm}{2})^3 = 164.5 cm^3

Now, in 3 balls of tennis, the combined volume will be 3 times the above one, this is:

3*V = 3*164.5cm^3 = 493.7 cm^3

John dragged a wooden block across a table with 4 different surfaces and the results
AnnyKZ [126]

If the surface is rough then the average force needed to move the wooden block will be more as the friction between the surfaces will be more.

Hence, the least force will be required on the smoothest surface and the greatest force will be required for the roughest surface.

a) Hence, the order will be: B > D > A > C

b) When the surface is glued then the force of friction will increase. Hence, it will require more force to move the wooden block on the surface. Hence, the more required will be more than 105 N.
