At the end of the walk, the person's resultant displacement is 495.1 m at 63⁰ south of west.

<h3>What is resultant displacement?</h3>

The resultant displacement of an object is the change in position of the object. It can be described as the shortest distance connecting the final position of the object to the initial position of the object.

<h3>Net horizontal displacement </h3>

Path 1 = 40 m

Path 2 = 0 m

Path 3 = 110 m x cos(30) = 95.26 m

Path 4 = 180 m x cos(60) = 90 m

Total horizontal displacement, X = 40 m + 0 m + 95.26 m + 90 m = 225.26 m

<h3>Net vertical displacement </h3>

Path 1 = 0 m

Path 2 = 230 m

Path 3 = 110 m x sin(30) = 55 m

Path 4 = 180 m x sin(60) = 155.885 m

Total horizontal displacement, Y = 0 m + 230 m + 55 m + 155.885 m = 440.885 m

<h3>Resultant displacement</h3>

R = √(X² + Y²)

R = √(225.26² + 440.885²)

R = 495.1 m

<h3>Direction of the displacement</h3>

θ = arc tan (Y/X)

θ = arc tan (440.885/225.26)

θ =  63⁰

Thus, at the end of the walk, the person's resultant displacement is 495.1 m at 63⁰ south of west.

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

New pressure of the gas increases by 26.5% with respect to initial pressure, new volume decreases 27% with respect to initial volume and new temperature decreases 8% with respect to initial volume.

Explanation:

If we assume the gas is a perfect gas we can use the perfect gas equation:

PV=nRT

  • For Isothermal process:

\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}(1)

Where subscripts 1 shows before the isothermal process and 2 after it, because isothermal means constant temperature T1=T2, and pressure increases by 10% means P2=1,1*P1, using these facts on (1) we have:

V_{2}=\frac{V_{1}}{1.1} (2)

  • For Isobaric process:

\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}=\frac{P_{3}V_{3}}{T_{3}} (3)

Where subscripts 2 shows before the isobaric process and 3 after it, because isobaric means constant pressure P2=P3, and volume decreases by 20% means V3=0.8*V2, using these facts on (3) we have:

T_{3}=0.8T_{2} (4)

  • For Isochoric process:

\frac{P_{3}V_{3}}{T_{3}}=\frac{P_{4}V_{4}}{T_{4}} (5)

Where subscripts 3 shows before the isochoric process and 4 after it, because isochoric means constant volume V3=V4, and temperature increases by 15% means T4=1.15*T3, using these facts on (5) we have:

P_{4}=1.15P_{3} (6)

So now because P4=1.15*P3, P2=P3 and P2=1.1*P1:

P_{4}=1.15*1.1P_{1}=1.265P1

This is, the new pressure of the gas increases by 26.5%  with respect to initial pressure.

Similarly, we have V3=V4, V3=0.8*V2 and V1=1,1*V2:

V_{4}=\frac{0.8}{1.1}V_{1}=0.72V1

so the final volume decreases 27% with respect to initial volume.

T4=1,15*T3, T3=0.8*T2 and T1=T2:

T_{4}=1.15*0.8T_{1}=0.92T1

The new temperature decreases 8% with respect to initial volume.

A football is kicked from the ground with a speed of 16.71 m/s at an angle of 49.21 degrees. What is the vertical component of t
Svetllana [295]

If a football is kicked from the ground with a speed of 16.71 m/s at an angle of 49.21 degrees, then the vertical component of the initial velocity would be 12.65 m/s

<h3>What is Velocity?</h3>

The total displacement covered by any object per unit of time is known as velocity. It depends on the magnitude as well as the direction of the moving object. The unit of velocity is meter/second.

As given in the problem A football is kicked from the ground with a speed of 16.71 m/s at an angle of 49.21 degrees

The horizontal component of the velocity is given by

Vx = Vcosθ

The vertical component of the velocity is given by

Vy = Vsinθ

As we have to find the vertical component of the velocity given that speed of 16.71 m/s at an angle of 49.21 degrees from the ground

Vy = 16.71 × sin49.21°

Vy = 12.65 m/s

Thus, the vertical component of the velocity would be 12.65 m/s

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

q=49Q/64

and

x =16R/15

Explanation:

See  attached figure.

E_{Q}= E due to sphere

E_{q}= E due to particule

E_{total}=E_{Q}-E_{q}=0  (1)

according to the law of gauss and superposition Law:

E_{Q}=E_{1}+E_{2}=E_{2} ; electric field due to the small sphere with r1=R/4

E_{Q}=kq_{2}/(r_{1}^{2})=

q_{2}=density*4/3*pi*r_{1}^{3}=Q/(4/3*pi*R^{3})*4/3*pi*r_{1}^{3}=Q*r_{1}^{3}/R^{3}

then: E_{Q}=kq_{2}/(r_{1}^{2})=k*Q*r_{1}^{3}/(R^{3}*r_{1}^{2}) = kQ/(4*R^{2})  (2)

on the other hand, for the particule:

E_{q}=kq/(r_{p}^{2})

r_{p}=2R-R/4=7R/4   ⇒    E_{q}=16kq/(49R^{2})   (3)

We replace (2) y (3) in (1):

E_{total}=E_{Q}-E_{q}=0=kQ/(4*R^{2}) - 49kq/(16R^{2})

q=49Q/64

--------------------

if R<x<2R   AND E_{total}=E_{Q}-E_{q}=0

E_{total}=E_{Q}-E_{q}=0=kQ/(x^{2}) - kq/(2R-x^{2})

remember that  q=49Q/64

then:

Q(2R-x^{2})=49/64*x^{2}

solving:

x_{1} =16R/15

x_{2} =16R

but: R<x<2R  

so : x =16R/15
