The position compared to that of home is a reference to displacement, I believe.
Displacement = x total - x initial
So I believe the answer is 5 blocks due north (if you’re walking linearly from your home), unless the questions is referring to relative displacement, in which then you’d need to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse between both positions. And then you’d have to find theta for the degrees between the south direction and the other unmentioned direction. But I don’t think that’s the case.
Distance refers to x total and doesn’t care for direction, as this refers to a scalar quantity opposed to a vector. Thus the equation is just
d = x
So 8 blocks + 3 blocks = a distance of eleven blocks walked total
Answer:
20 ms⁻¹
360 J
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object solely due to its motion.
You can get the K.E. of an object using the equation,
K.E. = (1/2)mv² where all terms in usual meaning
So you get,
K.E. = 36000 = (1/2)×180×v²
v = 20 ms⁻¹
Also,
K.E. = (1/2)×80×3² = 360 J
Factors affecting friction
The intensity of friction depends on following factors: i) The area involved in friction. ii) The pressure applied on the surfaces. Force = Pressure ´ Area Frictional force will increase, if the area of contact will increase or if pressure applied on the surface increased.
Methods to reduce friction
i) Polish the contact surface. ii) Put oil or grease so that it fills in the small gaps of the flat parts. iii) Use ball bearings to reduce area of contact between rotating parts.
Lubrication
Following methods can be used to reduce friction: Oil is either thin or viscous. It depends upon SAE No. of oil. (SAE means Society of Automotive Engineers). If we use very viscous oil, it does not reach all the parts. Very thin oil will flows away easily and gets wasted. Grease is used in such cases. It is generally used around ball-bearing. Normal grease or oil is never used where there is high pressure, high temperature and high speed. Special lubricants are used in such cases. In cold season the oil becomes thick and in hot season it becomes thin. Therefore selection of lubrication also depends on the season. It is always advisable to refer operating manual of the equipment before selecting the lubricant.
Answer: 38.2 μC
Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the relationship for a two plate capacitor with a dielectric so:
C= Q/V= we also know that for two paralel plates C=εo*k*A/d and V=E/d
where k is the dielectric constant, A plate area, V is potential difference; E electric field and d the separation between the plates.
reorganizing we have:
Q/A=σ= E*k/εo= 1.2 * 10^6*3.6/8.85 * 10^-12=38.2μC
