Answer:

Distance = 64 metres

Displacement = 28 metres

Direction = northward

Explanation:

Given that a  kayaker moves 22 meters northward, then 18 meters southward , and finally 24 meters northward

Distance covered is only about the magnitude of the length covered.

Distance = 22 + 18 + 24 = 64 metres

The direction will be considered when calculating the displacement

Let northward be positive and southward be negative

Displacement = 22 - 18 + 24 = 28 metres

Since the displacement is positive, the direction of the motion is northward.

A moonshiner makes the error of filling a glass jar to the brim and capping it tightly. The moonshine expands more than the glas
ohaa [14]

Answer:

ΔP = (640 N/cm^2)

Explanation:

Given:-

- The volume increase, ΔV/V0 = 4 ✕ 10^-3

- The Bulk Modulus, B = 1.6*10^9 N/m^2

Find:-

Calculate the force exerted by the moonshine per square centimeter

Solution:-

- The bulk modulus B of a material is dependent on change in pressure or Force per unit area and change in volume by the following relationship.

                                  B = ΔP / [(ΔV/V)]

- Now rearrange the above relation and solve for ΔP or force per unit area.

                                  ΔP = B* [(ΔV/V)]

- Plug in the values:

                                  ΔP = (1.6*10^9)*(4 ✕ 10^-3)

                                  ΔP = 6400000 N/m^2

- For unit conversion from N/m^2 to N/cm^2 we have:

                                  ΔP = (6400000 N/m^2) cm^2 / (100)^2 m^2

                                  ΔP = (640 N/cm^2)

Will two separate 50db sounds together constitute a 100db sound explain mathematical
vfiekz [6]
Putting together two distinct 50 dB sound, do not create a 100 dB sound. Since decibels are logarithm of energy, creating two sounds together only makes the energy increase but the logarithm only goes up by somehow little. So increasing the sound by 10 dB, only makes it 10000 times louder because each 10 dB increase in sound makes the sound 10 times louder.

Twice as loud is an increase of 10Log (2) = 3.01 dB. So, 53,01 dB is twice as loud as 50dB.

A spherically spreading EM wave comes from an 1800-W source. At a distance of 5.0 m, what is the intensity, and what is the rms
babymother [125]

Answer:

The intensity of the EM wave is 5.729 W/m²

The rms value of the electric field is 46.452 V/m

Explanation:

Given;

power of the electromagnetic wave, P = 1800 W

The intensity of light is given by;

I = P / A

Where;

A is the surface area of the sphere = 4πr²

A is the surface area of the sphere = 4π(5)²

A is the surface area of the sphere = 314.2 m²

The intensity is calculated as;

I = P / A

I = (1800) / (314.2)

I = 5.729 W/m²

The rms value of the electric field is given by;

E_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{I}{c \epsilon _o}}\\\\E_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{5.729}{(3*10^8)( 8.85*10^{-12})}}\\\\E_{rms} = 46.452 \ V/m

Describe matter and explain why light is not matter. Is light made of atoms and elements?
ipn [44]
Matter is a thing. ex: paper. notice how paper can be written on. notice how it is ...well, THERE. now notice light. the light is not atoms. it is electricity that does weird stuff to create a big enough source of energy to be a source of light. sorta like fireflies
