Remember that Fx = Fcos θ and Fy = F sin θ. Find the x and y components of the resultant from the sum of x and y components. Draw a right triangle with x and y components as sides, and the hypotenuse representing the resultant. Calculate the magnitude of the resultant from the square root of (Rx2 + Ry2). Calculate the direction of the resultant by using θ R = tan-1 (Ry/Rx).arrow_forwardYou decide to play a trick on your friend using a giant water balloon as shown in the figure attached below. The balloon is dropped (no initial velocity) from a height of 42.79 meters. At the exact moment, you drop the balloon your friend throws a rock straight up to strike and burst the balloon before it lands. We will take the rock to be thrown with an initial velocity of 108 km/hr from an initial height of zero. Convert the rock's initial velocity into proper units. v0(rock) = ? meters/second Write an equation for the y of the balloon at any time. yballoon(t) = Write an equation for the y of the rock at any time. yrock(t) = Determine the time at which the rock and balloon collide. tcollision = ? seconds. NOTE: The equations you input should have all numbers, except for the letter t.

Draw arrows above the cart to show the direction of the velocity and the direction of the acceleration. Choose a coordinate system and include this in your picture. Draw a new picture of a cart rolling down a ramp. Draw arrows above the cart to show the direction of the velocity and the direction of the acceleration. Label your coordinate system. Sketch a graph of the instantaneous acceleration vs. time for the entire motion of the cart as it rolls up and then back down the track after an initial push. Label the instant where the cart reverses its motion near the top of the track. Explain your reasoning. Write down the equation(s) that best represents this graph. If there are constants in your equation, what kinematic quantities do they represent? How would you determine these constants from your graph?arrow_forward
