What is your displacement if you walk 100 m north, 20 m east, 30 m south, 50 m west, and then 70 m south?

1 answer:

4 0

Displacement isn't total distance traveled, it's the distance from the original starting point. So the 70 meters South in addition to the 30 meters South would decrease the distance to the North. It would then, instead of being 100 meters North and 100 meters South, there would be zero displacement. Then you take 50-20 to get 30 meters West. Your final displacement is 30 meters.

What is the relationship between karst development and topography?

mylen [45]

The karst topography is typically defined as a geographic location characterized by a rugged terrain containing landscapes like underground rivers, fissures, and cracks. It is mainly due to the dissolution of the bedrock due to a much heavier precipitation taking place in the geographic location.

The magnetic coils of a tokamak fusion reactor are in the shape of a toroid having an inner radius of 0.700 m and an outer radiu

iragen [17]

Answer:

(a) 11.3 T

(b) 6.09 T

Explanation:

Current, I = 14 kA = 14000 A

number of turns, N = 900

inner radius, r = 0.7 m

outer radius, R = 1.3 m

The magnetic field due to a circular coil is given by

$B = \frac{\mu o}{4\pi}\times \frac{2 N\pi I}{R}$

(a) The magnetic field due to the inner radius is

$B = 10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times 900\times 3.14\times 14000}{0.7}\\\\B = 11.3 T$

(b) The magnetic field due to the outer radius is

$B = 10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times 900\times 3.14\times 14000}{1.3}\\\\B = 6.09 T$
