I've got a homework packet that I've been working on that's due tomorrow afternoon. I was planning on visiting the physics tutoring center today on campus, but everything is shut down because of the 21" of snow that we got last night.
I have 3 problems that I've been staring at for the last...
I guess there were a lot of students confused on question 7 so this is what are instructor said.
HW problems from Chapter 3 Hint for Problem 7: The tension on the pendulum string has an x and y component, the y component is T cos theta and is equal to mg - use this to solve for T. The x...
Question 6 I don't really understand what they are trying to get across.
So a particle is going N at 100 ms^2
So that gives me acceleration is=100 constantly
It gives me east velocity at 45 m/s at t=0 (time)
I'm assuming the North part is important, but I don't know what equation...
Physics Problems ? (particle acceleration)
I'm working on my last 2 of 30 or so physics problems and am pretty lost on what to do/how to even start. The homework is due in exactly 3 hrs, I already have an "A" on this assignment but would like to squeeze on these last 6 points or so.
Question...
Ok well I know my unknown side is 39.82. My last question where it asks how much extra did the plane fly comes out to 99.82 miles.
Now the question asks
I figure out the unknown side which is 39.82 viat the law of cos. I looked that up via the internet, I'd forgotten that rule. I also...
I looked up the law of cos which states C^2=a^2+b^2-2ab cos (c)
So I plugged in my numbers and I got 39.82. Would someone mind just checking my solution and seeing if it works
Homework Statement
The pilot of a small plane finds that the airport where he intended to land is fogged in. He flies 40 miles west to another airport to find that conditions there are too icy for him to land. He flies 20 miles at 15° east of south and is finally able to land at the third...
