Answer:

100 miles North East.

Explanation:

Please see attached photo for diagram.

In the attached photo, X represents the magnitude of the total displacement of the train.

Thus, we can obtain the value of X by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated below:

X² = 80² + 60²

X² = 6400 + 3600

X² = 10000

Take the square root of both side

X = √10000

X = 100 miles.

Therefore, the magnitude of the total displacement of the train is 100 miles North East.

Normal force is exerted _____to the surface of an object.
Elanso [62]

The normal force is always (underline, bold) is always perpendicular to the surface an object is sitting on. If the object is on an inclined plane, then the normal will not be vertical but it will be perpendicular to the angle of the incline.

The diagram below (left) shows a normal force (GH) that is not vertical, but it is perpendicular to the surface. The object on the right is the more usual normal a mass on a table top.

The vertical line on the right is the normal and it points up.

Your high-fidelity amplifier has one output for a speaker of resistance 8 Ω. How can you arrange two 8-Ω speakers, one 4-Ω speak
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

(a) 8Ω (b)  Ratio = Parra/P8 ohm = 1

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

An high-fidelity amplifier has one output for a speaker of resistance of = 8 Ω

Now,

(a) How can  two 8-Ω speakers be  arranged, when one =  4-Ω speaker, and one =12-Ω speaker

The Upper arm is : 8 ohm, 8 ohm

The Lower arm is : 12 ohm, 4 ohm

The Requirement is  = (16 x 16)/(16 + 16) = 8 ohm

(b) compare  your arrangement  power output of with the power output of a single 8-Ω speaker

The Ratio = Parra/P8 ohm = 1
