Guys please look at the way the words in the two values are ordered. I realize 58deg E of N is different than 58 deg N of E. But that is not what I asked. Please read it again. To me the two values 58deg North of East and East 58deg North seem the same. The first one seems like you are heading...
In 2.0 min., a duck travels 22m [36deg N of E] then paddles 65m [E 25deg S] determine
i) total distance, ii) average speed, iii)tatol displacement iv) average velocity.
Relevant equations: v%=d/t (for velocity and speed)
i) total distance 22m+65m=87m
ii) v%=87m/120s
v = 0.725m/s...
In its final trip upstream to its spawwning territory, a salmon jumps to the top of a waterfall 1.9m high. What is the minimum vertical velocity needed by the salmon to reach the top of the waterfall?
Is there enough given in this problem to solve it?
All I can see is; ay=-9.8m/s^2 and dy=...
Let North and East be positive and let S represent the swimmer, W for water and G for the observers on the ground.
So wVg= 2m/s [E 25 deg S] and sVg = 4 m/s [N]
I drew a diagram of both the swimmers vector and the cross current vector. The resulting diagram is a triangle with 2m/s [E 25 deg...
In an anniversary celebration of Marilyn Bell's 1954 crossing of Lake Ontario a swimmer set out from the shores of New York and maintained a velocity of 4m/s [N]. As the swimmer approached the Ontario shore, she encountered a cross current of 2m/s [E 25deg S]. Find her velocity with respect to...
I'm currently studying Kinematics but I've been out of H.S. for nine yrs. now. I know this is more of a math problem but could someone pls. show me how ;
a=(vf-vi) / t can be manipulated to find vf, as vf = vi + at
Much appreciated!
Homework Statement
In a total time of 2.0 min, a duck on a pond paddles 22m [36deg N of E] and then paddles another 65 m [E 25deg S].
Determine the duck's
i) total distance...I answered this.
ii) average speed...I answered this.
iii) total displacement...This is my dilema.
iv)...
