A student decides to spend spring break by driving 50 miles due east, then 50 miles 30 degrees south of east, then 50 miles 30 d

egrees south of that direction, and to continue to drive 50 miles deviating by 30 degrees each time until he returns to his original position. How far will he drive, and how many vectors must he sum to calculate his displacement?
a. 600 ml, 12
b. 0, 0
c. 400 ml. 8
d.0,12

Answer:

a. 600 ml, 12

Explanation:

The movement described in the question exhibits that of a polygon. Exhibiting a constant distance and angle with only varying direction until the starting point is reached.

The sum of exterior angles of a polygon = 360 degrees.

Exterior angle of a polygon = (360 ÷ number of sides)

Therefore,

Number of sides = 360 ÷ exterior angle

Exterior angle = 30 degrees

Hence,

Number of sides = 360 ÷ 30 = 12 sides

Since distance traveled of 50 miles is the same for each displacement ;

Total displacement = distance traveled * number of sides

Total displacement = 50 * 12 = 600 miles.

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

τ=0.060 N.m

Explanation:

By kinematics:

\omega f = \omega o-\alpha*t

Solving for α:

\alpha=\frac{\omega o-\omega f}{t}

where ωo = 600*2*π/60;   ωf = 0;    t=10s

\alpha=6.283rad/s^2

The sum of torque is:

\tau=I*\alpha

\tau=M*R^2/2*\alpha

\tau=0.060 N.m

A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.3 kg of nitrogen gas at 160 kPa and 140oC. The nitrogen is now expanded isothermal
irakobra [83]

Answer:

<h2>Work done by the gas is given as</h2><h2>W = 1.72 \times 10^4 J</h2>

Explanation:

As we know that the process is isothermal so here work done is given as

W = nRTln(\frac{P_1}{P_2})

here we know that

n = \frac{w}{M}

n = \frac{300}{28} = 10.7 moles

now we have

W = 10.7 (8.31)(273 + 140) ln(\frac{160}{100})

so we have

W = 1.72 \times 10^4 J
