Buffalo, New York, and Raleigh, NC, lie approximately on the same meridian. Buffalo has a latitude of 42.9° N, and Raleigh has a

latitude of 35.8° N. Find the distance between these two cities. (The radius of the earth is 3960 mi. Round your answer to the nearest mile.)

Answer:

Distance will be =3960\times 0.12385=490.468miles

Explanation:

We have given that Buffalo has a latitude of 42.9°N

And Raleigh has a latitude of 35.8°N

Radius of the earth = 3960 miles

We have to calculate the distance between given two cities

Difference in their latitudes = 42.9-35.8=7.1^{\circ}

Now changing the angle in radian = 7.1\times\frac{\pi }{180}=0.12385radian

So distance will be =3960\times 0.12385=490.468miles

Suppose that a car starts from rest at t = 0. The car moves with an acceleration of 1.5 m/s2. How far will the car travel in 3.0
rodikova [14]

Answer:

6.75m

Explanation:

To calculate the distance in this question, we can use the formula:

S = ut + 1/2at^2

Where; S = distance

u = initial velocity = 0m/s

t = 3s

a = 1.5m/s^2

Hence:

S = (0 × 3) + 1/2 (1.5 × 3 × 3)

S = 0 + 1/2 (13.5)

S = 13.5/2

S = 6.75

Therefore, the car will travel 6.75m in 3seconds.

If vx = 0.40 meters/second and vy = 3.00 meters/second, what is the value of θ?
cestrela7 [59]
<span>θ  is the angle whose tangent is  3/0.4 = arctan (7.5) = 82.4°

(That's the angle above the horizontal.  If that doesn't match
the  </span><span>θ  in your diagram, too bad !  For some strange reason,
I wasn't able to see your diagram.)

Can an electron be found in an exact spot within an atom
jolli1 [7]
No, it is impossible to determine the exact location of an electron. This is because electrons don't have a definite position, and direction of motion, at the same time and its movements are unpredictable

One small speaker is placed 3m to the east of a second speaker, and a listener stands 4m directly south of one of the speakers.
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The value is \lambda  =  2 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The distance of the speaker  from the  second speaker  to the east is  d = 3 \  m

      The distance of the speaker  from the listener  to the south is     a = 4 \  m

Generally given that if the speaker move in any direction, their sound become  louder , it then mean that the position of the listener of minimum sound (i.e a position of minima ) ,

Generally the path difference of the sound produce by both speaker at a position of minima is mathematically represented as

              y =  \frac{\lambda}{2}

Generally considering the orientation  of the speakers and applying Pythagoras theorem we see that  distance from the second speaker to the listener  is mathematically represented as

             b =  \sqrt{d^ 2 + a^2 }

=>           b =  \sqrt{3^ 2 + 4^2 }

=>           b = 5

Generally the path difference between the two speaker with respect to the  listener is  

              y =  b - a

=>           y = 5 - 4

=>           y = 1

So  

              1 =  \frac{\lambda}{2}

=>           \lambda  =  2 \  m
