Answer:

Value of angle between vector a and b is $56.30^{\circ}$ .

Explanation:

Vectors a and b have scalar product 6.00

Let $\theta$ be the angle between a and b.

$\vec{a}.\vec{b} = 6$

ab cos $\theta$ = 6 ...(1)

Vectors a and b have magnitude of vector product 9.00

$\vec{a} \times\vec{b} = 9$

ab sin $\theta$ = 9 ...(2)

Dividing equation (2) by (1) we get

$\frac{ab sin \theta}{ab cos \theta} = \frac{9}{6}$

tan $\theta$ = 1.5

$\theta = tan ^{-1} (1.5)$

$\theta$ = $56.30^{\circ}$

Thus, value of angle between vector a and b is $56.30^{\circ}$ .

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second law and the kinematic equations of movement description.

Newton's second law is defined as

$F = ma$

Where,

m = mass

a = acceleration

From this equation we can figure the acceleration out, then

$a = \frac{F}{m}$

$a = \frac{11*10^3}{80}$

$a = 137.5m/s$

From the cinematic equations of motion we know that

$v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax$

Where,

$v_f =$ Final velocity

$v_i =$ Initial velocity

a = acceleration

x = displacement

There is not Final velocity and the acceleration is equal to the gravity, then

$v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax$

$0-v_i^2 = 2(-g)x$

$v_i =\sqrt{2gx}$

$v_i = \sqrt{2*9.8*4.8}$

$v_i = 9.69m/s$

From the equation of motion where acceleration is equal to the velocity in function of time we have

$a = \frac{v_i}{t}$

$t = \frac{v_i}{a}$

$t =\frac{9.69}{137.5}$

$t = 0.0705s$

Therefore the time required is 0.0705s

melomori [17]

Answer: Anthony will be warmer after the game.

Explanation :

Anthony and Maelynn are watching a football game outside on a sunny day. Anthony is wearing a black shirt and Maelynn is wearing a white shirt. Anthony will be warmer after the game. The black color is a good absorber of radiation and a bad reflector.

The black color absorbs heat until a thermal equilibrium is attained. So, it is advisable to wear cotton clothes in summers not dark colored clothes.

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

R = 0.0503 m

Explanation:

This is a projectile launching exercise, to find the range we can use the equation

R = v₀² sin 2θ / g

How we know the maximum height

$v_{f}$ ² = $v_{oy}$ ² - 2 g y

$v_{f}$ = 0

$v_{oy}$ = √ 2 g y

$v_{oy}$ = √ 2 9.8 / 15

$v_{oy}$ = 1.14 m / s

Let's use trigonometry to find the speed

sin θ = $v_{oy}$ / vo

vo = $v_{oy}$ / sin θ

vo = 1.14 / sin 60

vo = 1.32 m / s

We calculate the range with the first equation

R = 1.32² sin(2 60) / 30

R = 0.0503 m
