From the front door to his current position, Aaron's Distance is 4m. and his Displacement is 4m.

Distance is a measure of how far apart two objects or locations are using numbers. The distance can refer to a physical length in physics or to an estimate based on other factors in common usage. Sometimes, the symbol |AB| is used to represent the distance between two points.

A displacement is a vector in geometry and mechanics that have a length equal to the shortest distance between a point P's initial and final positions.

Given,

Length of path  = 4m

Distance  =?

Displacement  =?

Distance is the length of the path and it has magnitude but no direction. The distance covered is 4m Displacement is the length of the path and it has magnitude and direction. Displacement is 4m towards the mailbox.

Answer:

x=2.4365\ m

and

x=-1.4365\ m

Explanation:

Given:

  • first charge, q_1=5\times 10^{-3}\ C
  • second charge, q_2=3\times 10^{-3}\ C
  • position of first charge, x_1=-2\ m
  • position of second charge, x_2=-1\ m

Now since there are only 2 charges and of the same sign so they repel each other. This repulsion will be zero at some point on the line joining the charges.

<u>Now, according to the condition, electric field will be zero where the effects of field due to both the charges is equal.</u>

E_1=E_2

  • since first charge is greater than the second charge so we may get a point to the right of the second charge and the distance between the two charges is 1 meter.

\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \frac{q_1}{(r+1)^2} =\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \frac{q_2}{(r)^2}

\frac{5\times 10^{-3}}{(r+1)^2} = \frac{3\times 10^{-3}}{(r)^2}

3(r^2+1+2r)=5r^2

2r^2-6r-3=0

r=3.4365 \&\ r=-0.4365

Since we have assumed that the we may get a point to the right of second charge so we calculate with respect to the origin.

x=-1+3.4365=2.4365\ m

and

x=-1-0.4365=-1.4365\ m

Name five characteristics of a star that can be determined by measuring its spectrum. Explain how you would use a spectrum to de
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Chemical composition, Temperature, Radial velocity, Size or diameter of the star, Rotation.

Explanation:  

Elemental abundances are determined by analyzing the relative strengths of the absorption lines in the spectrum of a star.

The Spectral class to which the star belongs gives the information related to the temperature of the star. It is the spectral lines that determine the spectral class O B A F G K M are the spectral classes.

By measuring the wavelengths of the lines in the star's spectrum gives the radial velocity. Doppler shift is the method used to find the radial velocity.

A star can be classified as a giant or a dwarf . A giant star will have narrow width spectral lines whereas a dwarf star has wider spectral lines.

Broadening of the spectral lines will determine the star's rotation.
