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

Identify two factors that determine the state of matter
vova2212 [387]
Two factors determine whether a substance is a solid, a liquid, or a gas: The kinetic energies of the particles (atoms, molecules, or ions) that make up a substance. Kinetic energy tends to keep the particles moving apart. The attractive intermolecular forces between particles that tend to draw the particles together.

Answer:

Explanation:

Dear Student, this question is incomplete, and to attempt this question, we have attached the complete copy of the question in the image below. Please, Kindly refer to it when going through the solution to the question.

To objective is to find the:

(i) required heat exchanger area.

(ii) flow rate to be maintained in the evaporator.

Given that:

water temperature = 300 K

At a reasonable depth, the water is cold and its temperature = 280 K

The power output W = 2 MW

Efficiency \zeta = 3%

where;

\zeta = \dfrac{W_{out}}{Q_{supplied }}

Q_{supplied } = \dfrac{2}{0.03} \ MW

Q_{supplied } = 66.66 \ MW

However, from the evaporator, the heat transfer Q can be determined by using the formula:

Q = UA(L MTD)

where;

LMTD = \dfrac{\Delta T_1 - \Delta T_2}{In (\dfrac{\Delta T_1}{\Delta T_2} )}

Also;

\Delta T_1 = T_{h_{in}}- T_{c_{out}} \\ \\ \Delta T_1 = 300 -290 \\ \\ \Delta T_1 = 10 \ K

\Delta T_2 = T_{h_{in}}- T_{c_{out}} \\ \\ \Delta T_2 = 292 -290 \\ \\ \Delta T_2 = 2\ K

LMTD = \dfrac{10 -2}{In (\dfrac{10}{2} )}

LMTD = \dfrac{8}{In (5)}

LMTD = 4.97

Thus, the required heat exchanger area A is calculated by using the formula:

Q_H = UA (LMTD)

where;

U = overall heat coefficient given as 1200 W/m².K

66.667 \times 10^6 = 1200 \times A \times 4.97 \\ \\  A= \dfrac{66.667 \times 10^6}{1200 \times 4.97} \\ \\  \mathbf{A = 11178.236 \ m^2}

The mass flow rate:

Q_{H} = mC_p(T_{in} -T_{out} )  \\ \\  66.667 \times 10^6= m \times 4.18 (300 -292) \\ \\ m = \dfrac{  66.667 \times 10^6}{4.18 \times 8} \\ \\  \mathbf{m = 1993630.383 \ kg/s}

A 14n force is applied for 0.33 seconds, calculate the impulse
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

4.62 N-s

Explanation:

recall that the formula for impulse is given by

Impulse = Force x change in time

in our case, we are given

Force = 14 N

change in time = 0.33s

Simply substituting the above into the equation for impulse, we get

Impulse = Force x change in time

Impulse = 14 x 0.33

= 4.62 N-s
