The displacement of Edward in the westerly direction is determined as 338.32 km.

<h3>What is displacement of Edward?</h3>

The displacement of Edward can be determined from different methods of vector addition. The method applied here is triangular method.

The angle between the 200 km north west and 150 km west = 60 + 90 = 150⁰

The displacement is the side of the triangle facing 150⁰ = R

R² = a² + b² - 2abcosR

R² = 150² + 200²  - (2x 150 x 200)xcos(150)

R² = 62,500 - (-51,961.52)

R² = 114,461.52

R = 338.32 km

Suppose a 1300 kg car is traveling around a circular curve in a road at a constant
Scrat [10]

Answer:

F = 4212 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a car, m = 1300 kg

Speed of car on the road is 9 m/s

Radius of curve, r = 25 m

We need to find the magnitude of the unbalanced force that steers the car out of its natural straight-  line path. The force is called centripetal force. It can be given by :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\\F=\dfrac{1300\times 9^2}{25}\\\\F=4212\ N

So, the force has a magnitude of 4212 N

xeze [42]

Answer: You do not specify what is being asked for. ∆E? ∆H?

∆E = (430 - 238) J = 192 J

∆H = 430 J

Explanation:

If asked for the value of ∆H the answer is simply the change in heat, and in the question, it states introduction of 430 J of heat is causing the system to expand.

Therefore ∆H = 430 J

If asked for ∆E, we know that ∆E = ±q (heat) + work (-P∆V) = ±q + w

The question states that 238 J of work are done AND the system expanded

(work is negative because expansion means work is done BY the system, releasing energy/heat... Conversely, if the system were compressed, work is done ON the system, absorbing heat/energy)

Therefore, ∆E = (430 - 238) J = 192 J
