For this calculation, we apply our understanding of trigonometric functions related to a right triangle in order to determine the x and y components of the walk. We perform the following steps:

sin 60 = ax / 9.4
ax = 8.14

cos 60 = ay / 9.4
ay = 4.7

Sav [3153]

Answer:

B. Truck X was ahead, not truck Y.

Explanation:

Let's analyze the information provided.

Truck X moved from the point (0,20) to (2.8,50). This indicates that it began at the 20th kilometer and reached 50 km in 2.8 hours. Thus, its speed is v1 = (s2 - s1) / t

v1 = (50 - 20) / 2.8

v1 = 10.7 km/h

Given that it started from the 20th km, it indeed had a head start. Since the line on the graph is linear, this shows its speed was constant without any change in direction.

On the other hand, Truck Y's movement went from the origin (0,0) to (5,20), meaning it took 5 hours to travel 20 km, resulting in a speed of v2 = 20 / 5

v2 = 4 km/h

Again, the straightness of its graph line signifies it maintained a constant speed in a single direction.

Thus, it is evident that Rosa erred in her assumption that Truck Y had a head start.

At a location where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.807 m/s2, the atmospheric pressure is 9.891 × 104 Pa. A barometer at th
serg [3582]

Answer:

8616.7468 \ kg/m^3

Explanation:

The measurement of pressure is indicated as p=\rho gh where p denotes the pressure, \rho signifies density, and h represents height

Given values include pressure p=9.891\times 10^4\ Pa, gravity's acceleration g=9.9870\ m/sec^2, and height =1.163 m

\rho =\frac{p}{gh}=\frac{9.891\times 10^4}{9.870\times 1.163}=8616.7468 \ kg/m^3
