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. The time required for this trip is 1.771 h. Determine the magnitudes of the bird watcher's (a) displacement and (b) average velocity.

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

14. Which is the relationship between photon energy and frequency?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The amount of energy is directly proportional to the photon's electromagnetic frequency and thus, equivalently, is inversely proportional to the wavelength. The higher the photon's frequency, the higher its energy.

A wrench is accidentally dropped from the top of a mast on a sailboat. Will the wrench hit at the same place on the deck whether
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Yes, because the wrench is moving at the same speed as the sailboat.

The main difference is that a person on the ground would see the wrench moving diagonally, while a person on the boat would see the wrench falling straight down,

This difference in paths lead to the relativistic change in lengths.

THIS IS A SCIENCE QUESTION IF THESE ARNT ANSWERED IM GOING TO FAIL SCIENCE
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

1.a storm with a violent wind, in particular a tropical cyclone in the Caribbean.

2.The Eye of a Hurricane. The eye is the region at the center of the hurricane, which is roughly circular in shape and usually has calm weather.

3.Hurricanes form over the ocean, often beginning as a tropical wave—a low pressure area that moves through the moisture-rich tropics, possibly enhancing shower and thunderstorm activity.  

4.When the surface water is warm, the storm sucks up heat energy from the water, just like a straw sucks up a liquid. This creates moisture in the air. If wind conditions are right, the storm becomes a hurricane. This heat energy is the fuel for the storm.

5.a rising of the sea as a result of atmospheric pressure changes and wind associated with a storm.

6.A hurricane dies down when it loses its energy source, which is usually warm water at the surface of the ocean.

7.Hurricane Katrina was so destructive because of a bunch of events that happened in just the right way. First, understand that Katrina was at one point a Category 5 storm and was predicted to hit New Orleans as a Category 4. It weakened to a Cat 3 and veered ever so slightly to the east, making the damage far less than it could have been.
