Answer:

A vector is a handy geometric representation of motion that includes both the magnitude and the direction of the motion of an object. Motion without a specified direction is called a scalar quantity. Vectors are designated by arrows, with the length indicating the relative magnitude of the motion.

Hope this helps!

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

v = 1.2 m/s

Explanation:

The wavelength of the waves is given as the horizontal distance between the crests:

λ = wavelength = 5.5 m

Now, the time period is given as the time taken by boat to move from the highest point again to the highest point. So it will be equal to twice the time taken by the boat to travel from highest to the lowest point:

T = Time Period = 2(2.3 s) = 4.6 s

Now, the speed of the wave is given as:

$v = f\lambda$

where,

v= speed of wave = ?

f = frequency of wave = $\frac{1}{T} = \frac{1}{4.6\ s} = 0.217\ Hz$

Therefore,

$v = (0.217\ Hz)(5.5\ m)\\$

A homeowner is trying to move a stubborn rock from his yard. By using a a metal rod as a lever arm and a fulcrum (or pivot point

pogonyaev

Answer:

L = 1.545 m

Explanation:

Let the total length of the rod is L

now the torque must applied on the other end of the rod so that it will balance the torque due to weight of rock on other side of fulcrum

so we will have

$mg \times d = F(L - d)$

so we have

$325\times 9.8 \times 0.266 = F(L - 0.266)$

F = 663 N

$848 = 663(L - 0.266)$

$L = 1.545 m$

The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that

Answer:

The permittivity of rubber is $\epsilon = 8.703 *10^{-11}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnitude of the point charge is $q_1 = 70 \ nC = 70 *10^{-9} \ C$

The diameter of the rubber shell is $d = 32 \ cm = 0.32 \ m$

The Electric field inside the rubber shell is $E = 2500 \ N/ C$

The radius of the rubber is mathematically evaluated as

$r = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{0.32}{2} = 0.16 \ m$

Generally the electric field for a point is in an insulator(rubber) is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{Q}{ \epsilon } * \frac{1}{4 * \pi r^2}$

Where $\epsilon$ is the permittivity of rubber

=> $E * \epsilon * 4 * \pi * r^2 = Q$

=> $\epsilon = \frac{Q}{E * 4 * \pi * r^2}$

substituting values

$\epsilon = \frac{70 *10^{-9}}{2500 * 4 * 3.142 * (0.16)^2}$

$\epsilon = 8.703 *10^{-11}$

The human body is a system of systems that rely on each other to sustain a life. Explain how.

Misha Larkins [42]

The human body is connected in every way. All the organs are connected and help each other be alive. For example, the veins are connected to the heart, which help it by pumping blood and oxygen. If they weren’t there, the heart wouldn’t be able to sustain a life.
I really hope this gave you and ideas and helped you in some way:)
