Answer:

Magnitude of displacement = 2.07 km

Magnitude of average velocity = 1.17 kmph

Explanation:

Let east represent positive x axis and north represent positive y axis.

A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 1.93 km due east, 1.03 km due south, and 3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north of west.

1.93 km due wast

           s ₁ = 1.93 i km

1.03 km due south

           s₂ = -1.03 j km

3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north of west

           s₃ = -3.84 cos 52.8 i + 3.84 sin 52.8 j = -2.32 i + 3.06 j km

Total displacement

          s = s ₁+  s₂+ s₃ = 1.93 i - 1.03 j -2.32 i + 3.06 j = -0.39 i + 2.03 j

  Magnitude of displacement, =\sqrt{(-0.39)^2+2.03^2}=2.07km

Time taken = 1.771 hour

Magnitude of average velocity, =\frac{2.07}{1.771}=1.17km/hr

diamong [38]

Answer:

The code is written in python in the explanation section below

Explanation:

a_feet = int(input("Input the feet of the first fabric: "))

a_inches = int(input("input the size in inches for the first piece of fabric: "))

b_feet = int(input("input the size in Feet for the second piece of fabric: "))

b_inches = int(input("Enter the size in Inches for the second piece of fabric: "))

sum_inches = a_inches + b_inches

inches_to_feet = sum_inches // 12

rem_from_div = sum_inches % 12

sum_feet = a_feet + b_feet + inches_to_feet

print("Feet: {} Inches: {}".format(sum_feet, rem_from_div))

Two 90.0-kilogram people are separated by 3.00 meters. What is the magnitude of the gravitational force that one person exerts o
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

the magnitude of gravitational force is 6 x 10⁻⁸ N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the two people, m₁ and m₂ = 90 kg

distance between them, r = 3.0 m

The magnitude of gravitational force exerted by one person on another is calculated as;

F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} \\\\

where;

G is gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} \\\\F = \frac{6.67\times 10^{-11} \times \ 90 \ \times \ 90}{3^2} \\\\F = 6\times 10^{-8} \ N

Therefore, the magnitude of gravitational force is 6 x 10⁻⁸ N.

A rotating object starts from rest at t = 0 s and has a constant angular acceleration. At a time of t = 2.5 s the object has an
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

52 rad

Explanation:

Using

Ф = ω't +1/2αt²................... Equation 1

Where Ф = angular displacement of the object, t = time, ω' = initial angular velocity, α = angular acceleration.

Since the object states from rest, ω' = 0 rad/s.

Therefore,

Ф = 1/2αt²................ Equation 2

make α the subject of the equation

α = 2Ф/t².................. Equation 3

Given: Ф = 13 rad, t = 2.5 s

Substitute into equation 3

α = 2(13)/2.5²

α = 26/2.5

α = 4.16 rad/s².

using equation 2,

Ф = 1/2αt²

Given: t = 5 s, α = 4.16 rad/s²

Substitute into equation 2

Ф = 1/2(4.16)(5²)

Ф = 52 rad.

The stoplights on a street are designed to keep traffic moving at 26 mi/h. the average length of a street block between traffic ligh
bonufazy [111]

We use the formula,

v = \frac{d}{t}.

Here, v is velocity and its value given 26 mi/h ( in m/s,  \frac{26 \times 1.609 \times 10^{3} m}{60 \times 60 s} =11.62 \ m/s ) and d is distance and its value is given 80 m.

Substituting these values in above formula we get,

t = \frac{80 m}{11.62m/s } = 6.88 \ s

Thus, the time delay between green lights on successive blocks to keep the traffic moving continuously is 6.88 s
