#3).  Your drawing in the lower right corner is correct.  You're headed down the right road, but ran out of gas and just stopped.

Radius of the circle = 1.5 km

Circumference of the whole circle = (2·π·radius) = 9.42 km

Distance = 3/4 of the way around it = 7.07 km .

Displacement = the straight line from the West point to the North point.  The straight-line length is 2.12 km; the straight-line direction from start to finish is Northeast (45°).  I'll let you figure out why these numbers.

#4).  What if you walk 1 mile East and then 1 mile West ?  You got a good workout, and you're back home where you started !  Your distance is 2 miles, and your displacement is zero.

The whale had a good workout too.  She swam (6.9 + 1.8 + 3.7) = 12.4 km.  She's sweating and tired.  Her total distance during that workout is 12.4 km.  

Her displacement is the line from start-point to end-point.  How she got there doesn't matter, so swimming 1 km East and then swimming 1 km West cancel out, and have no effect on the displacement.

(6.9E + 1.8W + 3.7E)  =  (10.6 E) + (1.8 W) . . . That adds up to  8.8 East !  That's where she ends up.  That's her displacement ... 8.8 km East of where she started.  Since we're only talking about displacement, we don't care HOW she got there.  She might have been swimming big 20-km circles all day.  We don't know.  All we know is that she ended up 8.8 km East of where she started.

Suppose a piano tuner stretches a steel piano wire 7.5 mm. The wire was originally 0.975 mm in diameter, 1.45 m long, and has a
Tasya [4]

The forces a piano tuner applies to stretch the steel piano wire willl be 1.4 × 10¹¹ N.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body. Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

The application of a force may be used to describe the steel as an elastic element within a certain range of applied force.

Given data;

Young modulus, E=2.10 × 10¹¹ N/m²

Cross-sectional area,A

Final length,\rm L_f = 1.45 m = 1450 \ mm

Initial length,\rm L_i = 7.5 mm

\rm F  = \frac{(L_f-L_i)(E)(A)}{L_1} \\\\ \rm F  = \frac{(1450 - 7.5)(2.0 \times 0^{11})(0.746)}{1450} \\\\ F = 1.4 \times 10^{11} \ N

Hence, the force a piano tuner applies to stretch the steel piano wire willl be 1.4 × 10¹¹ N.

A member of the marching band tunes their trombone inside their school. When they walk out to the field the instrument goes out
Alona [7]

The best explanation is the <em>difference</em> between the inside <em>temperature</em> and the outside temperature.

If the player doesn't change his emboucher (muscles and position of his lips), then the pitch produced by the instrument depends only on the physical dimensions of its plumbing, and the speed of sound in the tube.

BOTH of those things change slightly when the temperature changes.

Answer:

D) The given reaction is Exothermic, because energy is released

Explanation:

Here, given that Zinc is added to a beaker containing hydrochloric acid.

Also, the beaker gets warm.

⇒The energy is released in the form of heat.

EXOTHERMIC reactions are those type of reactions in which energy is released in the form of heat.

When the beaker gets warm, the reaction is exothermic in nature.

Hence, the given reaction is Exothermic, because energy is released

How do you find distance from average velocity and time
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Calculate the total distance travelled by the object - its motion is represented by the velocity-time graph below.

Here, the distance travelled can be found by calculating the total area of the shaded sections below the line.

½ × base × height.

½ × 4 × 8 = 16 m 2

(10 – 4) × 8 = 48 m 2
