The answer:
the full question is as follow:
 <span>A Texas rancher wants to fence off his four-sided plot of flat land. He measures the first three sides, shown as A, B, and C in Figure below , where A = 4.90 km and θC = 15°. He then correctly calculates the length and orientation of the fourth side D. What is the magnitude and direction of vector D? 

As shown in the figure, 
A + B + C + D = 0, so to find the </span>magnitude and direction of vector D, we should follow the following method:
 D = 0 - (A + B + C) , 
let  W = - (A + B + C), so the magnitude and direction of vector D is the same of the vector W characteristics

Magnitude
 A + B + C = <span> (4.90cos7.5 - 2.48sin16 - 3.02cos15)I</span>
<span>+ (-4.9sin7.5 + 2.48cos16 + 3.02sin15)J
</span>= 1.25I +2.53J
the magnitude of W= abs value of (A + B + C) = sqrt (1.25² + 2.53²)
= 2.82
 
the direction of D can be found by using Dx and Dy value
we know that     tan<span>θo = Dx / Dy = 1.25 / 2.53 =0.49
</span>tanθo =0.49 it implies θo = arctan 0.49 = 26.02°

direction is 26.02°

A sled is moving at a constant speed down a surface inclined at 45 degrees with the horizontal and travels 30meter in 4 seconds.
Vika [28.1K]
Constant speed along the inclined surface = 30 m / 4 s = 7.5 m/s

Vertical speed = inclined speed * sin(45) = 7.5 *√2 / 2 = 5.3 m/s

Answer: 5.3 m/s

A cylinder of diameter 100 mm rolls from restdown a 5 m long ramp and its center of mass is moving with velocity 2 m/s at the bo
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

(a): a = 0.4m/s²

(b): α = 8 radians/s²

Explanation:

First we propose an equation to determine the linear acceleration and an equation to determine the space traveled in the ramp (5m):

a= (Vf-Vi)/t = (2m/s)/t

a: linear acceleration.

Vf: speed at the end of the ramp.

Vi: speed at the beginning of the ramp (zero).

d= (1/2)×a×t² = 5m

d: distance of the ramp (5m).

We replace the first equation in the second to determine the travel time on the ramp:

d = 5m = (1/2)×( (2m/s)/t)×t² = (1m/s)×t ⇒ t = 5s

And the linear acceleration will be:

a = (2m/s)/5s = 0.4m/s²

Now we determine the perimeter of the cylinder to know the linear distance traveled on the ramp in a revolution:

perimeter = π×diameter = π×0.1m = 0.3142m

To determine the angular acceleration we divide the linear acceleration by the radius of the cylinder:

α = (0.4m/s²)/(0.05m) = 8 radians/s²

α: angular aceleration.
