If an object moves 40 m north, 40 m west, 40 m south, and 40 m east, what's the total displacement?

The displacement of the object is 0, because the object ends up in back in its starting position. The 40 m north and 40 m south will cancel out. Similarly, the 40 m west and 40 m east will cancel out. Even though the object did travel, it ended up in the same position at the end of its journey as it was in its beginning position. That is why the objects displacement is 0 m

What derived unit is used to measure the slope of the line in this graph?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

g/cm³

Explanation:

From the question given above,

The y-axis is representing mass (g)

The x-axis is representing volume (cm³)

Unit of slope =?

Slope of a graph is simply defined as the change in y-axis divided by the change in x-axis. Mathematically it is expressed as:

Slope = change in y-axis (Δy)/change in x-axis (Δx)

Slope = Δy/Δx

Thus, with the above formula, we can obtain the unit used for measuring the slope as follow:

y-axis = mass (g)

x-axis = volume (cm³)

Slope =.?

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = mass (g) /volume (cm³)

Slope = g/cm³

Therefore, the derive unit used for measuring the slope is g/cm³

A 40W lamp wastes 34 J of energy every second by heating its surroundings.
Artemon [7]

Answer:

15\%.

Explanation:

The efficiency of a machine is the percentage of energy input that was turned into useful energy.

The power rating of this lamp is 40\; \rm W (same as 40\; \rm J \cdot s^{-1},) meaning that 40\; \rm J of energy is supplied to this lamp every second.

The question states that 34\; \rm J out of that 40\; \rm J of energy input would be turned into heat, which is not useful energy output in this scenario. Assuming that all other forms of energy loss is negligible. The rest of the (40\; \rm J - 34\; \rm J) = 6\; \rm J of energy supplied to this lamp would be turned into useful energy output.

Thus, every second, this lamp would receive 40\; \rm J of energy input and would outputs 6\; \rm J of useful work. The efficiency of this lamp would be:

\begin{aligned}& \text{Efficiency} \\ =\; & \frac{\text{Useful energy out}}{\text{Total energy in}} \times 100\% \\ =\; & \frac{6\; \rm J}{40\; \rm J} \times 100\%\\ =\; &15\% \end{aligned}.

Thoughts about Genetically Modified Crops
Alex787 [66]
I think that GMOs, also known as genetically modified crops or organisms, can be used in good and bad ways. They can provide crops to survive longer, and produce a bigger portion. However, on the other side of that, it is claimed that it creates a large amount of greenhouse gas emissions, which can turn into climate change.

A rotating fan completes 1200 revolutions every minute. Consider the tip of a blade, at a radius of 0.15 m. (a) Through what dis
olga55 [171]

Answer:

(a) 0.942 m

(b) 18.84 m/s

(c) 2366.3 m/s²

(d) 0.05 s

Explanation:

(a) In one revolution, it travels through one circumference, 2πr = 2 × 3.14 × 0.15 m = 0.942 m.

(b) Its frequency, f, is 1200 rev/min = \dfrac{1200}{60}rev/s = 20 rev/s.

Its angular frequency, ω = 2πf = 2π × 20 = 40π

The speed is given by

v = ωr = 40π × 0.15 = 6π = 18.84 m/s

(c) Its acceleration is given by, a = ω²r = (40π)² × 0.15 = 2366.3 m/s²

(d) The period is the inverse of the frequency because it is the time taken to complete one revolution.

T = \dfrac{1}{f}

T = 1/20 = 0.05 s
