D. Friction because friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other. The friction between the two surfaces converts kinetic energy into thermal energy.

If you walk 5 km north and then 12 km east. Your resultant displacement is____.a. magnitude: 1.1km; direction: 53.1 degrees east
sweet [91]

Answer:

Resultant = 13km

Direction = 67.38° East of North

Explanation:

Given the following :

5km North ; 12km East

Resultant Displacement (r) :

r² = 5² + 12²

r² = 25 + 144

r² = 169

r = √169

r = 13

Direction:

Tangent = opposite / Adjacent

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

Opposite = 12 ; adjacent = 5

Tanθ = (12/5)

Tanθ = 2.4

θ = tan^-1(2.4)

θ = 67.38° east of north

Differentiate between:<br><br>a. Compression and Rarefaction<br>​
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Compression

The region in a medium where the distance between the vibrating molecules is minimum is compression.

This is the region with higher air pressure than the surrounding .

Rarefaction

The region in a medium where the distance between the vibrating molecules is maximum is rarefaction.

This is the region with relatively low air pressure.

hope it helps :)

A uniform cylindrical steel wire (density: 7.8 x 103 kg/m3), 58.0 cm long and 1.34 mm in diameter, is fixed at both ends. To wha
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

T= 354.65 N

Explanation:

Given that

ρ= 7800 kg/m³

L= 58 cm

d=1.34 mm

f= 311 Hz

T= Tension

Speed of wave ,V

V = f λ      

V = f L

V= 311 x 0.58 m/s

V=180.38 m/s

Area of cross sectional

A= πr² mm²

A= 3.14 x 0.67² mm²

A=1.41 mm²

Mass = Density x Volume

m=7800\times 1.41\times 10^{-6}\ kg/m

m=0.0109 kg/m

Tension ,T

T=m V^2

T= 0.0109 x 180.38² N

T= 354.65 N
