A whale swims due east for a distance of 6.9 km, turns around and goes due west for 1.8 km, and finally turns around again and h

eads 3.7 km due east. (a) What is the total distance traveled by the whale? (b) What are the magnitude and direction (east or west) of the displacement of the whale? If it takes 30.0 min for the whole trip, (c)What is the average speed in km/h for the whole trip ? (d)What is the average velocity (magnitude and direction) in km/h for the whole trip?

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Total distance traveled by the whale = 6.9 km + 1.8 km + 3.7 km = 12.4 km

b) the magnitude and the direction of the displacement of the whale = 6.9 km due east - 1.8 km due west = 5.1 due east

it final displacement = 5.1 km due east + 3.7 k due east = 8.8 km due east

c) average speed in km / hr = total distance traveled / total time = 12.4 km / 0.5 hr ( 30 min/ 60 min × 1 hr) = 24.8 km / hr

d) average velocity in km / h = total displacement / total time = 8.8 km / 0.5 h = 17.6 km/h

A long straight cylindrical shell has an inner radius R_i and an outer radius R_0. It carries a current i, uniformly distributed
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Correct answer is option D

- Wire is on the cylinder axis and carries current i in the direction opposite to that of the current in the shell

Explanation:

- It cannot be Option E, because the magnetic field outside the wire would not be 0 due to the current carried by the conductor

-Also, the parallel wire cannot carry current in the same direction because, that would amplify the magnetic field created by the outer cylinder (since B is dir. proportional to the current) -and now, that leaves only option C and D. If, it is Option C, then that means one side of the cylinder would be more closer to the parallel wire than the other, so there would be different B fields on the two opposite sides of the cylinder. So, that means the answer is option D.

HELP I NEED THIS ANSWERED AS FAST AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WITCHER [35]

Displacement is d  


Vf² = Vi² + 2 g d  


(-20²) = (+10²) + 2 (-9.8) d  


-19.6 d = 300  


d = -15.3 m  


negative means lower


time is t  


d = Vi t + 1/2 g t²



-15.3 = 10 t + (-4.9) t²



4.9 t² - 10 t -15.3 = 0  


t = 3.06 s

Hope this helps -John

What is the weight of an 1000 gram mass
Reil [10]

That depends on where you weigh it.

-- On Earth, it weighs 9.807 newtons (2.205 pounds).

-- On the moon, it weighs 1.623 newtons (5.84 ounces).

-- On Jupiter, it weighs 24.79 newtons (5.57 pounds).

BTW ... 1,000 grams of mass is called ' one kilogram '.
