In #8, the distance and the (magnitude of displacement) are equal, because he crawled in a straight line.

Displacement = (straight-line distance from start-point to end-point) in the direction from start to end, regardless of what route was actually followed.

Displacement = 5m, in the negative direction.

In #9 . . . distance will be the same. Displacement is going to be the same magnitude, but in the positive direction.

This is so simple that it's hard to talk about.

In #8, "What was the bug's distance ?". "Distance was 5 meters.". "What was the bug's displacement ?", "Displacement was 5 meters backwards."

In #9, What was the bug's distance ?". "Distance was 5 meters.". "What was the bug's displacement ?", "Displacement was 5 meters forward."

The question states: two large, parallel conducting plates are 12cm

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

1. 24375 N/C

2. 2925 V

Explanation:

d = 12 cm = 0.12 m

F = 3.9 x 10^-15 N

q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

1. The relation between the electric field and the charge is given by

F = q E

So, $E=\frac{F}{q}$

$E=\frac{3.9 \times 10^{-15}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}$

E = 24375 N/C

2. The potential difference and the electric field is related by the given relation.

V = E x d

where, V be the potential difference, E be the electric field strength and d be the distance between the electrodes.

By substituting the values, we get

V = 24375 x 0.12 = 2925 Volt

if you are in Birmingham AL, and you want to use your cell phone to talk to your cousin in Houston, TX, what must occur in order

lesantik [10]

Answer:

For communication to be communicated between you and your cousin who is in Houston,Texas, when a call is made by you, a request is made to the specific phone, and the telephone tower will get the request from the mobile phone. Then a signal is sent via a transmitter underground, by this the satellite communicates with the local receiver in Houston, that is linked to the local tower over there, the tower would request for your cousin's number and connects the two of you, once a link is set.

Explanation:

From the example stated, what is required for such for a far distance, is a communication satellite link.

When a call is made by you, the a connection request is sent to the specified phone.The telephone tower receives the request from The mobile phone. The local tower(Birmingham,Al) is linked to a ground transmitter by the means of a Fiber optical cable.

A signal is sent to satellite via the ground transmitter.The satellite then set's off the local receiver in (Houston,Texas) which on it's end is connected to the local tower there. This tower then ask for your cousin's mobile for a call that will be incoming, a link is set, once he/she receives the call, from there a conversation can be done.
