atroni [7]

Answer:

The plane is 2353.7 mi from the starting position.

Explanation:

Please, see the attached figure for a graphic representation of the problem.

We have 2 displacement vectors "a" and "b" and a vector "c" that is the sum of vectors "a" plus "b" (c = a + b). The module of "c" will be the distance of the plane from the starting point.

vector a = (xa, ya)

vector b = (xb, yb)

where “xa” and “xb” are the horizontal components of the vectors “a” and “b” respectively and “ya” and “yb” are the vertical components of each vector.

Then, the vector c = a + b will be:

c = (xa + xb, ya + yb)

The module of a vector is calculated using the following expression for a vector “v”:

module of v = \sqrt{x^{2} + y^{2} }

Then, the module of c will be:

module of c = \sqrt{(xa + xb)^{2} + (ya + yb)^{2}} = distance from starting point

Then, we have to find the components of vectors “a” and “b”

The distance traveled during the first 1.5 hours of the trip is the module of the vector “a”. Then:

module of a = \sqrt{xa^{2} + ya^{2} } = distance traveled during the first 1.5 hours.

The distance can be calculated using the equation of the position of an object moving in a straight line at constant speed:

x = x0 + v * t

where

x = position at time t

x0 = initial position

v = speed

t = time

Considering x0 as the starting point (x0 = 0)

x = 675 mi/h * 1.5 h = 1012.5 mi

Then:

module of a = \sqrt{xa^{2} + ya^{2} } = 1012. 5 mi

Since the plane moves only on the horizontal (see figure), the "y" component of the vector, "ya", will be 0.

Then:

(1012.5 mi)² = xa²

xa = 1012. 5mi

a = (1012.5 mi, 0)

In the same way, we have fo find the components of the vector “b”. The module of “b” will be the distance traveled during this part of the flight:

module of b = \sqrt{xb^{2} + yb^{2} } = x = x0 + v * t

Considering x0 as the point at which the plane turns (x0 = 0)

x = 675 mi / h * 2 h = 1350 mi

Using trigonometry, we can calculate xb and yb (see figure):

sin angle = opposite / hypotenuse

cos angle = adjacent / hypotenuse

In this case:

opposite = yb

adjacent = xb

hypotenuse = module of “b”

Then:

sin 10° = yb / module of “b”

sin 10° * module of “b” = yb

In the same way:

cos 10° * module of “b” = xb

Since module of “b” = 1350 mi

xb = 1329.5 mi

yb = 234.4 mi

b = (1329.5 mi, 234.4 mi)

The vector c = a+b can now be calculated:

c = (xa + xb, ya + yb)

c =(1012.5 mi + 1329.5 mi, 0 mi + 234.4 mi) = (2342 mi, 234.4 mi)

The module of c will be:

module of c = \sqrt{(2342 mi)^{2} + (234.4 mi)^{2} } = 2353.7 mi

The plane is 2353.7 mi from the starting position.

A 60.0 kg girl stands up on a stationary floating raft and decides to go into shore. She dives off the 180 kg floating raft with
lord [1]
Momentum, p = m.v
m of the girl = 60.0 kg
m of the boat = 180 kg
v of the girl = 4.0 m/s

A) Momentum of the girl as she is diving:
p = m.v = 60.0 kg * 4.0 m/s = 24.0 N/s

B) momentum of the raft = - momentum of the girl = -24.0 N/s

C) speed of the raft

p = m.v ; v = p/m = 24.0N/s / 180 kg = -0.13 m/s [i.e. in the opposite direction of the girl's velocity]

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

a. 41.96ft/s

b. 1.096s

Explanation:

a. v²=u²+2gs
