The earth has less creators because there is a protective atmosphere which makes the asteroids burn up before they hit the surface of earth. Which means by the moon not having an atmosphere small rocks are easily colliding with the moons surface.

If Vx = 7.00 units and Vy = -7.60 units, determine the magnitude of V⃗ .
Juliette [100K]

|V| = 10.33 units and the direction θ = -47.35° or 312.65°.

Given the x and y components of a vector, we can calculate the magnitude and direction from these components.

Applying the Pythagorean theorem we have that the magnitude of the vector is:

|V| = \sqrt{Vx^{2}+Vy^{2}  }

|V| = \sqrt{(7.00units)^{2}+(-7.60units)^{2}} = \sqrt{106units^{2}} = 10.33units

The expression for the direction of a vector comes from the definition of the tangent of an angle:

tan θ = \frac{Vy}{Vx} ------>  θ = arc tan \frac{Vy}{Vx}

θ = arc tan \frac{-7.60units}{7.00units}

θ = -47.35° or 312.65°

If you travel 40 miles east and then turn around and drive 12 miles west, the displacement is?
AVprozaik [17]
To find how far east we drove (This is the displacement), we simple subtract 12 from 40.
An easy way to do this in your head is to round 12 down to 10, subtract 10 from 40, then subtract the remaining 2. This should result in an answer showing that you drove 28 miles east.

he magnetic coils of a tokamak fusion reactor are in the shape of a toroid having an inner radius of 0.700 m and an outer radius
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

B = 4.323 T

Explanation:

We are given;

Inner radius; r_i = 0.7 m

Number of turns; N = 890 turns

Current; I = 17 KA = 17000 A

Formula for the magnetic field inside the toroid along the inner radius is given by;

B = (μ_o × N × I)/(2πr)

μ_o is vacuum of permeability with a constant value of 4π × 10^(-7) H/m

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

B = (4π × 10^(-7) × 890 × 17000)/(2 × π × 0.7)

B = (2 × 10^(-7) × 890 × 17000)/(0.7)

B = 4.323 T

Suppose we hang a heavy ball with a mass 13 kg (so the weight is ) from a steel wire 3.9 m long that is 3.1 mm in diameter (radi
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

1.635×10^-3m

Explanation:

Young modulus is the ratio of the tensile stress of a material to its tensile strain.

Young modulus = Tensile stress/tensile strain

Tensile stress = Force/Area

Given force = 130N

Area = Πr² = Π×(1.55×10^-3)²

Area = 4.87×10^-6m²

Tensile stress = 130/4.87×10^-6 = 8.39×10^7N/m²

Tensile strain = extension/original length

Tensile strain = e/3.9

Substituting in the young modulus formula given young modulus to be 2×10¹¹N/m²

2×10¹¹N/m² = 8.39×10^7/{e/3.9)}

2×10¹¹ = (8.39×10^7×3.9)/e

2×10¹¹e = 3.27×10^8

e = 3.27×10^8/2×10¹¹

e = 1.635×10^-3m

The stretch of the steel wire will be

1.635×10^-3m
