If you walk at a pace of 2 miles per hour for 5 hours, you should have walked 10 miles. You would be 2 miles away from your base camp.

Answer:

22 miles (North)        

Explanation:

Given:

velocity = 2 miles per hour (towards North)

Time taken = 5 hours

Displacement in 5 hours = velocity x time

                                        = ( 2 x 5 ) miles

                                        = 10 miles (North wards)

Initial displacement from the base of the camp = 12 miles (North wards)

Thus, location from the base camp after walking for 5 hours is:

12 miles + 10 miles = 22 miles

A ship leaves a harbor and sails at 23.5 ∘ to the north of due west. After traveling 575 km, how far west is the ship from the h
solniwko [45]

Answer:

D = 527.31 Km

Explanation:

given,

angle of ship, θ = 23.5° N of W

distance travel in the direction = 575 Km

Distance of ship in west from harbor = ?

now,

Distance of the ship in the west direction

D = d cos θ

d = 575 Km

θ = 23.5°

inserting all the values

D = 575 x cos 23.5°

D = 575 x 0.91706

D = 527.31 Km

Hence, the distance travel by the ship in west from harbor is equal to D = 527.31 Km

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

636.619772368 A

Explanation:

\tau = Torque = 1\times 10^{-3}\ N/m

B = Magnetic field of Earth = 5\times 10^{-5}\ T

A = Area

d = Diameter = 20 cm

Current is given by

I=\dfrac{\tau}{BA}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1\times 10^{-3}}{5\times 10^{-5}\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.2^2}\\\Rightarrow I=636.619772368\ A

The current is 636.619772368 A

Where is heat transferred by radiation in a lava lamp
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Explanation:

A lava lamp consists of oil, and wax in a glass, and a heat source (a light bulb) placed underneath the glass. When the lamp is turned on the bulb gets hot. As the bulb heats up some of the heat from the bulb is transferred to the glass by radiation.

Rita throws a ball straight up into the air and catches it at the
Kaylis [27]

(1) The potential energy at the top of the ball’s motion is 18 J.

(3) The kinetic energy increases as the potential energy decreases.

(4) The kinetic energy decreases as the potential energy increases.

(5) The total mechanical energy of the ball stays constant.

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of the ball is equal to the sum of its kinetic energy (K, energy due to the motion) and its potential energy (U, energy due to the height of the ball). Mathematically:

E=K+U

In absence of friction, the mechanical energy of the ball is conserved, so in this case, it is always equal to 18 J. Let's now use this information to analyze each of the given statements:

(1) The potential energy at the top of the ball’s motion is 18 J.  --> TRUE. In fact, at the top, the ball's speed becomes zero, so its kinetic energy is zero: K = 0. This means that all the mechanical energy of the ball is potential energy, therefore

E = U = 18 J

(2) The kinetic energy is less when the ball is thrown than when it is caught.   --> FALSE. As we said, in absence of friction, the mechanical energy is conserved, therefore it always remains equal to 18 J.

(3) The kinetic energy increases as the potential energy decreases.  --> TRUE. As we said, the sum of potential+kinetic energy remains constant:

E = K + U = 18 J

therefore, when the potential energy decreases, the kinetic energy increases.

(4)The kinetic energy decreases as the potential energy increases.  --> TRUE. For the same reason described in (3).

(5)The total mechanical energy of the ball stays constant.  --> TRUE. As we said at the beginning, the total mechanical energy is constant.

(6) The mechanical energy decreases as the ball moves up and increases as the ball comes down. --> FALSE. As we said, the mechanical energy remains constant, so it cannot change.
