A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 1.62 km due east, 0.246 km due south, and 3.08 km in a direction 50.4 ° north

of west. The time required for this trip is 1.080 h. Determine the magnitudes of the bird watcher's (a) displacement and (b) average velocity.

Answer:

Displacement CO=2.15 Km

Average velocity = 1.99 Km/h

Explanation:

Given

Total time = 1.08 h

OA= 1.62 Km

AB=0.246 Km

BC=3.08 Km

θ=50.4°

CE=3.08 sin50.4° =2.37 Km

BE=3.08 cos50.4° =1.96 Km

CE=AB+OD

OD=CE-AB

OD=2.37-0.246

OD=2.124 Km

BE=CD+OA

CD=BE-OA

CD=1.96-1.62

CD=0.34 Km

Now CO

CO=\sqrt{CD^2+OD^2}

CO=\sqrt{0.34^2+2.124^2}

CO=2.15 Km

So the displacement CO=2.15 Km

Average velocity =Displacement/Time

Average velocity = 2.15/1.08 Km/h

Average velocity = 1.99 Km/h

What are the units for speed
nexus9112 [7]
Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is themetre<span> per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per </span>hour<span> or, in the US and the UK, miles per </span>hour<span>. For air and marine travel the knot is commonly used.</span>

Answer:

1.84 kJ  (kilojoules)

Explanation:

A specific heat of 0.46 J/g Cº means that it takes 0.46 Joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of iron by 1 Cº.

If we want to heat 50 g of iron from 20° C to 100° C, we can make the following calculation:

Heat = (specific heat)*(mass)*(temp change)

Heat = (0.46 J/g Cº)*(50g)*(100° C -  20° C)

[Note how the units cancel to yield just Joules]

Heat = 1840 Joules, or 1.84 kJ

[Note that the number is positive:  Energy is added to the system.  If we used cold iron to cool 50g of 100° C water, the temperature change would be (Final - Initial) or (20° C - 100° C).  The number is -1.84 kJ:  the negative means heat was removed from the system (the iron).

A soccer player pumps air into a soccer ball until no more air can be pushed inside. Describe the air inside the soccer ball com
inessss [21]

Answer:

the filling stops when the pressure of the pump equals the pressure of the interior air plus the pressure of the walls.

Explanation:

This exercise asks to describe the inflation situation of a spherical fultball.

Initially the balloon is deflated, therefore the internal pressure is equal to the pressure of the air outside, atmospheric pressure, when it begins to inflate the balloon with a pump this creates a pressure in the inlet valve and as it is greater than the pressure inside, the air enters it, this is repeated in each filling cycle, manual pump.

When the ball is full we have two forces, the one created by the external walls and the one aired by the pressure of the pump, these forces are directed towards the inside, but the air molecules exert a pressure towards the outside, which translates into a force. When these two forces are equal, the pump is no longer able to continue introducing air into the balloon.

Consequently the filling stops when the pressure of the pump equals the pressure of the interior air plus the pressure of the walls.

The diagram shows an example of convection.
const2013 [10]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we heat a fluid then the movement within the fluid makes hot (less dense) material to rise and cooler (more denser) material to sink at the bottom. This process is known as convection.

Thus, in the diagram hot (less dense) water will rise and cooler (more dense) water sinks at the bottom.

Therefore, we can conclude that according to the arrow the label belongs to cooler water sinks.
