Answer:

In this case in option 4:

The hiker followed a northbound road for 2 miles in 30 minutes.

Explanation:

Hello ! Let's solve this!

To know the description of a movement we have to know the distance it travels and the time it takes to travel it.

In this case in option 4:

The hiker followed a northbound road for 2 miles in 30 minutes.

Distance: 2 miles

time: 30min

Then we can calculate the speed of the hiker

Answer:

The hiker followed a road heading north for 2 miles in 30 minutes.

Explanation:

In order to describe the motion of an object, distance covered and time taken must be required. The total path covered by an object is called the distance travelled.

The hiker followed a road heading north for 2 miles in 30 minutes. This describes the motion of hiker. The motion shows how fast the hiker is moving.

Distance, d = 2 miles = 3218.6 m

times, t = 30 minutes = 1800 seconds

So, we can say that the hiker is moving with a speed of 1.78 m/s in north direction.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Which one of the following statements is true concerning the magnitude of the electric field at a point in space? It is a measur

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

It is a measure of the electric force per unit charge on a test charge.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field is defined as the force per charge on the test charge.

Since we define electric field as the force per charge, it will have the units of force divided by the unit of charge. This implies that the SI unit of electric field is given as Newton/Coulomb (N/C).

A coiled telephone cord forms a spiral with 90.0 turns, a diameter of 1.30 cm, and an unstretched length of 57.0 cm. Determine t

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

2.36 μ H

Explanation:

Given,

Number of turns= 90

diameter = 1.3 cm = 0.013 m

unscratched length = 57 cm = 0.57 m

Area, A = π r²

= π x 0.0065² = 1.32 x 10⁻⁴ m²

we know,

$L = \dfrac{\mu_0N^2A}{l}$

$L = \dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 90^2\times 1.32\times 10^{-4}}{0.57}$

L = 2.36 μ H

Hence, the inductance of the unstretched cord is equal to 2.36 μ H

a flag of mass 2.5 kg is supported by a single rope. A strong horizontal wind exerts a force of 12 N on the flag. Calculate the

tatuchka [14]

The free-body diagram of the forces acting on the flag is in the picture in attachment.

We have: the weight, downward, with magnitude
$W=mg = (2.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=24.5 N$
the force of the wind F, acting horizontally, with intensity
$F=12 N$
and the tension T of the rope. To write the conditions of equilibrium, we must decompose T on both x- and y-axis (x-axis is taken horizontally whil y-axis is taken vertically):
$T \cos \alpha -F=0$
$T \sin \alpha -W=$
By dividing the second equation by the first one, we get
$\tan \alpha = \frac{W}{F}= \frac{24.5 N}{12 N}=2.04$
From which we find
$\alpha = 63.8 ^{\circ}$
which is the angle of the rope with respect to the horizontal.

By replacing this value into the first equation, we can also find the tension of the rope:
$T= \frac{F}{\cos \alpha}= \frac{12 N}{\cos 63.8^{\circ}}=27.2 N$
