    2-D Kinematics Vector Resolution

    Homework Statement Snoopy is running to his doghouse at 3.0 m/s [N 15° E] for 35 s. Charlie has a bone and calls his dog back. Snoopy immediately turns around and runs towards Charlie at 4.5 m/s [S 45° W] for 30 s. Find Snoopy's displacement.Homework Equations dt = d1 + d2 d1=d1x + d1y & d2=d2x...

    Combining Sine and Cosine Functions for f-g: Homework Example

    Sorry for my ignorance, I understand what you explained previously, but I don't understand what I get for f(x) and g(x)?

    Combining Sine and Cosine Functions for f-g: Homework Example

    Homework Statement Determine a sine function, f, and a cosine function, g, such that y = sqrt2sin(pi(x-2.25)) can be written in the form of f-g.Homework Equations (f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)The Attempt at a Solution I think that you should sub in the y= equation so that you get: sqrt2sin(pi(x-2.25))...

    Graduate Inflation Theory: Matter-Antimatter Annihilation Concept

    Ah, okay. I wasn't sure of if they were related. I read something to this effect: "But the last (important) thing that inflation predicts was so profound, because it wasn't yet observed when it was predicted. Quantum mechanics tells us that empty space isn't completely empty. It's full of...

    What is the tension in each piece of rope in an accelerating balloon system?

    Homework Statement If the balloon in the diagram drawn below is accelerating upwards at 0.40 m/s (squared), calculate the tension in each piece of rope. Assume that the rope has no mass. The diagram: Homework Equations F = ma The Attempt at a Solution For the bottom piece of rope...
