An observer in frame S standing at the origin observes twoflashes of coloredlight separated spatially by Îx=2400 m. A redflash occurs first followed by a blue flash 6Î¼s later. An observerin S' moving along x axis at speed v relative to S also observestwo flashes, but the blue flash occurs 6Î¼s before the red. What isthe magnitude and direction of v?

An observer in frame S standing at the origin observestwo flashes of colored light separated spacially by Îx = 1700 m. A blue flash occurs first, followedby a red flash 8 Âµs later. Anobserver in S ' moving along the x axis at speedv relative to S also observes the flashes8 Âµs apart and with aseparation of 1700 m, but thered flash is observed first. Find the magnitude and direction ofv.

This print-out should have 15 questions. Multiple-choice questions may continue on the next column or page - find all choices before answering. Two vectors A and B lie in the xy plane and are given by A = Ax i + Ay j B = Bx i + By j, where Ax = 3.58 m, Ay = 2.85 m, Bx = 7.09 m, By = -6.36 m. Find the magnitude of R = A + B. Answer in units of m Find the angle theta (between -180 degree and + 180 degree with counterclockwise positive) that the vector R makes from the positive x axis. Answer in units of degree When the Sun is directly overhead, a hawk dives toward the ground at a speed of 7.23 m/s. If the direction of his motion is at an angle of 39.8 below the horizontal, calculate the speed of his shadow along the ground. Answer in units of m/s Vector A has a magnitude of 10 and points in the positive x-direction, Vector B has a magnitude of 17 and makes an angle of 32 degree with the positive x-axis. What is the magnitude of A - B? An airplane starting from airport A (lies 342 km east, then 531 km at 62.2 degree west of north, and then 778 km north to arrive finally at airport B. The next day, another plane flies directly from A to B in a straight line. In what direction should the pilot trawl in this direct flight? Use counterclockwise its the positive angular direction from due east, between the limits of - 180 degree ami 180 degree . Assume there is no wind during these flights. Answer in units of degree How far will the pilot travel in this direct flight? Answer in units of km A projectile is fired straight upward at 126 m/s. How fast is it moving at the instant it reaches the top of its trajectory? Answer in units of m/s How fast is it moving at the instant it reaches the top of its trajectory if the projectile is fired upward at 12 degree from the horizontal? Answer in units of m/s At one instant the velocity of a particle is and a very short time later its velocity has changed to . Qualitatively, what was the direction of the particle's acceleration during the interval between the first and second instance?
