A wildlife researcher is tracking a flock of geese. The geese fly 4.0 km due west, then turn toward the north by 40º and fly ano

ther 4.0 km. What is the magnitude of their displacement? Calculate this and enter it, in km, to two significant figures.

Wildlife researcher starts from a and then reaches b, he turns towards north 40 degree to move towards c.

Total displacement is ac

Total horizontal displacement = 4+4 cos40 =7.06 km

Total vertical displacement = 4 sin40 =2.57 km

Total displacement $= \sqrt{7.06^2+2.57^2}$ = 7.51 km

If A = 5 and C = 13, what is sin x?

lisabon 2012 [21]

<span>By pythagorean theorem then, the vertical side of the right triangle must be 12.
Then if x is the angle between the horizontal side and the hypotenuse, sin(x) = 12/13 but also the anser should be in this sentences.

Heat is transferred from molecules with more kinetic energy to molecules with _________kinetic energy.

Karolina [17]

Answer:

low

Explanation:

the higher the kinetic energy, the More the vibration of molecules, thus heat is more on the side with highly vibrating molecules

A strip of copper 190 µm thick and 4.20 mm wide is placed in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude B = 0.78 T, that is perpendic

Veronika [31]

Answer:

V = 9.682 × 10^(-6) V

Explanation:

Given data

thick = 190 µm

wide = 4.20 mm

magnitude B = 0.78 T

current i = 32 A

to find out

Calculate V

solution

we know v formula that is

V = magnitude× current / (no of charge carriers ×thickness × e

here we know that number of charge carriers/unit volume for copper = 8.47 x 10^28 electrons/m³

so put all value we get

V = magnitude× current / (no of charge carriers ×thickness × e

V = 0.78 × 32 / (8.47 x 10^28 × 190 × 1.602 x 10^(-19)

V = 9.682 × 10^(-6) V

Four traveling waves are described by the following equations, where all quantities are measured in SI units and y represents th

agasfer [191]

Answer:

$T_1=T_3=\dfrac{2\pi}{21}$

$T_2=T_4=\dfrac{2\pi}{42}$

Explanation:

Wave 1, $y_1=0.12\ cos(3x-21t)$

Wave 2, $y_2=0.15\ sin(6x+42t)$

Wave 3, $y_3=0.13\ cos(6x+21t)$

Wave 4, $y_4=-0.27\ sin(3x-42t)$

The general equation of travelling wave is given by :

$y=A\ cos(kx\pm \omega t)$

The value of $\omega$ will remain the same if we take phase difference into account.

For first wave,

$\omega_1=21$

$\dfrac{2\pi }{T_1}=21$

$T_1=\dfrac{2\pi}{21}$

For second wave,

$\omega_2=42$

$\dfrac{2\pi }{T_2}=42$

$T_2=\dfrac{2\pi}{42}$

For the third wave,

$\omega_3=21$

$\dfrac{2\pi }{T_3}=21$

$T_3=\dfrac{2\pi}{21}$

For the fourth wave,

$\omega_4=42$

$\dfrac{2\pi }{T_4}=42$

$T_4=\dfrac{2\pi}{42}$

It is clear from above calculations that waves 1 and 3 have same time period. Also, wave 2 and 4 have same time period. Hence, this is the required solution.
