2) A car travels 5 miles north, and then 10 miles south. What is the person's DISTANCE and
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

distance traveled is 15 mi

displacement is 5 mi

Explanation:

Distance takes time into account and adds up all the tiny displacements during the entire period of the trip.

Displacement ignores time and looks only at the change in position from the starting point to the ending point.

Explain how a star's absorption spectrum and the concept of red shift help support the Big Bang Theory.
marta [7]

Answer:

Red shift supports the big bang theory. ... The light from distant galaxies is red shifted (this tells us the galaxies are moving away from us) and the further away the galaxy the greater the red shift (this tells us that the more distant the galaxy the faster it is moving). Constellations look like they are moving because earth is rotating on it's axis.

Tectonic plates move due to _____ forces.
wel
<span>Tectonic plates move because they are floating on top of the liquid mantle. The mantle itself moves due to convection currents: hot rock rises, gives off some heat, then falls. This creates vast swirls of moving liquid rock under the crust of the earth, which jostles the plates of crust on top.

You’ve made the finals of the science Olympics. As one of your tasks you’re given 1.0 g of copper and asked to make a cylindrica
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Length = 2.92 m

Diameter = 0.11 mm

Explanation:

We have m = dl D \ \ \& \ \ \ R = \frac{\rho l}{A} , where:

l is the length

m = 1.0 g = 1 \times 10^{-3} \ kg\\R = 1.3 \ \Omega\\\rho = 1.7 \times 10^{-8} \Omega m\\d = 8.96 \ g/cm^3 = 8960 kg/m^3

We divide the first equation by the second equation to get:

\frac{m}{R} = \frac{d A^2}{\rho}

A^2 = \frac{m \rho}{dR} \\\\A^2 = \frac { 1 \times 10^{-3} \times 1.7 \times 10^{-8}}{8960 \times 1.3}\\\\A^2 = 1.5 \times 10^{-15}\\\\ A= 3.8 \times 10^{-8}   \ m^2

Using this Area, we find the diameter of the wire:

D = \sqrt{\frac{4A}{\pi}}

D = \sqrt{\frac{4 \times 3.8 \times 10^{-8} }{\pi}}

D = 0.00011 \ m = 1.1 \times 10^ {-4} = 0.11 \ mm

To find the length, we multiply the two equations stated initially:

mR = d\rho l^2\\\\l^2 = \frac{mR}{d\rho} \\\l^2 = \frac {1.0 \times 10^{-3} \times 1.3}{8960 \times 1.7\times 10^{-8}}

l^2 = 8.534\\l =   2.92 \ m
