Distance is 50 km

Displacement is 10 km

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Distance toward south, x = 25 km

Distance towards west, y = 10 km

Distance towards north, z = 15 km

(a) Total distance, D = ?

Total distance, D = x + y + z

                       D = 25 + 10 + 15

                       D = 50km

(b) Displacement, d = ?

Displacement = final position - initial position

                      = 10 - 0 km

                      = 10km

If the caffeine concentration in a particular brand of soda is 2.97 mg/oz, 2.97 mg/oz, drinking how many cans of soda would be l
Ray Of Light [21]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     Concentration of caffeine = 2.97 mg/oz

     Number of oz in a can = 12 oz

Therefore, the concentration of caffeine in one can is calculated as follows.

                 = (12 \times 2.97) mg

                 = 35.64 mg

                 = 35.64 \times 10^{-3} g

Since, it is given that lethal dose is 10.0 g. Hence, number of cans are calculated as follows.

     No. of cans = \frac{\text{Lethal dose}}{\text{concentration in one can}}

                         = \frac{10 g}{35.64 \times 10^{-3} g}

                         = 280.58

                         = 281 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that 281 cans of soda would be lethal.

A boat is towing two skiers at the same time. how long should the tow lines be?
BigorU [14]
The tow lines for the two skiers must be of the same length. No matter the number of skiers towed, the length of the tow lines must be the same. Towing people on ski requires additional skills and some safety precautions must be taken. Most importantly, it is dangerous and illegal to tow at night.

An ambulance is traveling east at 61.9 m/s. Behind it there is a car traveling along the same direction at 28.5 m/s. The ambulan
inessss [21]

Answer: 0.4 m

Explanation:

Given

Speed of ambulance, vs = 61.9 m/s

Speed of car = 28.5 m/s

Frequency of ambulance siren, f = 694 Hz

Velocity of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

With speed of ambulance being (61.9 m/s) -> We solve using

fd = f(v + vr) / (v - vs), where vr = 0

fd = 694 * (343 + 0) / (343 - 61.9)

fd = 694 * (343 / 281.1)

fd = 694 * 1.22

fd = 847 Hz

Recall,

λ = v/f

λ = 343/847

λ = 0.4 m

Therefore, the wavelength of the sound of the ambulance’s siren if you are standing at the position of the car is 0.4 m
