A person walks 4.0 kilometers north, then 4.0 kilometers west. His displacement is closest to

1 answer:

7 0

Use the Pythagoras for the magnitude and the tan^-1 x = -1 for the angle

displacement = 4^2 + 4^2 = 32 = 4 sqrt(2) = 5.65 km

angle is 135 degrees.

The time between a lightning flash and the following thunderclap may be used to estimate, in kilometers, how far away a storm is

Kruka [31]

Given Information:

Elapsed time = t = 6 seconds

Required Information:

Distance = d = ?

Answer:

Distance = d = 2.058 km

Explanation:

We know that the speed of sound in the air is given by

v = 343 m/s

The relation between distance, speed and time is given by

distance = speed*time

substituting the given values yields,

distance = 343*6

distance = 2058 m

There are 1000 meters in 1 km so

d = 2058/1000

d = 2.058 km

Therefore, the storm is about 2.058 km away when elapse time between the lightning and the thunderclap is 6 seconds.

A cylindrical container with a cross-sectional area of 66.2 cm2 holds a fluid of density 856 kg/m3 . At the bottom of the contai

Ugo [173]

Answer:

A. h = 2.15 m

B. Pb' = 122 KPa

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a) Let us assume the depth be h

As we know that

$Pb - Pat = d \times g \times h \\\\ ( 119 - 101) \times 10^3 = 856 \times 9.8 \times h$

After solving this,

h = 2.15 m

Therefore the depth of the fluid is 2.15 m

Given that

height of the extra fluid is

$h' = \frac{2.35 \times 10^{-3}}{ area} \\\\ h' = \frac{2.35 \times 10^{-3}} { 66.2 \times 10^{-4}}$

h' = 0.355 m

Now let us assume the pressure at the bottom is Pb'

so, the equation would be

$Pb' - Pat = d \times g \times (h + h')\\\\Pb' = 856 \times 9.8 \times ( 2.15 + 0.355) + 101000$

Pb' = 122 KPa
