If the car went 30 km west in 25 min. and then 40 km east in 35 min., what would be its total displacement?

Displacement only contain the length of movement and the direction of that movement
So you can pretty much disregard the speed.

30 to the west than 40 to the east

The displacement will be 10 km to the east

hope this helps

Answer:

10 km east

Explanation:

Take the displacement towards east is positive and towards west is negative.

d1 = - 30 km, d2 = 40 km

So, net displacement, d = d + d2 = - 30 + 40 = 10 km

It is towards east.

Which property increases as an electromagnetic wave's energy decreases?

The answer is B frequency. When frequency increases more wave crests pass a fixed point each second. That means the wavelength shortens. So, as frequency increases, wavelength decreases

The wave function of a particle is exp(i(kx-omegat)), where x is distance, t is time, and k and co are positive real numbers. Th

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Momentum, $p=\hbar k$

Explanation:

The wave function of a particle is given by :

$y=exp[i(kx-\omega t)]$ ...............(1)

Where

x is the distance travelled

t is the time taken

k is the propagation constant

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

The relation between the momentum and wavelength is given by :

$p=\dfrac{h}{\lambda}$ ............(2)

From equation (1),

$k=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{2\pi}{k}$

Use above equation in equation (2) as :

$p=\dfrac{h k}{2\pi }$

Since, $\dfrac{h}{2\pi}=\hbar$

$p=\hbar k$

So, the x-component of the momentum of the particle is $\hbar k$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Balanced forces

Explanation:

Balanced forces are where two forces of equal size act on an object in opposite directions. It means that in each direction, any pushes and pulls are balanced by another force in the opposite direction.
