Answer:

Explanation:

The displacement is the distnce of the shopper from the starting point.

Sum of movement along the vertical = 40-20 = 20m

Movement along the horizontal (x direction) = 15.0m

Displacement will be gotten using the pythagoras theorem.

d = √20²+ 15²

d = √400+225

d = √625

d = 25.0m

Hence the shoppers total displacement is 25.0m

What os the term for the smallest bit into which chemical substance can be divided and still have the properties of that substan
Ostrovityanka [42]

That's a molecule of the substance.  You can break the molecule down further, into the atoms that make it up, but those don't have the properties of the original  'compound'.

Here's an example:

-- Sodium is a soft, slippery metal, that explodes when water touches it.

-- Chlorine is a poisonous green gas.

When an atom of Sodium and an atom of Chlorine combine, they make one molecule of a substance called "Sodium Chloride".  That's SALT !  It isn't green, it isn't a gas, it isn't poisonous, it isn't soft and slippery, and it doesn't explode when water touches it.

How can citizen -scientists help with the prediction of future earthquakes
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Avoid downed power lines and stay away from buildings and bridges from which heavy objects might fall during an aftershock. Stay away until local officials tell you it is safe. A tsunami is a series of waves that may continue for hours. Do not assume that after one wave the danger is over.

A 70 ft rope hangs from a helicopter above this room. The rope has a mass per unit length of 2 lb/ft. In order to be rescued fro
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The work done to get you safely away from the test is  2.47 X 10⁴ J.

Explanation:

Given;

length of the rope, L = 70 ft

mass per unit length of the rope, μ = 2 lb/ft

your mass, W = 120 lbs

mass of the 70 ft rope  = 2 lb/ft x 70 ft

                                         = 140 lbs.

Total mass to be pulled to the helicopter, M = 120 lbs  + 140 lbs  

                                                                       = 260 lbs

The work done is calculated from work-energy theorem as follows;

W = Mgh

where;

g is acceleration due gravity = 32.17 ft/s²

h is height the total mass is raised = length of the rope = 70 ft

W = 260 Lb x 32.17 ft/s²  x 70 ft

W = 585494 lb.ft²/s²

1 lb.ft²/s² = 0.0421 J

W = 585494 lb.ft²/s²  = 2.47 X 10⁴ J.

Therefore, the work done to get you safely away from the test is  2.47 X 10⁴ J.

a truck was traveling at 16.6 miles per second and accelerates at a rate of 2.0 meters per second squared how much time is requi
Ivan

A truck was traveling at 16.6 miles per second and accelerates at a rate of 2.0 meters per second squared then time is required for the truck to reach a speed of 25 miles per second is 6759 s.

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the rate of change in displacement while acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. Acceleration may be positive or negative. Acceleration is positive when the velocity of the object is increases and it is negative when velocity of the object is decreases. Negative acceleration is also called deceleration.

Mathematically

a = \frac{(v_{f} - v_{i})}{t}

Where a is the acceleration of the object, v_{f} is the final velocity of the object and  v_{i} is the initial velocity of the object. t is equal to time taken.

Given data:

v_{f} = 25 miles/s

v_{i} = 16.6 miles/s

a = 2.0 m/s²

t = ?

As velocities and acceleration given in different units, So we need to convert to obtain same units. Here we convert unit of acceleration  from m/s² to miles/s².

1 m/s² = 0.000621371192 miles/s²

2 m/s² = 0.00124274238 miles/s²

So,

a = 0.00124274238 miles/s²

Apply formula

a =\frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t}

t = \frac{(v_{f} - v_{i})}{a}

t = \frac{(25 - 16.6)}{0.00124274238}

t = 6759 s
