It doesn't matter what direction she travels, or how far, or whether she uses the same road in both directions.

If she ends up at the same place she started from, then her displacement for the ride is zero.

What is the acceleration of an object with mass of 42.6 kg when an unbalanced force of 112 N is applied to it

lord [1]

The answer is 2.63m/s^2! You use the formula F=ma, 112 = 42.6(a), a= 2.63m/s^2.

If you walk 1.2 km north and then 1.6 km east, what are the magnitude and direction of your resultant displacement?

vodomira [7]

Answer:

Option A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Let the east point towards positive X-axis and north point towards positive Y-axis.

First walking 1.2 km north, displacement = 1.2 j km

Secondly 1.6 km east, displacement = 1.6 i km

Total displacement = (1.6 i + 1.2 j) km

Magnitude = $\sqrt{1.2^2+1.6^2} = 2 km$

Angle of resultant with positive X - axis = $tan^{-1}(1.2/1.6)=36.87^0$ = 36.87⁰ east of north.

Cocaine, which is derived from the coca leaf, is grown mostly in Colombia and its neighboring countries while heroin, which is d

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Because of the location, humidity and temperatures.

Explanation:

Coca is grown in humid and very humid subtropical forests, called yungas and

they form the lower floor of the upper Jungle, in the Central Andes, mostly in Peru and Bolivia. The yungas are in contact with the rainforests of the lowlands in Amazonia, where it has been started to expand coca cultivation recently (Dourojeanni, 1988). The optimum altitude is 1000 a 2000 meters (where cocaine content is higher), with optimal annual average precipitation, is 2000 meters mm, but it is grown between 700 and 2000 msnm and with an average annual rainfall of 1000 to 4200 mm.

msnm = meters above sea level
