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

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.

a sound wave is an example of a a. transverse wave. b. longitudinal wave. c. standing wave. d. surface wave
Leona [35]

Answer:  Longitudinal wave

Explanation:

Longitudinal wave are the oscillations that are parallel to the direction of energy transfer that means the vibrations are in line with the direction where the energy is travelling.

A key feature of sound wave is that they cause sound particles to vibrate. The region where the particles are close together are called compressions and regions where particles are further apart they are called rarefactions.  

The other options explanation:

-Transverse waves are where the oscillations are perpendicular to the energy of transfer.

-A standing wave is where the waves are travelling back and forth where there are some fixed points in the system whilst other vibrate with highest amplitude  

-Surface waves have both the characteristics of longitudinal and transverse waves

1. How much energy would be required to melt 450 grams of ice at 0°C?
xenn [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. The amount of heat needed to melt ice at 0°C is equal to the mass of the ice times the latent heat of fusion.

q = mL

q = (450 g) (334 J/g)

q = 150,300 J

q = 150 kJ

2. The amount of heat released by the condensation of steam at 100°C is equal to the mass of the steam times the latent heat of vaporization.

q = mL

q = (325 g) (2260 J/g)

q = 734,500 J

q = 735 kJ

3. q = mL

q = (85 g) (2260 J/g)

q = 192,100 J

q = 190 kJ

4. q = mL

q = (225 g) (334 J/g)

q = 75,150 J

q = 75.2 kJ

5. Above 100°C, water is steam.  The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of steam is equal to its mass times its specific heat times the change in temperature.

q = mCΔT

q = (20.0 g) (2.03 J/g/°C) (303.0°C − 283.0°C)

q = 812 J

6. q = mCΔT

q = (15.0 g) (2.03 J/g/°C) (250.0°C − 275.0°C)

q = -761 J

7. q = mCΔT

q = (10.0 g) (0.90 J/g/°C) (55°C − 22°C)

q = 297 J

8. q = mCΔT

198 J = (55.0 g) C (15°C)

C = 0.24 J/g/°C

9. q = mCΔT

41,840 J = m (4.184 J/g/°C) (28.5°C − 22.0°C)

m = 1540 g

10. q = mCΔT

q = (193 g) (2.46 J/g/°C) (35°C − 19°C)

q = 7600 J

11. First, the temperature of the ice must be raised to 0°C.

q = mCΔT

q = m (2.09 J/g/°C) (0°C − (-23.0°C))

q/m = 48.1 J/g

Next, the ice must be melted.

q = mL

q/m = 334 J/g

Then, the water must be heated to 100°C.

q = mCΔT

q = m (4.184 J/g/°C) (100°C − 0°C)

q/m = 418.4 J/g

The water is then vaporized.

q = mL

q/m = 2260 J/g

Finally, the steam is heated to its final temperature.

q = mCΔT

q = m (2.03 J/g/°C) (118°C − 100°C)

q/m = 36.5 J/g

So the total amount of energy needed is:

q/m = 48.1 J/g + 334 J/g + 418.4 J/g + 2260 J/g + 36.5 J/g

q/m = 3100 J/g

after a circuit has been turned off, so it is important to make sure they are discharged before you touch them. Suppose a 120 mF
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The time is 110.16\times10^{-3}\ sec

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitor = 120 μF

Voltage = 150 V

Resistance = 1.8 kΩ

Current = 50 mA

We need to calculate the discharge current

Using formula of discharge current

i_{0}=\dfrac{V_{0}}{R}

Put the value into the formula

i_{0}=\dfrac{150}{1.8\times10^{3}}

i_{0}=83.3\times10^{-3}\ A

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of current

i=\dfrac{V_{0}}{R}e^{\frac{-t}{RC}}

Put the value into the formula

50=\dfrac{150}{1.8\times10^{3}}e^{\frac{-t}{RC}}

\dfrac{50}{83.3}=e^{\frac{-t}{RC}}

\dfrac{-t}{RC}=ln(0.600)

t=0.51\times1.8\times10^{3}\times120\times10^{-6}

t=110.16\times10^{-3}\ sec

Hence, The time is 110.16\times10^{-3}\ sec
