Alan starts from his home and walks 1.3 km east to the library. He walks an additional 0.68 km east to a music store. From there

, he walks 1.1 km north to a friend’s house and an additional 0.42 km north to a grocery store before he finally returns home along the same path. What is his final displacement and total distance traveled?

Answer: final Displacement = 0 km, total distance covered =7 km

Explanation:

Given the following :

From home to library = 1.3 km East

Library to music store = 0.68km East

Music store to friend's house = 1.1km North

Friend's house to grocery store = 0.42 km North

Displacement is the net change in distance traveled.

Eastward distance :

To = (1.3 + 0.68)km = 1.98km East

Fro = (0.68 + 1.3)km = 1.98 km East

Δ distance = (1.98 - 1.98) = 0

Northward direction:

To = (1.1 + 0.42)km = 1.52km north

Fro = (0.42 + 1.1)km = 1.52km North

Δ distance = (1.98 - 1.98) = 0

Hence final Displacement = 0

Total distance covered = 2 × (1.3 + 0.68 + 1.1 + 0.42) = 2 × 3.5

= 7km

Which of the following actions would decrease the energy stored in a parallel plate capacitor when a constant potential differen
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

increasing the separation between the plates

Explanation:

The increase in the vacuum/separation between the plates in a parallel plate capacitor connected to a constant potential difference decreases the energy stored in the capacitor. the increase in the separation of the plates of a parallel plate capacitor reduces the capacitance of the capacitor because

Q(charge) = CV  V = VOLTAGE , c = capacitance  

E = 1/2 eAV^2/ D  ( ENERGY STORED )

where D = distance between plates, e = dielectric, A = area of capacitor , V = potential difference

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

12.7m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the diver = 77kg

Height  = 8.18m

Unknown:

Final velocity  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use one of the motion equations.

            v²  = u² + 2gh

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

             v² = 0² + (2 x 9.8 x 8.18)

             v² = 160.3

             v = 12.7m/s
