Answer:

The displacement is zero

Explanation:

Displacement is a vector that connects the starting position of motion of an object to the final position. It is a vector quantity, so it has both magnitude and direction.

Viceversa, distance is a scalar quantity that measures the total length of the path covered by the object during its motion.

In this problem, we are interested in the displacement.

We are told that the runner goes around a 1 mile track, and he ends at his starting position: this means that his final position is equal to the starting position, therefore the displacement is zero.

A sky diver, with parachute unopened, falls 625 m in 15.0 s. Then she opens her parachute and falls another 362 m in 139 s. What
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

v_{avg} = 6.41 m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is defined as the ratio of total displacement of the motion and total time taken in that motion

here we know that initially the sky diver drops without opening parachute by total displacement 625 m

then she open her parachute and drop another 362 m

so first it took time t = 15 s to drop without open parachute

then it took t = 139 s to drop next displacement

so here total displacement is given as

d = 625 m + 362 m

total time is given as

t = 15 s + 139 s

so average velocity is given as

v_{avg} = \frac{625 + 362}{15 + 139}

v_{avg} = 6.41 m/s

morpeh [17]

Answer: The question has some missing details. The initial velocity given as u = -6.5i + 17j + 13k and the final velocity v = -2.8i + 17j -9.3k.

a) = (1.82i - 9.69k)m/s2

b) magnitude = 9.85m/s2

c) direction = 280.64 degree

Explanation:

The detailed and step is shown in the attachment.

An atom emits a light wave with a wavelength of 449 nm. what type or color of light does this represent?
Vinvika [58]
The visible spectrum ranges from 390 nm to 700 nm. the visible spectrum consist of the red ( 620 - 750 nm ) , orange ( 590 - 620 nm ) , yellow ( 570 - 590 nm ) , green ( 495 - 570 nm ) , blue ( 450 - 495 nm ) and violet ( 380 - 450 nm ) so the wave length 449 nm will produce a violet color
