<h2>Displacement along west = 3612 m</h2><h2>Displacement along north = 4633.50 m</h2>

Explanation:

Let east be positive x axis and north be positive y axis

Velocity of boat = 2.8 m/s in a direction 52° north of west.

Velocity, v = -2.8 cos 52 i + 2.8 sin 52 j = -1.72 i + 2.21 j m/s

Time taken = 35 min = 35 x 60 = 2100 s

Displacement = Velocity x Time

Displacement =  (-1.72 i + 2.21 j)  x 2100

Displacement =  -3612 i + 4633.50 j m

Displacement along west = 3612 m

Displacement along north = 4633.50 m

Which kind of pressure prevents stars of extremely large mass from forming?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Radiation pressure

Explanation:

Radiation pressure is gotten from the light source. The radiation pressure has a set mass limit of 150 solar masses. Any mass from 150 solar masses or below supports the formation of the stars.

However when the mass exceeds 150 solar masses the force of gravity is unable to hold the masses together and the excess mass

Is usually blown away after which the required mass is then used in the formation.

What happens to the particles in a substance when temperature rises
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

They gain kinetic energy

Explanation:

When the temperature of the particles in a substance rise, its internal energy increases. This internal energy is thus translated to kinetic energy of the particles in the substance. If the substance is a solid, as the kinetic energy increases, the vibrations of the particles of the substance increases causing it to undergo a change of state to liquid when the temperature reaches its melting point.

This change of state also occurs from the liquid state to the gaseous state as the internal energy of the substance, and thus the kinetic energy of the particles increase when the temperature reaches the substance's boiling point.

<u>So, as the temperature of a substance rises, the particles of the substance gain kinetic energy.</u>

shannon dropped his ICP textbook. how fast was it going after 3 seconds? how far did it fall? please guys help mee quickly pleas
Mekhanik [1.2K]

¡Hola!

For this problem, first, lets recabe information:

v = 0 m/s

t = 3 s

g = 9,82 m/s²

v' = ?

d = ?

First, for calculate the final velocity:

v' = v + g * t

v' = 0 m/s + 9,82 m/s² * 3 s

v' = 29,46 m/s \leftarrow \boxed{\text{Velocity} }

Now, for calculate how far did it fall:

d = v * t + g * t^2 / 2

Like v = 0 m/s, we can simplificate equation:

d = g * t^2 / 2

d = 9,82 m/s² * (3 s)^2 / 2

d = 9,82 m/s² * 9 s² / 2

d = 88,38 m / 2

d = 44.19  m \leftarrow \boxed{\text{Distance} }

¡Buena suerte!

Consider a current carrying a wire coming out of your computer screen towards you. Which statement below correctly describes the
Ugo [173]

Answer:

1. The magnetic field encircles the wire in a counterclockwise direction

Explanation:

When we have a current carrying wire perpendicular to the screen in which the current flows out of the screen then by the Maxwell's right-hand thumb rule we place the thumb of our right hand in the direction of the current and curl the remaining fingers around the wire, these curled fingers denote the direction of the magnetic field which is in the counter-clock wise direction.

Ever current carrying conductor produces a magnetic field around it.
