Answer:

Displacement 5 cm from 45 degree above the initial position.

Explanation:

A caterpillar travels straight for 3 cm and then turns left 4 cm. Displacement is the difference between the final and initial position. Displacement is a vector quantity.

vector addition:

R = \sqrt {3^2+4^2} = 5 cm

3-squared + 4-squared = 5-squared

The bug's displacement is 5cm east.

A 1400 kg car is moving at 33.8 m/s when a force is applied the opposite direction of the car's motion. The car slows down to 21
zubka84 [21]

Solve for acceleration:

<em>a</em> = (21.4 m/s - 33.8 m/s) / (4.7 s)

<em>a</em> ≈ -2.6 m/s²

Solve for force:

<em>F</em> = (1400 kg) <em>a</em> ≈ -3700 N

The minus sign tells you the force points in the opposite direction of the car's motion. Its magnitude is always positive, so <em>F</em> = 3700 N.

(I will give you 10 pts) What elements are formed after a star runs out of hydrogen?
babunello [35]
<span>The core finally cools into a white dwarf, then a black dwarf. This is what happens when a normal-sized star dies. If a really huge star dies, it has so much mass that after the helium is used up, it still has enough carbon to fuse it into heavy elements like iron. When the core turns to iron, it no longer burns.

please give me </span>Brainliest answer?

What is the resistance of a 3.5 m copper wire (Rho= 1.7x10-8 Ohm·m) that 1 point
VikaD [51]

Answer:

(D)

Explanation:

Given :

l=3.5 m

A=5.26*10^{-6} m^{2}

p=1.7*10^{-8}  ohm.m

Resistance can be calculated as :

R=p\frac{l}{A} \\R=1.7*10^{-8} \frac{3.5}{5.26*10^{-6} }

R=\frac{5.95*10^{-2} }{5.26} \\R=1.13*10^{-2}

Resistance of the wire will be 1.1×10^{-2} ohms

Option D is correct
