Answer:

The final displacement from the origin is <u>1.6</u> km to the <u>NE</u>

Explanation:

The directions in which the delivery truck travels are;

1) 2.8 km North = 2.8·\hat j, in vector form

2) 1.0 km East = 1.0·\hat i, in vector form

3) 1.6 km South = -1.6·\hat j, in vector form

Therefore, to find the final displacement, Δx, of the delivery truck, we add the individual displacements as follows;

Final displacement, Δd = 2.8·\hat j + 1.0·\hat i +(-1.6·\hat j) = 1.2·\hat j + 1.0·\hat i

Final displacement, = 1.0·\hat i + 1.2·\hat j

Where;

Δx = The displacement in the x-direction = 1.0·\hat i

Δy = The displacement in the y-direction = 1.2·\hat j

The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector is given as follows

\left | d \right | = √((Δx)² + (Δy)²) = √(1² + 1.2²) ≈ 1.6 (To the nearest tenth)

The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector ≈ 1.6 km

The direction of the resultant vector is positive for both the east and north direction, therefore, the direction of the resultant vector = NE

Therefore, the resultant displacement of the delivery truck is approximately 1.6 km, NE from the origin.

What are the complementary colors of magenta? Blue? And cyan?
zysi [14]

Answer:

Magneta is a mix of blue and red and is a secondary colour.

Explanation:

As we can see green is the complementary colour of Magneta.Complementary colours are the pairs of colours which when combined cancel each other out. This means that when combined they produce a grayscale colour like white or black .

A car has a mass of 1000 kg and accelerates at 2 m/s2. What net force is exerted on the car?
prisoha [69]

Answer:

1000N

Explanation:

Based on force=mass*acceleration, if the acceleration is constant at 2 metres per second squared, 1,000kg*2m/s^2=2,000N of force.

If the acceleration steadily increases to 2m/s^2 in 20 seconds, take the average which is 1m/s^2 therefore force=1,000N

An electron is accelerated by a 3.6 kv potential difference. the charge on an electron is 1.60218 × 10−19 c and its mass is 9.10
katen-ka-za [31]
By definition, the potential energy is:
 U = qV
 Where,
 q: load
 V: voltage.
 Then, the kinetic energy is:
 K = mv ^ 2/2
 Where,
 m: mass
 v: speed.
 As the power energy is converted into kinetic energy, we have then:
 U = K
 Equating equations:
 qV = mv ^ 2/2
 From here, we clear the speed:
 v = root (2qV / m)
 Substituting values we have:
 v = root ((2 * (1.60218 × 10 ^ -19) * 3600) /9.10939×10^-31))
 v = 3.56 × 10 ^ 7 m / s
 Then, the centripetal force is:
 Fc = Fm
 mv ^ 2 / r = qvB
 By clearing the magnetic field we have:
 B = mv / qr
 Substituting values:
 B = (9.10939 × 10 ^ -31) * (3.56 × 10 ^ 7) / (1.60218 × 10 ^ -19) * 0.059
 B = 3.43 × 10 ^ -3 T
 Answer:
 
A magnetic field that must be experienced by the electron is:
 
B = 3.43 × 10 ^ -3 T

A leaf fell from a tree branch. The path it followed is shown in the diagram below.
prisoha [69]

The leaf fell at the crooked path instead of straight down because air currents and gravity applied changing and unbalanced forces to the leaf.

<h3>What is an air current?</h3>

An air current is defined as the changes in atmospheric pressure that causes the movement of air from one area to another.

When a leaf is detached naturally from the tree, it won't fall straight down to the floor but will fall a distance away from the tree due to the action of air current and some unbalanced forces.

An electron travels with speed 6.0×10^6 m/s between the two parallel charged plates shown in the figure. The plates are separate
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B= 3.33 m T

Explanation:

Given that

Speed ,C= 6 x 10⁶  m/s

d= 1 cm = 0.01 m

V= 200 V

The electric field E given as

V= E .d

E=Electric field

d=Distance

V=Voltage

200 = 0.01 x E

E=20000 V/m

The relationship between magnetic and electric field given as

E= C x B

20000 = 6 x 10⁶   x B

B =3333.333 x 10⁻⁶ T

B= 3.33 x 10⁻³ T

B= 3.33 m T

Therefore the magnetic filed will be 3.33 m T.
