A fish swimming in a horizontal plane has velocity i = (4.00 î + 1.00 ĵ) m/s at a point in the ocean where the position relative
Liula [17]

Question is missing. Found on google:

a) What are the components of the acceleration of the fish?  

(b) What is the direction of its acceleration with respect to unit vector î?

(c) If the fish maintains constant acceleration, where is it at t = 30.0 s?

(a) (0.73, -0.47) m/s^2

The initial velocity of the fish is

u=(4.00 i + 1.00 j) m/s

while the final velocity is

v=(15.0 i - 6.00 j) m/s

Initial and final velocity are related by the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

a is the acceleration

t is the time

The time in this case is t = 15.0 s, so we can use the previous equation to find the acceleration, separating the components:

v_x = u_x + a_x t\\a_x = \frac{v_x-u_x}{t}=\frac{15.0-4.00}{15.0}=0.73 m/s^2

v_y = u_y + a_y t\\a_y = \frac{v_y-u_y}{t}=\frac{-6.00-1.00}{15.0}=-0.47 m/s^2

(b) -32.8^{\circ}

The direction of the acceleration vector with respect to i can be found by using the formula

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{a_y}{a_x})

where

a_x is the horizontal  component of the acceleration

a_y is the vertical component of the acceleration

From part a), we have

a_x = 0.73 m/s^2

a_y = -0.47 m/s^2

Substituting,

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{-0.47}{0.73})=-32.8^{\circ}

(c) r=(460.5 i - 185.1 j )m

The initial position of the fish is

r_0 = (12.0 i -3.60 j) m

The generic position r at time t is given by

r= r_0 + ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

u=(4.00 i + 1.00 j) m/s is the initial velocity

a=(0.73 i -0.47 j) m/s^2 is the acceleration

Substituting t = 30.0 s, we find the final position of the fish. Separating each component:

r_x =12.0 + (4.00)(30) + \frac{1}{2}(0.73)(30)^2=460.5 m\\r_y = -3.60 + (1.00)(30) + \frac{1}{2}(-0.47)(30)^2=-185.1 m

So the final position is

r=(460.5 i - 185.1 j )m

A very small tilt in Earth’s axis would likely cause ____.
olchik [2.2K]
If the Earth's axis were closer to "straight up and down" than
the present 23.5°, then . . .

-- The areas around the north and south poles where the sun
can be up or down for more than 24 hours would be smaller.

-- The "Tropic Zone", between the Tropic of Cancer and the
Tropic of Capricorn, where it's possible for the sun to be
directly overhead, would be narrower.

-- There would be less difference, everywhere, between the
lengths of daylight on the "longest day" and the "shortest day"
of the year.

-- The seasons would be less extreme everywhere.  There would
be less difference, everywhere, between the coldest part of the
Winter and the warmest part of the Summer.
