Dante is leading a parade across the main street in front of city hall. Starting at city hall, he marches the parade 4 blocks ea

st, then 3 blocks south. From there, the parade marches 1 block west and 9 blocks north and finally stops. What is the vector displacement and direction of the the parade, starting from the city hall and the stopping point? (1 point)

Answer:

 R = 6.7  blocks and    θ = 63.4

Explanation:

The displacement vector is the vector sum of each individual displacement, the easiest way to do this is to find the magnitude of the displacement.

X axis

         x₁ = 4

         x₂ = -1

         x = 4 - 1 = 3

Y Axis  

      y₁ = -3

      y₂ = 9

      y = -3 + 9 = 6

We use the Pythagorean theorem

     R = √ (x² + y²)

     R =√ (3² + 6²)

     R = 6.7

We look for the displacement angle with trigonometry

        tan θ = y / x

       tan θ = 6/3

       θ = tan⁻¹ 2

       θ = 63.4

Answer:

The displacement between the city hall and the stopping point is 6.7 blocks.

The direction is 63.43°

Explanation:

The diagram explains better.

From the diagram, point O is the city hall and point D is the stopping point.

The displacement between O and D is OD.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we can find this:

OD² = OX² + DX²

From the diagram:

OX = 4 - 1 = 3 blocks

DX = 9 - 3 = 6 blocks

=> OD² = 3² + 6² = 9 + 36

OD² = 45

=> OD = 6.7 blocks

To get the direction, θ, we use SOHCAHTOA:

tanθ = DX/OX

tanθ = 6/3 = 2

=> θ = 63.43°

Scientists can use the location and depth of where a fossil is found to estimate the age of the fossil. To do this, they use
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

C the Law of Superposition

Explanation:

Basically the law of Superposition is applied in this regard. The law states that "the oldest layer is on the bottom and the youngest layer is on top".

When we find fossils at a particular depth we can relatively date a rock based on the strata we find them. A fossil in place in bottom beds will be older than the one in the topmost layer. Fossils also succeed one another in a definite pattern according to the principle of fossil and fauna succession.

polet [3.4K]
Here is the answer to the given question above. If Angela has been feeling fatigued and a test is used to check the basal metabolic rate and revealed that she has a low metabolic rate, therefore, the possible diagnosis for Angela would be HYPOTHYROIDISM. <span>The BMR test works by precisely measuring the amount of oxygen that you consume when your body is basal, or completely at rest. Hope this answers your question.</span>

hram777 [196]

Answer:

v_{2}=3.5 m/s

Explanation:

Using the conservation of energy we have:

\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}=mgh

Let's solve it for v:

v=\sqrt{2gh}

So the speed at the lowest point is v=7 m/s

Now, using the conservation of momentum we have:

m_{1}v_{1}=m_{2}v_{2}

v_{2}=\frac{1*7}{2}

Therefore the speed of the block after the collision is v_{2}=3.5 m/s

I hope it helps you!
