Two campers in a national park hike from their cabin to the same spot on a lake, each taking a different path, as illustrated be
elixir [45]

Answer:

<em>Their displacement is 5 Km from the cabin.</em>

Explanation:

The displacement is define is the shortest distance between two points. It is the shortest distance of a line that joins two points together. It quantifies both the distance and direction of the net or total motion along a straight line from the initial position to the final position of the point trajectory. In this case, the straight line joining the cabin to the stream is line S which is equal to 5 Km

Un cuerpo de 480 g de masa es atraído con una fuerza de 3.9 E-6 N por otro cuerpo de 196 g de masa. Calcula la distancia a la qu
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

La distancia entre los dos cuerpos es aproximadamente 1.269 milímetros.

Explanation:

Asumamos que ambos cuerpos son partículas, la fuerza de atracción (F), en newtons, entre ambos cuerpos se define mediante la Ley de Newton de la Gravitación Universal, cuya ecuación es:

F = G \cdot \frac{m_{1}\cdot m_{2}}{r^{2}} (1)

Donde:

G - Constante de la gravitación universal, en metros cúbicos por kilogramo-segundo cuadrado.

m_{1}, m_{2} - Masas de los cuerpos, en kilogramos.

r - Distancia entre los cuerpos, en metros.

Si sabemos que G = 6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}}, m_{1} = 0.48\,kg, m_{2} = 0.196\,kg y F = 3.9\times 10^{-6}\,N, entonces la distancia entre los dos cuerpos es:

r = \sqrt{\frac{G\cdot m_{1}\cdot m_{2}}{F} }

r \approx 1.269\times 10^{-3}\,m

Es decir, la distancia entre los dos cuerpos es aproximadamente 1.269 milímetros.

Why is permeable soil best for plants that need a lot of drainage? Water fills this type of soil. Water dries up in this type of
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Water flows through this type of soil.

Explanation:

By definition permeable soil is soil which water and other fluid flow easily through (like sand) If a plant needs drainage the soil will need to flow through the soil easily.

A weightless spring is stretched 10 cm by a suspended 1-kg block. If two such springs are used to suspend the block, one spring
leva [86]

Answer:

total stretch of the double-length spring will be 20 cm

Explanation:

given data

length x1 = 10 cm

mass = 1 kg

mass = double = 2 kg

to find out

the total stretch of the double-length spring will be

solution

we can say here spring constant is

k = mg    ............1

k is spring constant and m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

so for in 1st case and 2nd case with 1 kg mass and 2 kg mass

kx1 = mg   .........................2

and

kx2 = 2mg   ........................3

x is length

so from equation 2 and 3

\frac{kx1}{kx2}= \frac{1mg}{2mg}

\frac{x1}{x2} = \frac{1}{2}

\frac{10}{x2} = \frac{1}{2}

x2 = 20

so total stretch of the double-length spring will be 20 cm

A submarine sends out a sonar signal (sound waves) in a direction directly downward it take 2.3 s for the sound waves to travel
NISA [10]

Explanation:

Using the formula;

2x = vt

x is the distance up from the ocean floor the submarine is

v is the speed of sound in water

t is the time

Given

t = 2.3s

v = 1490m/s

Required

how high (approx) up from the ocean floor is the submarine x

From the formula;

x = vt/2

x = 1490(2.3)/2

x = 745(2.3)

x = 1,713.5m

Hence the submarine is 1713.5m high up from the ocean floor
