|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°

What is the angle of the 2nd order bright fringe produced by two slits that are 8.25x10-5m apart if the wavelength of the incide
dexar [7]

In order to calculate the angle, we can use the formula below for a constructive interference (the interference is constructive because the fringe is bright):

d\sin\theta=m\lambda

Where d is the distance between the slits, m is the order of the interference and lambda is the wavelength.

So, using d = 8.25 * 10^-5, m = 2 and lambda = 4.5 * 10^-7, we have:

\begin{gathered} 8.25\cdot10^{-5}\cdot\sin\theta=2\cdot4.5\cdot10^{-7}\\ \\ \sin\theta=\frac{9\cdot10^{-7}}{8.25\cdot10^{-5}}\\ \\ \sin\theta=1.091\cdot10^{-2}\\ \\ \theta=0.625° \end{gathered}

Therefore the correct option is the second one.

Consider a long rod of mass, m, and length, l, which is thin enough that its width can be ignored compared to its length. The ro
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rod will act as pendulum for small oscillation .

Time period of oscillation

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

angular frequency ω = 2π / T

= \omega=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }

b )

ω = 20( given )

velocity = ω r = ω l

Let the maximum angular displacement in terms of degree be θ .

1/2 m v ² = mgl ( 1 - cosθ ) ,

[ l-lcosθ is loss of height . we have applied law of conservation of mechanical energy .]

.5 (  ω l )² = gl( 1 - cos θ )

.5 ω² l = g ( 1 - cosθ )

1 - cosθ  = .5 ω² l /g

cosθ = 1 - .5 ω² l /g

θ can be calculated , if value of l is given .

A resistor is connected to a 36v power supply. An ammeter measures a current of 2.0 A going through it. Determine the resistance
m_a_m_a [10]

R = 18 ohms

Explanation:

Given:

V = 36 volts

I = 2.0 A

R = ?

Use Ohm's law to solve for the resistance:

V = IR

or

R = V/I

= (36 volts)/(2.0 A)

= 18 ohms

Which correctly expresses the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance? V = I/R V = IR V = R/I V = I+R
Ann [662]

Answer:

V = IR

Explanation:

Voltage is denoted by V, current is denoted by I and resistance is denoted by R. Voltage is the difference of electric potential between two points. Current is the measure of the rate of flow of electric charge. Resistance is a measure how a device reduces the current flow through itself.

The three properties are related to each other as per the Ohm's law which states that voltage and current are directly proportional to each other, it can be denoted as

Voltage (V) = Current(I) X Resistance(R).

V = I \times R
