Combine these three velocity vectors into a resultant: 3.0 m/s north, 4.0 m/s east 1.0 m/s west. Identify the resultant vector

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The resultant vector is 1 m/s

Explanation:

The resultant vector is 1 m/s west based on triangle law of vector addition, when two sides of a triangle is represented by two vectors, the resultant vector is the third side of the triangle.

At the beginning of a unit on forces, Ms. Alton is leading a class discussion asking her students

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

(iv), (v), (vi) would be incorrect.

Explanation:

(iv) Force isn't transferred from one colliding object to another, but momentum can be.

(v) An object doesn't stop immediately a force stops acting on it. Think of a thrown ball.

(vi) For an object not to move, it means that the net force on the object is zero, and not necessarily that there are no forces acting on the object. For example, an object could be pushed on one side, and be pushed on the other side with an equal force in the opposite direction. The forces would cancel each other and the net force would be zero.

The rest should be correct.

Driving along a boring stretch of interstate in Illinois, you start experimenting using the average speed equation you learned i

astra-53 [7]

The average speed would be 33.29m/s.
The average speed equation is:

$Average speed = \frac{total distance}{total time}$

First you will need to solve for the distance you traveled in each scenario. So we can solve this by getting the product of speed and the time traveled.

Scenario 1:
Speed = 29m/s
Time = 120s
Distance = ?

Distance = (29m/s)(120s)
= 3,480m

Scenario 2
Speed = 35m/s
Time = 300s
Distance = ?

Distance = (35m/s)(300s)
= 10,500m

Now that you have the distance of both, you can solve for your average speed.

$Average speed = \frac{total distance}{total time}$
$= \frac{3,480m+10,500m}{120s+300s}$
$= \frac{13,980m}{420s}$
$= 33.29m/s$
