The velocities and the speed build a triangle, where the 1.7 m/s are the hypotenuse and the x-velocity and y-velocity are the other sides.
<span>So the x-velocity is: speed*cos(angle) </span>
<span>now plug in </span>
<span>x=1.7 m/s * cos(18.5)=1.597 m/s </span>
To answer this question, you need to know the definition of Relative Motion:
The motion is relative when it depends on a reference point or referencial system. If you know the reference point, you can determine the velocity of an object.
If you are sitting on your chair, you are not moving relative to it (Your speed is 0 km/s); but as you know, our planet moves around the Sun (Traslation Movement) with a speed of 30.0 km/s. Therefore, you are moving 30.0 km/s relative to the sun.
Answer:
The frequency of the signal is 2 GHz
Explanation:
Given;
period of the clock signal, T = 500 ps = 500 x 10⁻¹² s
the frequency of the signal is given by;
F = 2 GHz
Therefore, the frequency of the signal is 2 x 10⁹ Hz or 2 GHz
Answer: 0.53m
Explanation:
According to the equation of motion v²= v₀²+2as
Since the body is launched upward, the final velocity at the maximum height will be "zero" since the body will momentarily be at rest at the maximum height i.e v = 0
Initial velocity given (v₀) = 3.25 m/s
The body is also under the influence of gravity but the acceleration due to gravity will be negative being an upward force (a = -g) and the distance (s) will serve as our maximum height (h)
The equation of motion will.now become
V = v₀² -2gh
Where v = 0 v₀ = 3.25m/s g = 10m/s h = ?
0 = 3.25² - 2(10)h
0 = 10.56 - 20h
-10.56 = -20h
h = 10.56/20
h = 0.53m
Therefore, the maximum height, h (in meters), above the launch point that the basketball will achieve is 0.53m
