- Considering that the consecutive dials on the natural gas meter rotate in opposite directions, what is the current reading in cubic feet of usage? The initial direction is clockwise.arrow_forwardA hollow steel ball weighing 4 pounds is suspended from a spring. This stretches the spring 13 feet. The ball is started in motion from the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 4 feet per second. The air resistance (in pounds) of the moving ball numerically equals 4 times its velocity (in feet per second) . Suppose that after t seconds the ball is y feet below its rest position. Find y in terms of t. (Note that the positive direction is down.) Take as the gravitational acceleration 32 feet per second per second.arrow_forward(2) Solve the following as systematically as possible. Show your complete solutions.arrow_forward

Then find the true SPEED of the airplane.arrow_forwardTwo construction workers are lifting a beam using ropes. Worker A pulls with a force of 500 newtons at an angle of 40°with the positive x-axis. Worker B is on the opposite side pulling with a force of 380 newtons at an angle of 115 ° with the positive x- axis. Find the (a) magnitude and (b) direction angle of the resultant force.

Find its magnitude and determine if the vector is a unit vector. 4. The position vector for (cos(e)., sin (e)) for any angle 0. 5. The vector v = (-8,-3) starts at the point P= (8,2). At what point does the vector end? 6. The vector = (4,-2,1) ends at the point P = (7,-7,2). At what point does the vector start?arrow_forwardThe minute hand of a wall clock measures 24 cm from its tip to the axis about which it rotates. The magnitude and angle of the displacement vector of the tip are to be determined for three time intervals. What are the magnitude and angle from a quarter after the hour to half past, the magnitude and angle for the next half hour, and the magnitude and angle for the hour after that? (Use a coordinate system with the origin at the clock center, +x rightward toward the "3:00" position, and +y upward toward the "12:00" position.)

Two traffic cops are sitting stationary at positions ri = At t = 0, a car is at the origin with instantaneous velocity v. At that time, officers 1 and 2 measure line-of-sight speeds vi and v2 on their radar guns. Determine the car's velocity v at t = 0. î+j and r2 = -j, respectively.arrow_forward#10arrow_forwardA cottage in Boracay is 12m long, 8 wide and 3m high. A naughty cockroach starts in the floor at one corner. The cockroach ends at the diagonally opposite corner. (a) Write the correct vector expression for its displacement.
