Chapter 8.5, Problem 48E

Part E: Vectors MindBook decides to diversify their portfolio and invest in the "RoboMap" technology which is a robot that maps different types of territories. The new CEO is trying to make some drastic changes to some of the software and hardware systems in the new version of the robot. You have been hired by the opposing faction in the board to lead an investigation on how the performance of the robot is affected by the new proposed changes. a) The first system that you will test is the navigation system. The robot maps the territory by calculating distances and angles whilst moving between various locations. It then stores on its system the shortest direct path from initial location to the intended target. During the test the robot navigates around a muddy surface in the following path: 55cm [NW] and then moves 45cm [S30°W]. The robot sends back to the server the following overall shortest path: 70cm [W10°S]. Use triangle or parallelogram method to verify the precision of the…

A raindrop falls with acceleration 9.8 m/sec² , where "v" is its velocity. What is the raindrop's velocity? 29.4(1 – e3) m/sec 29.4(e- 1) m/sec 29.4(1 – e5) m/sec 32.2 (e- 1) m/sec

An electron moves with a constant horizontal velocity of 3.0 x 100 m/s and no initial vertical velocity as it enters a deflector inside a TV tube. The electron strikes the screen after traveling 17.0 cm horizontally and 40.0 cm vertically upward with no horizontal acceleration. What is the constant vertical acceleration provided by the deflector? (The effects of gravity can be ignored.) 1.4 x 10 m/s? 14 2.5 x 10 m/s2 14 1.2 x 10 m/s? 8.3 x 10 m/s?
