The direction of his displacement is the arctangent of (9.5/18).

That's tan⁻¹ (0.528) . . . about <em>27.8° north of east</em>.

Answer:

18.03 s

Explanation:

We have two different types of motions, the criminal moves with uniform motion while the police do it with uniformly accelerated motion. Therefore we will use the equations of these cases. We know that by the time the police reach the criminal they will have traveled the same distance.

$x=vt\\x=x_{0}+v_{0}t+\frac{a}{2}t^2$

The distance between the police and the criminal when the first one starts the persecution is 0, its initial speed is also zero. So:

$x=(55m/s)t\\x=\frac{6.1m/s^2}{2}t^2=(3.05m/s^2)t^2$

Equalizing these two equations and solving for t:

$(55m/s)t=(3.05m/s^2)t^2\\(3.05m/s^2)t^2-(55m/s)t=0\\t((3.05m/s^2)t-55m/s)=0\\t=0 \\(3.05m/s^2)t-55m/s=0\\t=\frac{55m/s}{3.05m/s^2}=18.03 s$

diamong [38]

Answer:

Enamel is used to coat the wires, it is the thinnest possible insulator. The coils are made up of large number of turns and enamel makes it possible to cram a lot of wires (coils) in much smaller space.
