While following the directions on a treasure map a pirate walks 37.0 m north and then turns and walks 8.5 m east what is the mag
kogti [31]

Answer: 38\ m

Explanation:

For this exercise you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the magnitude of the resultant displacement.

Then:

d^2=\triangle x^2+\triangle y^2

You can observe that the square of the displacement is equal to the sum of the square  of the horizontal displacement and the square of the vertical displacement.

Since the pirate walks 37.0 meters north and then turns and walks 8.5 meters east:

\triangle x=37.0\ m\\\triangle y=8.5\ m

Substituting values and solving for "d", you get:

d=\sqrt{(37.0\ m)^2+(8.5\ m)^2}\\\\d=38\ m

A 2 kg ball travellng to the right with a speed of 4 m/s collidees with a 5 kg ball traveling to the left with a speed of 3 m/s.
Savatey [412]

Explanation:

Momentum before collision:

(2 kg) (4 m/s) + (5 kg) (-3 m/s) = -3 kg m/s

No external forces act on the balls, so momentum is conserved.  Therefore, momentum after collision is also -3 kg m/s.

The length of a certain wire is doubled and at the same time its radius is also doubled. What is the new resistance of this wire
Leto [7]

Answer:

R' = R/2

Therefore, the new resistance of the wire is twice the value of the initial resistance.

Explanation:

Consider a wire with:

Resistance = R

Length = L

Area = A = πr²

where, r = radius

ρ = resistivity

Then:

R = ρL/A

R = ρL/πr²   --------------- equation 1

Now, the new wire has:

Resistance = R'

Resistivity = ρ

Length = L' = 2 L

Radius = r' = 2r

Area = πr'² = π(2r)² = 4πr²

Therefore,

R' = ρL'/πr'²

R' = ρ(2 L)/4πr²

R' = (1/2)(ρL/πr²)

using equation 1:

<u>R' = R/2</u>

<u>Therefore, the new resistance of the wire is twice the value of the initial resistance.</u>
