Fiona drives 18 meters east and 24 meters south. What is the magnitude of her displacement?

Physics
1 answer:
alexira [117]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

30.0 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance between her initial position and her final position.

In this case, it's the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed by the east and south distances.

x² = (18)² + (24)²

x = 30.0

A student falls off a cliff into the lake 54.0 m below. What is the final velocity of the student?
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

v_{y} = -32.53 m / s

this velocity is directed downwards

Explanation:

This is a free fall exercise, let's use the expression

         v_{y}^{2} = v_{oy}^{2} + 2 g (y -yo)

where we are assuming that there is friction with the air, as the body falls its initial velocity is zero

         v_{oy} = √ 2g (y - y₀)

let's calculate

         v_{y} = √ (2 9.8 (0-54.0))

         v_{y} = -32.53 m / s

this velocity is directed downwards

7. Which best describes the energy change th pushes a large rock down a hill?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Gravitational Energy is the energy of position or place. A rock resting at the top of a hill contains gravitational Potential energy. Hydropower, such as water in a reservoir behind a dam, is an example of gravitational potential energy.

A copper wire has a diameter of 2.097 mm. what magnitude current flows when the drift velocity is 1.54 mm/s? take the density of
frozen [14]

By using drift velocity of the electron, the current flow is 7.20 ampere.

We need to know about drift velocity of electrons to solve this problem. The drift velocity can be determined as

v = I / (n . A . q)

where v is drift velocity, I is current, n is atom number density, A is surface area and q is the charge.

From the question above, we know that

d = 2.097 mm

r = (0.002097 / 2) m

v = 1.54 mm/s = 0.00154 m/s

ρ = 8.92 x 10³ kg/m³

q = e = 1.6 x 10¯¹⁹C

Find the atom density

n = Na x ρ / Mr

where Na is Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10²³), Mr is the atomic weight of copper (63.5 g/mol = 0.635 kg/mol).

n = 6.022 x 10²³ x 8.92 x 10³ / 0.635

n = 8.46 x 10²⁷ /m³

Find the current flows

v = I / (n . A . q)

0.00154 = I / (8.46 x 10²⁷ . πr² . 1.6 x 10¯¹⁹)

0.00154 = I / (8.46 x 10²⁷ . π(0.002097 / 2)² . 1.6 x 10¯¹⁹)

I = 7.20 ampere

How does being on the moon effect gravitational field strength
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Your being on the moon has no effect on the moon's
gravitational field strength, or on the Earth's for that
matter.

However, YOU notice a change on YOU when YOU move
from one to the other, because of the effect of the gravitational
field strength on you and your internal organs.

If you could stand on the moon, you would experience an incredible
sense of lightness, since the forces of attraction between the moon
and anything else are only 16% as great as the same forces are on
Earth.
