An airplane undergoes the following displacements, all at the same altitude: First, it flies 59.0 km in a direction 30.0° east o

f north. Next, it flies 58.0 km due south. Finally, it flies 100 km 30.0° north of west. Use components to determine how far the airplane ends up from its starting point.A) 70.1 km B) 71.5 km C) 68.7 km D) 74.4 km E) 73 km

Answer:

B) 71.5 [km]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will decompose each of the directions in the x & y axes.

To solve this problem we will decompose each of the directions in the x & y axes. also for a greater understanding of the angles, you should look at the attached image, which contains the orientations for each angle (clockwise or counterclockwise).

<u>59.0 km in a direction 30.0° east of north</u>

<u />

d_{1x}= 59*sin(30) = 29.5[km]\\d_{1y}= 59*cos(30) = 51.09[km]

<u>58.0 km due south</u>

<u />

d_{2y} = - 58 [km]\\

<u>It flies 100 km 30.0° north of west</u>

<u />

<u />d_{3x}= - 100*cos(30) = -86.6[km]\\d_{3y} = 100*sin(30)= 50 [km]<u />

<u />

Now we sum algebraically the components

d_{x}=29.5-86.6 = -57.1[km]\\d_{y}=51.09 -58+50=43.09[km]\\\\

Using the Pythagorean theorem we can find the magnitude of the displacement.

d = \sqrt{(57.1)^{2} +(43.09)^{2} } \\d= 71.53[km]

Answer:

"Emergency resource guidebook" would provide you with the best initial information about this​ chemical

Explanation:

This guidebook is for the first responders in case of the beginning of any dangerous goods or the hazardous materials transportation incident. It is used in firefighters, paramedics and for the police officers, in countries like Canada, Mexico and also in the United states when responding to these accident cases becomes delay. The book has different colours in it, for chemicals it will be green colour whereas the blue or the yellow colour shows the toxic inhalation materials. In TIH it has initial isolation distance and protective action distance information against the accident. The white is the host specific.

What is the modern<br> Jatomic theory?
torisob [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

The modern atomic theory has given by "John Dalton and framed postulates".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The fundamental role of atoms in chemistry is established by the modern theory of atoms mentioned in 1808 for the first time by an English scientist named John Dalton. This consists of three sections such as all matter is composed of atoms, atoms of the same element are the same while atoms of different elements are different, atoms combine to form compounds in full-number ratios.

The unique characteristic of the "number of protons" is that all atoms of the same compound share. While the atoms of the same element i.e having a similar number of protons can have different numbers of neutrons and such elements are called isotopes.

Which statement about motor development is true?
BigorU [14]

Answer:

(a) Motor skills are interrelated.

Explanation:

As per the question,

<u>Motor development:</u>

It is defined as the development of movement abilities such as the development of a child's bones, muscles and ability to move around and manipulate his or her environment.

Importance of a Motor Development Model  are:

(1) Helps us make sense of developmental changes

(2) Provides a framework for observing the change

(3) Helps us include important factors of motor behavior in our observations.

Hence, Only option (a) is correct.
