Answer:

Explanation:

If Tim jogs a distance of 7.2 km to the west and then he turns south and jogs 1.4 km, the resultant displacement of Tim is calculated using the pythagoras theorem as shown;

R² = 7.2²+1.4²

R² = 51.84+1.96

R² = 53.8

R = √53.8

R = 7.33 km

Hence the resultant of Tim's jog back to the beginning is 7.33km

The correct answer to the question is: A) miles/hour and B) metre/ second.

EXPLANATION:

Before answering this question, first we have to understand speed.

The speed of a body is defined as the rate of distance travelled or the distance travelled by a body per unit time.

Hence, it is a derived quantity which is obtained from distance and time.

The unit of distance can be metre, miles, and the unit of time can be second, minutes or hour.

As speed is the distance covered per unit time, the perfect units will be miles/hour and metre/second.

Hence, the correct options are first and second.

An airplane traveling at one third the speed of sound (i.e., 114 m/s) emits a sound of frequency 3.72 kHz. At what frequency doe

nlexa [21]

Answer:

f'=5.58kHz

Explanation:

This is an example of the Doppler effect, the formula is:

$f'=\frac{(v+v_o)}{(v+v_s)}f$

Where f is the actual frequency, $f'$ is the observed frequency, $v$ is the velocity of the sound waves, $v_o$ the velocity of the observer (which is negative if the observer is moving away from the source) and $v_s$ the velocity of the source (which is negative if is moving towards the observer). For this problem:

$f=3.72kHz\\v=342m/s\\v_o=0m/s\\v_s=-114m/s$

$f'=\frac{(342+0)}{(342-114)}3.72\times10^3\\f'=\frac{342}{228}3.72\times10^3\\f'=(1.5)3.72\times10^3\\f'=5580Hz=5.58kHz$

The information on a can of soda indicates that the can contains 355 mL. The mass of a full can of soda is 0.369 kg, while an em

Vilka [71]

Answer:

$\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}$

$\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}$

$s=0.9955$

Explanation:

Given:

volume of liquid content in the can, $v_l=0.355\ L=3.55\times 10^{-4}\ L$

mass of filled can, $m_f=0.369\ kg$

weight of empty can, $w_c=0.153\ N$

<u>So, mass of the empty can:</u>

$m_c=\frac{w_c}{g}$

$m_c=\frac{0.153}{9.81}$

$m_c=0.015596\ kg$

<u>Hence the mass of liquid(soda):</u>

$m_l=m_f-m_c$

$m_l=0.369-0.015596$

$m_l=0.3534\ kg$

<u>Therefore the density of liquid soda:</u>

$\rho=\frac{m_l}{v_l}$ (as density is given as mass per unit volume of the substance)

$\rho=\frac{0.3534}{3.55\times 10^{-4}}$

$\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}$

<u>Specific weight of the liquid soda:</u>

$\bar w=\frac{m_l.g}{v_l}=\rho.g$

$\bar w=995.5\times 9.81$

$\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}$

Specific gravity is the density of the substance to the density of water:

$s=\frac{\rho}{\rho_w}$

where:

$\rho_w=$ density of water

$s=\frac{995.5}{1000}$

$s=0.9955$

"Two long parallel wires 24.0 cm apart carry currents of 3.0 A and 8.0 A in the same direction. How far from the wire carrying 3

avanturin [10]

Answer:

6.5454 m

Explanation:

Let the distance from the wire carrying 3 A current is x

Then the distance from the the carrying current 8 A is 24-x

We know that magnetic field due to long wire is given by $B=\frac{\mu _0i}{2\pi r}$

It is given that magnetic field is zero at some distance so

$\frac{\mu _0i_1}{2\pi x}=\frac{\mu _0i_2}{2\pi (24-x)}$

Here $i_1=3\ A \ and\ i_2=8\ A$

So $\frac{3}{x}=\frac{8}{24-x}=6.5454\ m$
