Complete Question

A football coach walks 18 meters westward, then 12 meters eastward, then 28 meters westward, and finally 14 meters eastward.

a

From this motion what is the distance covered

b

What is the magnitude and direction of the displacement

Answer:

a

  D =   72 \  m

b

Magnitude

             d =  - 20 \ m

 Direction  

West

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The first distance covered westward is d_w_1  =  18 \  m /tex]     The  first distance covered eastward is [tex]d_e1 =  12 \  m /tex]      The second distance covered westward is [tex]d_w_2  =  28 \  m /tex]      The  second distance covered eastward is [tex]d_e2 =  14 \  m /tex]   Generally the distance covered is mathematically represented as       [tex]D =  d_w1 + d_w2 + d_e1 + d_e2

=> D =   18 + 28 + 12 +  14

=> D =   72 \  m

For the second question eastward is in the direction of the positive x-axis so it would be positive and westward is in the direction of the negative x-axis so it would be negative

The magnitude of the displacement is

d =  -d_w1 -d_w2 + d_e1 + d_e2

=>  d =  -18-28 + 12 + 14

=> d =  - 20 \ m

The direction is west

musickatia [10]

Answer:

1.3 x 10⁻⁴ m

Explanation:

\lambda = wavelength of the light = 450 nm = 450 x 10⁻⁹ m

n = order of the bright fringe = 1

θ = angle = 0.2°

d = separation between the slits

For bright fringe, Using the equation

d Sinθ = n \lambda

Inserting the values

d Sin0.2° = (1) (450 x 10⁻⁹)

d (0.003491) = (450 x 10⁻⁹)

d = 1.3 x 10⁻⁴ m
