<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

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming the ground is level as well.

F = ma

a = F/m

a = (2000 - 350) / 1500

a = 1.1 m/s²

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery until it is fully charged. Then, the capacitor is disconnected from the bat
Helga [31]

Answer:

The potential between the plates will decrease.

Explanation:

An insulator is usually placed between the parallel plates and is also called a dielectric because it makes the amount of charge a capacitor can accommodate to increase at a particular potential difference.

Furthermore, the dielectric effect will make the electric field of the charged capacitor which is not connected to a source of supply to decrease.

Now, when the battery is removed, the charge Q remains constant and Capacity C will increase.

Formula for the potential difference is here;

V = Q/C

Since the numerator Q is constant and the denominator C increases, it means the potential difference V will decrease

Most cars have a coolant reservoir to catch radiator fluid that may overflow when the engine is hot. A radiator is made of coppe
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

0.699 L of the fluid will overflow

Explanation:

We know that the change in volume ΔV = V₀β(T₂ - T₁) where V₀ = volume of radiator = 21.1 L, β = coefficient of volume expansion of fluid = 400 × 10⁻⁶/°C

and T₁ = initial temperature of radiator = 12.2°C and T₂ = final temperature of radiator = 95.0°C

Substituting these values into the equation, we have

ΔV = V₀β(T₂ - T₁)

= 21.1 L × 400 × 10⁻⁶/°C × (95.0°C - 12.2°C)

= 21.1 L × 400 × 10⁻⁶/°C × 82.8°C = 698832 × 10⁻⁶ L

= 0.698832 L

≅ 0.699 L = 0.7 L to the nearest tenth litre

So, 0.699 L of the fluid will overflow

The equatorial diameter of venus is 7,523 miles. if a mile equals 1.609 km, what is venus's diameter in kilometers?
polet [3.4K]

The diameter of venus in km is 12104.507Km.

<h3 /><h3>What is Unit conversion?</h3>

By definition, unit conversion refers to the division or multiplication operation used to convert measurements of the same quantity between various units. The act of converting something from one form to another in mathematics, such as from inches to millimetres or from litres to gallons, is known as conversion.

the diameter of venus = 7,523 miles

1 mile = 1.609 km

so,

diameter of venus = 7523 × 1.609 Km

= 12104.507Km
