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°

Two blocks are the same size one block has a higher temperature than the other. Which describes the thermal energy of these bloc
shepuryov [24]
The block that has a higher temperature describes the thermal energy of these blocks. Thermal energy is a measure of internal energy - therefore, the block with the higher temperature has more internal energy than the block with the lower temperature, meaning it's thermal energy is greater.

When we get out of the bed on a very cold morning, we feel that the air of the room is cold. But when we come back after staying
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

This is because the air outside is always cooler than the air inside, so after staying outside your body adapts to the cold air, when you come back inside, the cold air is still in you which makes the room seem warmer.
