Answer:

B)The motion of water in an ocean current

Explanation:

With respect to measurements, a vector has both a magnitude and a direction. The first three examples (maximum height of a hill, air temperature, and rain accumulation) are magnitudes only. The fourth example (motion of water in an ocean current) is a vector, because it has a magnitude (speed) and a direction (with the current).

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

432 units

Explanation:

Let the charges be q and Q separated by a distance r. The electrostatic force , F = kqQ/r² = 72 units. If q = 2q and Q = 3Q, then the new electrostatic force is

F = k × 2q × 3Q/r² = 6kqQ/r² = 6 × 72 = 432 units

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

θ = 1.591 10⁻² rad

Explanation:

For this exercise we must suppose a criterion when two light sources are considered separated, we use the most common criterion the Rayleigh criterion that establishes that two light sources are separated census the central maximum of one of them coincides with the first minimum of the other source

         

Let's write the diffraction equation for a slit

       a sin θ = m λ

The first minimum occurs for m = 1, also field in these we experience the angles are very small, we can approximate the sin θ = θ

             θ = λ / a

In our case, the pupil is circular, so the system must be solved in polar coordinates, so a numerical constant is introduced.

           θ = 1.22 λ / D

Where D is the diameter of the pupil

 Let's apply this equation to our case

        θ = 1.22 600 10⁻⁹ / 0.460 10⁻²

        θ = 1.591 10⁻² rad

This is the angle separation to solve the two light sources

A toy car having mass m = 1.50 kg collides inelastically with a toy train of mass M = 3.60 kg. Before the collision, the toy tra
baherus [9]

Answer:

  v_{f} = 3,126 m / s

Explanation:

In a crash exercise the moment is conserved, for this a system formed by all the bodies before and after the crash is defined, so that the forces involved have been internalized.

the car has a mass of m = 1.50 kg a speed of v1 = 4.758 m / s and the mass of the train is M = 3.60 kg and its speed v2 = 2.45 m / s

Before the crash

    p₀ = m v₁₀ + M v₂₀

After the inelastic shock

    p_{f}= m v_{1f} + M v_{2f}

    p₀ =  p_{f}

    m v₀ + M v₂₀ = m v_{1f}  + M v_{2f}

We cleared the end of the train

     M v_{2f} = m (v₁₀ - v1f) + M v₂₀

Let's calculate

     3.60 v2f = 1.50 (2.15-4.75) + 3.60 2.45

     v_{2f}  = (-3.9 + 8.82) /3.60

      v_{2f}  = 1.36 m / s

As we can see, this speed is lower than the speed of the car, so the two bodies are joined

set speed must be

      m v₁₀ + M v₂₀ = (m + M) v_{f}

      v_{f}  = (m v₁₀ + M v₂₀) / (m + M)

      v_{f}  = (1.50 4.75 + 3.60 2.45) /(1.50 + 3.60)

      v_{f} = 3,126 m / s
