0.77 m/s2 directed 35° south of west

net force = (-17,-12)

net force = mass * acceleration

(-17,-12) = 27 * (x-acceleration,y-acceleration)

(x-acceleration,y-acceleration) = (-17/27,-12/27) = (-0.629629629..., -0.444...)

angle of acceleration = tan^-1 (-0.444.../-0.629629...) = 35.21759 degrees below negative x-axis.

magnitude of acceleration = sqrt((-0.629629...)^2 + (-0.444...)^2) = 0.77069 (5dp)

aliina [53]
For the first part, we are looking for Vf when dy=11.0
Upward is positive, downward is negative. 
So <span>Vf = square root [2(-9.8)(11.0) + (18.0)^2] </span>
<span>Vf = 10.4 m/s your answer is correct. 

For the part b, t is equals to the time took to reach and dy is equals to 11.0
you did, </span>11= 18t m/s-(1/2) 9.8t^2 then <span>-11 + 18t- 9.8t^2. By quadratic formula, for the way down the answer is 2.9 s while on it's way up, the answer is 0.77 s</span><span>

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Since the momentum of the body remains constant ( conserved) the trolley slows down (its velocity reduces) since its mass increases.

hram777 [196]

The mass m of the object = 5.25 kg

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

k = spring constant = 3.5 N/cm

Δx= 30 cm - 15 cm = 15 cm

Required

the mass m

Solution

F=m.g

Hooke's Law

F = k.Δx

\tt m.g=k.\Delta x\\\\m.10=3.5\times 15\\\\m=5.25~kg

ollegr [7]
The displacement is the shortest distance between two points, which is 546.41. The displacement for both is 546.41 meters

Average velocity of X = (200 + 200 + 200) / 30
Average velocity of X = 20 m/s

Average velocity of Y = 546.41 / 30 = 18.2 m/s
