Answer: Hello mate!

lets define the north as the y-axis and east as the x-axis.

Using the notation (x,y) we can define the initial position of the car as (0,0)

then the car travells 13 mi east, so now the position is (13,0)

then the car travels Y miles to the north, so the position now is (13, Y)

and we know that the final position is 25° degrees north of east of the initial position. This angle says that the distance traveled to the north is less than 13 mi because this angle is closer to the x-axis (or east in this case).

This angle is measured from east to north, then the adjacent cathetus is on the x-axis, in this case, 13mi

And we want to find the distance Y, so we can use the tangent:

Tan(25°) = Y/13  

tan(25°)*13 mi = Y = 6.06 mi.

Satellite A has an orbital radius 3.00 times greater than that of satellite B. Satellite B's orbital period around Earth is 120
igomit [66]

Answer:

To find the circumference (orbit) of an object, you use Pi x Diameter. 

As you have the circumference of B, you divide it by Pi to get the Diameter. 

So 120 divided by 3.141592654 = 38.2 minutes for the Diameter. 

As' radius and Diameter will be 3x greater than B. 

38.2 x 3 = 114.6 

To get back to the orbital period, times 114.6 by Pi, and you will get 360 minutes

A bus travels north on some busy city streets for 2.5 km, and a trip
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

V = 4.63 m/s

V = 11.31 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

The distance traveled by the bus, towards north, d = 2.5 km

                                                                                     = 2500 m

The time taken by the trip is, t = 9 min

                                                  = 540 s

The velocity of the bus,

                                       V = d / t

                                           = 2500 / 540

                                          = 4.63 m/s

At another  point, the bus travels at a constant speed of v = 18 m/s

Therefore the velocity becomes

                                                V = (4.63 + 18)/2

                                                   = 11.31 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the  bus, V = 11.31 m/s

Does a neutrally charged object even have a charge?
Roman55 [17]
“Charged objects have an imbalance of charge - either more negative electrons than positive protons or vice versa. And neutral objects have a balance of charge - equal numbers of protons and electrons. The principle stated earlier for atoms can be applied to objects. Objects with more electrons than protons are charged negatively; objects with fewer electrons than protons are charged positively.

In this discussion of electrically charged versus electrically neutral objects, the neutron has been neglected. Neutrons, being electrically neutral play no role in this unit. Their presence (or absence) will have no direct bearing upon whether an object is charged or uncharged. Their role in the atom is merely to provide stability to the nucleus.”

Hope this helps a bit.

When a 10 V battery is connected to a resistor, 5 A of current flows through the resistor. What is the resistor's value?
SashulF [63]

Given data

*The value of battery voltage is V = 10 V

*The current flows through the resistor is I = 5 A

The formula for the resistor is given by the Ohm's law as

R=\frac{V}{I}

Substitute the values in the above expression as

\begin{gathered} R=\frac{10}{5} \\ =2\text{ ohm} \end{gathered}

The forces in (Figure 1) are acting on a 1.0 kg object.What is ax , the x -component of the object's acceleration
a_sh-v [17]

The x -component of the object's acceleration is 2 m/s².

<h3>What's the resultant force along x- direction?</h3>
  • Forces along x axis direction are as follows
  1. 4N along +x axis, so it's taken as +4 N
  2. 2N along -x axis , so it's taken as -2N.
  • Resultant force along x direction = 4N - 2N = 2 N which is along + ve x direction.

<h3>What's the acceleration along x axis direction?</h3>
  • As per Newton's second law, Force = mass × acceleration of the object
  • Force along x axis= mass × acceleration along x axis= 2N
  • Acceleration = 2/ mass = 2/1 = 2 m/s²

Thus, we can conclude that the acceleration along x axis is 2 m/s².
