A GPS tracking device is placed in a police dog to monitor its whereabouts relative to the police station. At time t1 = 23 min,

the dog's displacement from the station is 1.2 km, 33° north of east. At time t2 = 57 min, the dog's displacement from the station is 2.0 km, 75° north of east. Find the magnitude and direction of the dog's average velocity between these two times.

Answer:

Explanation:

Let east be towards X-axis ant north be Y-axis. Let initial position of Dog be at

A . O be the police station (centre). Vector OA can be written as follows

OA = 1.2 Cos 33 + 1.2 Sin 33

O B =2 Cos 75 + 2 Sin 75.

Displacement A → B = OB - OA =2Cos75i +2 Sin 75j -1.2 Cos 33i -1.2 Sin 33j

= 2 x .2588 i+ 2x .966j - 1.2 x .8387i - 1.2 x .5446j = .5176i + 1.932 j- 1.0064i - .65356j

= -.4888 i + 1.27844j

Magnitude of displacement =√( .4888)² + ( 1.27844)²

= 1.405 km

Average velocity =1.405 / 57-23 km / min = 1.405 /34 x 60 =2.48 km/h

angle with x-axis ( east towards north ) ∅

Tan∅ =- 1.27844/.4888 = - 2.615

∅ = -69° or 111° towards north from east or 21° towards west from north.

You have negotiated with the Omicronians for a base on the planet Omicron Persei 7. The architects working with you to plan the

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

5.724 meters / second^2

Explanation:

We are given two pieces of information, 5.24 flurg = 1 meter, 1 grom = 0.493 second. If that is so, we can say that there are two possible conversion units, 5.25 flurg / meter, and 0.493 second / grom.

_____

We want to convert 7.29 flurg / grom^2 ( I believe? ) to the units meters / second^2. But, let's break this down into bits. It would be convenient to first convert 7.29 flurg / grom^2 to the units meters / grom^2, by dividing the conversion factors as to cancel out the appropriate things, which we will go into detail on a bit later ( using the first conversion factor ). Respectively we can convert meters / grom^2 to meters / grom * s, canceling out the flurg ( through the second conversion factor ). And now we would need to get rid of the grom, dividing similarly.

_____

( 1 ) ( flurg / grom^2 ) / ( flurg / meters ) - first conversion unit

= flurg / grom^2 * meters /flurg

= ( meters * flurg ) / ( grom^2 * flurg )

= meters /grom^2,

7.29 flurg / grom^2 / 5.24 flurg / meter = ( About ) 1.39 meter / grom^2

( 2 ) ( meter / grom^2 ) / ( second / grom ) - second conversion unit

= meter / grom^2 * grom / second

= ( meter * grom ) / ( grom^2 * second )

= meter / ( grom * second ),

( 1.39 meter / grom^2 ) / 0.493 second / grom = ( About ) 2.82195 meter / grom * second

( 3 ) ( 2.82195 meter / ( grom * second ) ) / 0.493 second / grom = 5.724 meter / second^2

( And thus, the value of gOP7 in the units the architects will use should be about 5.724 meters / second^2 )

Evaporation of sweat requires energy and thus take excess heat away from the body. Some of the water that you drink may eventual

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The amount of heat required is $H_t = 1.37 *10^{6} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of water is $m_w = 20 \ ounce = 20 * 28.3495 = 5.7 *10^2 g$

The temperature of the water before drinking is $T_w = 3.8 ^oC$

The temperature of the body is $T_b = 36.6^oC$

Generally the amount of heat required to move the water from its former temperature to the body temperature is

$H= m_w * c_w * \Delta T$

Here $c_w$ is the specific heat of water with value $c_w = 4.18 J/g^oC$

So

$H= 5.7 *10^2 * 4.18 * (36.6 - 3.8)$

=> $H= 7.8 *10^{4} \ J$

Generally the no of mole of sweat present mass of water is

$n = \frac{m_w}{Z_s}$

Here $Z_w$ is the molar mass of sweat with value

$Z_w = 18.015 g/mol$

=> $n = \frac{5.7 *10^2}{18.015}$

=> $n = 31.6 \ moles$

Generally the heat required to vaporize the number of moles of the sweat is mathematically represented as

$H_v = n * L_v$

Here $L_v$ is the latent heat of vaporization with value $L_v = 7 *10^{3} J/mol$

=> $H_v = 31.6 * 7 *10^{3}$

=> $H_v = 1.29 *10^{6} \ J$

Generally the overall amount of heat energy required is

$H_t = H + H_v$

=> $H_t = 7.8 *10^{4} + 1.29 *10^{6}$

=> $H_t = 1.37 *10^{6} \ J$

A 50 g tennis ball travels at a velocity of 15 m/s, hits a basketball with a mass of 600 g that is stationary on a frictionless

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

1.75 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

(50 g) (15 m/s) + (600 g) (0 m/s) = (50 g) (-6 m/s) + (600 g) v

v = 1.75 m/s

A superhero swings a magic hammer over her head in a horizontal plane. The end of the hammer moves around a circular path of rad

Korolek [52]

Answer:

9.21954 m/s

54 m/s²

Angle is zero

Explanation:

r = Radius of arm = 1.5 m

$\omega$ = Angular velocity = 6 rad/s

The horizontal component of speed is given by

$v_h=\omega r\\\Rightarrow v_h=6\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow v_h=9\ m/s$

The vertical component of speed is given by

$v_v=2\ m/s$

The resultant of the two components will give us the velocity of hammer with respect to the ground

$v=\sqrt{v_h^2+v_v^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{9^2+2^2}\\\Rightarrow v=9.21954\ m/s$

The velocity of hammer relative to the ground is 9.21954 m/s

Acceleration in the vertical component is zero

Net acceleration is given by

$a_n=a_h=\omega^2r\\\Rightarrow a_n=6^2\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow a_n=54\ m/s^2$

Net acceleration is 54 m/s²

As the acceleration is towards the center the angle is zero.
