consider east-west direction along x-axis and north-south direction along Y-axis

A = displacement in north direction = 2 j

B = displacement in west direction = - 4 i

C = displacement in south direction = - 2 j

total distance travelled is given as

Distance = |A| + |B| + |C| = 2 + 4 + 2 = 8 blocks

displacement is given as

displacement = A + B + C

displacement = 2 j - 4 i - 2 j

displacement = - 4 i

hence the displacement is 4 blocks in west direction.

magnitude of displacement = 4 blocks

they've walked _8 blocks_____ blocks and have a total displacement (magnitude only) of four blocks

Which FBD would represent a car moving right with a motor force of 250 N, and force of friction of 750N, a weight of 8500N and a
babymother [125]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Given that

Motor force is 250 N

Force of friction is 750 N

Weight is 8500 N

And, the normal force is 8500 N

Now based on the above information

Here length of the rector shows the relative magnitude forward force i.e. 250 N i..e lower than the frictional force i.e. backward and weight i.e. 8500 would be equivalent to the normal force

WILL NAME THE BRAINLIEST! An airplane undergoes the following displacements: It first flies 72 km in a direction of 30° East of
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

82.1 km

Explanation:

We need to resolve each displacement along two perpendicular directions: the east-west direction (let's label it with x) and the north-south direction (y). Resolving each vector:

A_x = (72) sin 30^{\circ} =36.0 km\\A_y = (72) cos 30^{\circ} = 62.4 km

Vector B is 48 km south, so:

B_x = 0\\B_y = -48

Finally, vector C:

C_x = -(100) cos 30^{\circ} =-86.6 km\\C_y = (100) sin 30^{\circ} = 50.0 km

Now we add the components along each direction:

R_x = A_x + B_x + C_x = 36.0 + 0 +(-86.6)=-50.6 km\\R_y = A_y+B_y+C_y = 62.4+(-48)+50.0=64.6 km

So, the resultant (which is the distance in a straight line between the starting point and the final point of the motion) is

R=\sqrt{R_x^2+R_y^2}=\sqrt{(-50.6)^2+(64.6)^2}=82.1 km

During the first 50 s a truck traveled at constant speed of 25 m/s. Find the distance that it is traveled.
Allushta [10]
Time=50s
speed=25m/s

Distance = speed×time
=25×50
=1250m

DISTANCE TRAVELLED IS =1250m
