Liq sucks at physics. Don't know why anyone would ever want his help.

how did you get v2x = 20.5(cos32.7))liquidat0r wrote:

Hopefully you can read/decipher my writing/working.
Would type it out and make it look nicer and easier to follow but I don't have time.

The v's with subscripts are meant to be like these:
v1y = Initial velocity in y direction.
v1x = Initial velocity in x direction.
v2y = Final velocity in y direction.
v2x = Final velocity in x direction.
(Same goes for the Forces (F) and accelerations (a).

(a) In what direction should you head? (in degrees)liquidat0r wrote:

What are you actually supposed to find? Note that my theta probably isn't the answer, it'll be 90 minus theta, or something ... probably.

I'm having some problems on figuring out the direction. I'm used tan-1(fy/fx) which would be tan-1(15.39/23.98) right?liquidat0r wrote:

okay well I found what direction to head which I did by cos-1(0.5/1.6) = 71.790043. Then I subtracted 71.790043 by 90 degrees and got 18.20, which is the correct answer. But I still can't figure out How long will it take you to cross the river. I started to use the width of the river/vy where vy=vrow(sin[x]), x is the angle with horizontal, but I can't seem to plug the right numbers in.liquidat0r wrote:

Looks like it'd be a hell of a lot simpler if you used unit vectors 1st then worked it out from there.TheunforgivenII wrote:

I already got the answer...all I had to do was cos(18.20)(1.6) = 1.52 and then took 50/1.52 and got 32.89presidentsheep wrote:

guess everybody is tired of working on physics, especially me, but still need the help, lolTheunforgivenII wrote:
1) A 2.50 kg object is moving along the x axis at 1.60 m/s. As it passes the origin, two forces F1 and F2 are applied, both in the y direction (plus or minus). F1 = 20 j N. The forces are applied for 3.00 s, after which the object is at the point x = 4.80 m, y = 10.8 m. Find F2.
I got one last problem but I don't know where to start

I'm too tired at the mo to type out the answer, but here's what you need to do - take the force (F1) given and work out where the object would end up, after 3 seconds, if only that force had been applied to it - subtract the given y from the y part of position just calculated - from that you can than work out the force required to move the object that distance in 3s.TheunforgivenII wrote:

i'll look it over and check every step. Thanks for the help!!presidentsheep wrote:

First you can ignore the x values as nothings happening along that axis (proven by 1.6m/s * 3s = 4.80m it's finish co-ordinates)
y axis time.
Next...
finding the acceleration given by F1 by using F=ma
20N=2.5a
so a=8ms-2
Its co-ordinates found on the y axis due to this force can now be found:
s=ut+1/2at2
as the initial velocity is 0 the "ut" part can be ignored leaving: s=1/2at[sup2[/sup]
plugging in the values for the force f1
s=1/2 (8) * (3)2
s=4 * 9
s=36m
This shows that the other force f2 has to be in the other direction as the value 36 is greater than the 10.8 its at at that point.
Soooo finding out the resultant displacement it has to produce on the same block would be done by
10.8 + ? = 36
? = 25.2
Again using s=1/2at2 (ignoring ut as u=0)
25.2=1/2 a 32
25.2=4.5a
a= 5.6ms-2
and using F=ma
F=3 * 5.6
F=14N
F2 = 14N in the opposite direction to F1
I think, though I have a feeling I went wrong somewhere or left something out cos im tiiiiiiiired... xD

In which case, fuck you. I have no need to write neatly. If I did, I would.
