- If two vectors are equal, what can you say about their components? What can you say about their magnitudes? What can you say about their directions?arrow_forwardIf two vectors have the same magnitude, do their components have to be the same?arrow_forwardAt t = 0, a particle moving in the xy plane with constant acceleration has a velocity of vi=(3.00i2.00j)m/s and is at the origin. At t = 3.00 s, the particles velocity is vf=(9.00i+7.00j)m/s. Find (a) the acceleration of the particle and (b) its coordinates at any time t.arrow_forward
- A hiker walks from (x1, y1) = (4.00 km. 3.00 km) to (x2, y2) = (3.00 km, 6.00 km), (a) What distance has the traveled? (b) The hiker desires to return to his starting point. In what direction should he go? (Give the angle with respect to due cast.) (See Sections 3.2 and 3.3.)arrow_forwardA particle moves through 3-space in such a way that its acceleration is a(t)= 8sin 2ri +8cos 2tj+e'k . where t is time measured in seconds. The initial velocity of the particle is v, = 2i – 3j+k. At time t = t , find i) the velocity vector of the particle. ii) the scalar tangential and normal components of acceleration.arrow_forwardThe position r of a particle moving in an xy plane is given by ř seconds. In unit-vector notation, calculate (a) 7, (b) V , and (c) a for t = 3.00 s. (d) What is the angle between the positive direction of the x axis and a line tangent to the particle's path at t = 3.00 s?

- Calculate the magnitude and direction of the resultant of the two vectors a) 50 km E and b) 70 km 60* NE.arrow_forwardAt a football game, imagine the line of scrimmage is the y-axis. A player, starting at the y-axis, runs 7.50 yards, back (in the −x-direction), then 15.0 yards parallel to the y-axis (in the −y-direction). He then throws the football straight downfield 50.0 yards in a direction perpendicular to the y-axis (in the +x-direction). What is the magnitude of the displacement (in yards) of the ball?What if? The receiver that catches the football travels 65.0 additional yards at an angle of 45.0° counterclockwise from the +x-axis away from the quarterback's position and scores a touchdown. What is the magnitude of the football's total displacement (in yards) from where the quarterback took the ball to the end of the receiver's run?arrow_forwardB = -i - 4j and 47. For vectors A = -3 i – 2j, calculate (a) A + B and its magnitude and direction angle, and (b) Á - B and its magnitude and direction angle.arrow_forward
- Question 5: The position vector of a particle moving in a circular path of radius R is given by the following expression T(t) = R[– sin(3t²)î+ cos(3t²)3] where B is a positive constant (i and j are the unit vectors corresponding to x and y axes in the two dimensional Cartesian Coordinate System, respectively). At time t = 4 secs., what is the ratio of magnitudes of the tangential acceleration and the centripetal acceleration, at where at and aț are the magnitudes of the tangential and the centripetal accelerations, respectively.arrow_forwardInitially, an object in uniform circular motion (assume clockwise motion) has a velocity vector given by v = (-3.00") î + (4.00"). If the radius of travel is 3.00 meters, determine the acceleration vector (in unit-vector notation) after 5.00 seconds have elapsed.arrow_forwardThe velocity vector of a particle is given by: V = Vje-)[sin(wt)i + cos(wt)j] where, Vo = 12.1 m/s; T = 2.5 s; w = 5.2 rad/s Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s2) at t = 7.4 sarrow_forward
