Sample Question of the Day

Short answer📘 N.VM.A.3🧠 DOK 1

Question:

A car is traveling north at a speed of 30 miles per hour. Another car is traveling east at a speed of 40 miles per hour. Assuming these are vector quantities, calculate the magnitude of the resultant velocity of the two cars.

✅ Answer:
The magnitude of the resultant velocity is 50 miles per hour.

💡 Explanation:

  • To find the magnitude of the resultant vector when two vectors are perpendicular, use the Pythagorean theorem: (302+402)=(900+1600)=2500=50\sqrt{(30^2 + 40^2)} = \sqrt{(900 + 1600)} = \sqrt{2500} = 50.

  • Thus, the magnitude of the resultant velocity is 50 miles per hour.
