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.

Why does your hand feel cool if you spill some alcohol on it?
son4ous [18]
<span>It takes heat to make something evaporate, so it takes heat from your arm. Alcohol easily evaporates at room temperature, so it feels cool. This is also why you feel cool when getting out of the pool. The water on your skin evaporates.

A solid, homogeneous sphere with a mass of m0, a radius of r0 and a density of rho0 is placed in a container of water. Initially
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

a) s,f,r  b) r c) f

Explanation:

To determine what happens with the sphere we use Newton's second law with the Archimedes principle that states that the thrust (B) on a body is equal to the weight of the liquid dislodged

For the sphere to be in equilibrium the sum of forces is zero

    B - W = 0

    B = W = mg

Now let's use the concept of density for the body and water

Solid sphere

   ρ = m / V

  V = 4/3 π r³

   m = ρ₀ (4/3 π r³)

   W = ρ₀ (4/3 π r³) g

Water  (a)

   ρ = mₐ / Vₐ

   mₐ = ρ Vₐ

   B = ρ Vₐ g

Let's replace and simplify

   ρ Vₐ g = ρ₀ (4/3 π r³) g

    ρ Vf = ρ₀ (4/3 π r³)            (1)

For the initial condition with rho, mo and ro the height of the water is H, let's analyze each case

a) We have the same mass, but less radius, as density is mass over volume density increases

   r  <ro        V <V₀   ⇒      ρ₁> ρ₀

When analyzing the equation (1) on the right side, this case is the most complicated because I can make the relationship between the density of the sphere and its volume change even when the mass is constant

Assume the three possibilities

- The product of (ρ₁ V) that does not matter in that case the left side does not change and the mark remains the same (s)

- The product (ρ₁ V) increases the left side must increase so the mark goes up (r)

- The product (ρ₁ V) decreases the left side should go down, so the low mark (f)

b) sphere the same radius, but the density increases.

In this case the right side of the equation (1) increases, therefore the left side must increase so that the volume must increase and consequently increase the height (r)

c) you have the same radius, but the mass decreases

      r = r₀     V = V₀     m <m₀        ρ₁ <ρ₀

The right side of the equation decreases, because the density decreases, the left side must decrease, for this the volume must decrease, lowering the height (f)
