Answer:

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance from the start point to the endpoint, displacement disregard the path taken or the amount traveled.

if you start at point A, then go to point B, and back to point A, the displacement is zero because you started and ended at the same point.

for this question, pretend you started at point A, went east 20 km to point B, and then west 8 km to point C, your displacement is 12 km. 12 km is the distance between point A and point C.

What phase difference between two otherwise identical harmonic waves, moving in the same direction along a stretched string, wil

lora16 [44]

Answer:

$\theta=145$

Explanation:

The amplitude of he combined wave is:

$B=2Acos(\theta/2)\\$

A, is the amplitude from the identical harmonic waves

B, is the amplitude of the resultant wave

θ, is the phase, between the waves

The amplitude of the combined wave must be 0.6A:

$0.6A=2Acos(\theta/2)\\ cos(\theta/2)=0.3\\\theta/2=72.5\\\theta=145$

It is estimated that uranium is relatively common in the earth's crust, occurring in amounts of 4 g / metric ton. A metric ton i

timama [110]

Answer:

The mass of Uranium present in a 1.2mg sample is $4.8 \cdot 10^{-6}\,mg$

Explanation:

The ration between Uranium mass and total sample mass is: $\frac{4g}{1000kg} =\frac{4g}{1000000g}=\frac{1}{250000}$

For a sample of mass 1.2 mg, the amount of uranium is:

$1.2\, mg \cdot \frac{1}{250000}=4.8 \cdot 10^{-6}\,mg$

.3.3: Populating a vector with a for loop. Write a for loop to populate vector userGuesses with NUM_GUESSES integers. Read integ

Reptile [31]

Answer:

#include <iostream>

#include <vector>

using namespace std;

int main() {

const int NUM_GUESSES = 3;

vector<int> userGuesses(NUM_GUESSES);

int i = 0;

int uGuess = 0;

for(i = 0; i <= userGuesses.size() - 1; i++){

cin >> uGuess;

userGuesses.at(i) = uGuess;

}

cout << endl;

return 0;

}

Explanation:

First inbuilt library were imported. Then inside the main( ) function, 3 was assigned to NUM_GUESSES meaning the user is to guess 3 numbers. Next, a vector was defined with a size of NUM_GUESSES.

Then a for-loop is use to receive user guess via cin and each guess is assigned to the vector.
