Answer:
Explanation:
We shall express each displacement vectorially , i for each unit displacement towards east , j for northward displacement and k for vertical displacement .
14 m due west = - 14 i
22.0 m upward in the elevator = 22 k
12 m north = 12 j
6.00 m east = 6 i
Total displacement = - 14 i + 22 k + 12 j + 6 i
D = - 8 i + 12 j + 22 k
magnitude = √ ( 8² + 12² + 22² )
= √ ( 64 + 144 + 484 )
= √ 692
= 26.3 m
Net displacement from starting point = 26.3 m .
Answer:
Option B.
Explanation:
Assuming the stick is in vertical position, its shadow depends on two factors: its length and the angle between the sun rays and the stick. When the angle is bigger, the lenght of the shadow increases, and vice versa. So, when the sun rays are parallel to the stick, the shadow may be small. Since they are nearly perpendicular to the Earth's surface at 12 o'clock, the shadow of the stick at that time should be minimal. It means that the measured shadow of 75 cm at 12:30 p.m. is almost impossible (Option B).
A circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current from an overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to interrupt current flow after a fault is detected.
