knowing the age of a grandmother because she was a kid during the Great Depression

Explanation:

The best example for relative age is simply knowing the age of a grandmother because she was a kid during the Great Depression. Relative age is usually based on the occurrence of a popular and world wide event. It is not an absolute age that gives numerical and quantitative values to age.

The reference here is the Great Depression
The Grandmother was kid during this period in time.
We can use this knowledge to infer her age.
Since she was a kid at that point, her current age would how far back the depression was and an estimate of her age at that time.

Consider each of the electric- and magnetic-field orientations given next. In each case, what is the direction of propagation of

vodka [1.7K]

The route of the propagation of the wave in every case are; A) +z route B) +z route C) -y route D) -x route .

vec Ein is the Electrical area vector and vec Bin is the Magnetic area vector, due to the fact the sphere vectors are continually perpendicular to every different the propagation of the wave is perpendicular to the 2 vectors. The route of the propagation of the wave may be observed with the aid of using vec Ein X vec Bin (Cross made from vectors). This also can be achieved with the aid of using the usage of the RIGHT HAND RULE.

Cross product may be observed with the aid of using

i x j = okay and j x i = - okay

j x okay=i and okay x j = - i

okay x i=j and that i x okay = - j

wherein i represents the +x route, j represents the +y route and okay represents the +z route

The RIGHT HAND RULE may be used to demonstrate the move product with the aid of using the usage of the proper hand and pointing the index finger withinside the route of the primary vector and the center finger alongside the second one vector, the move product is withinside the route of the thumb.

A) vec Ein the +xdirection,vec Bin the +ydirection,

Finding the move made from the 2 vectors (i x j = okay) might provide a vector withinside the +z route

B) vec Ein the -y route,vec Bin the +x route

Finding the move made from the 2 vectors (- j x i = okay) might provide a vector withinside the +z route

C) vec Ein the +z route,vec Bin the -x route

Finding the move made from the 2 vectors (okay x - i = - j) might provide a vector withinside the -y route

D) vec Ein the +y route,vec Bin the -z route

Finding the move made from the 2 vectors (j x - okay = - i) might provide a vector withinside the -x route

A car moves in a circular motion and it is subject to a centripetal acceleration of 24 m/s2. If the radius of the circular path

Softa [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is given by:

$a_{c} = v^{2}/r$

Thus, centripetal acceleration is inversely proportional to the radius. Thus, when radius will double, the centripetal acceleration will be halved.

In a local bar, a customer slides an empty beer mug down the counter for a refill. The height of the counter is 1.42 m. The mug

telo118 [61]

Answer:

a) $V_{x}=3.72m/s$ , b) ∠=-54.83°

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must start with a drawing of the situation, this will help us visualize the problem better. (See picture attached).

Now, the idea is that the beer mug has a horizontal speed and no vertical speed at initial conditions. So knowing this, we can start finding the initial velocity of the mug.

In order to do so, we need to find the time it takes for the mug to reach the ground. We can find it by using the following equation:

$y=y_{0}+V_{y0}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{y}t^{2}$

We can see from the drawing that y and the initial velocity in y are zero, so we can simplify our formula:

$0=y_{0}+\frac{1}{2}a_{y}t^{2}$

so we can solve for t, so we get:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{-(2)y_{0}}{a}}$

so now we can substitute the known values, so we get:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{-(2)(1.42)}{-9.8}}$

which yields:

t=0.538s

So we can use this value to find the velocity in x:

$V_{x}=\frac{x}{t}$

When substituting we get:

$V_{x}=\frac{2m}{0.538s}$

which yields:

$V_{x}=3.72m/s$

In order to solve part b, we need to find the y-component of the velocity, for which we can use the following formula:

$\Delta y=\frac{V_{f}^{2}-V_{0}^{2}}{2a}$

We know that $V_{0}$ is zero, so we can simplify the expression:

$\Delta y=\frac{V_{yf}^{2}}{2a}$

So we can solve the equation for $V_{yf}^{2}$ so we get:

$V_{yf}=\sqrt{2\Delta y a}$

and when substituting the known values we get:

$V_{yf}=\sqrt{2(-1.42m)(-9.8m/s^{2})}$

which yields:

$V_{yf}=-5.28m/s$

Once we got the final velocity in y, we can use it together with the velocity in x to find the angle.

So we can use the following formula:

$tan \theta =\frac{V_{y}}{V_{x}}$

when solving for theta we get:

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{V_{y}}{V_{x}})$

We can substitute so we get:

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{-5.28m/s}{3.72m/s})$

which yields:

$\theta = -54.83^{o}$

Which one of the following SI base units is not matched to the correct unit of measurement?

laiz [17]

A. Length: km

The Si units of all the left measurements are true thus, in length the typical and standard SI unit is meter. SI units, also called as International Standard of Units, is composed of the following systematized units of physical measure which include, mole (amount of substance), candela (luminous intensity), kelvin (temperature), ampere (electric current), second (time), kilogram (mass), and meter (length). Hence, these measures spheres in multiplication or division by power of 10, increase or decrease in measure.

The desert sand is very hot during the day and very cold at night. What does this tell you about its specific heat capacity?

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: The specific heat capacity is very low.

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of a body is defined as the heat energy required by a body to cause a unit change in its temperature. The value is over low that is why it is easier for the desert sand to easily get very hot during the day. Conversely, it is very easy for the desert sand to lose it's heat a cool breeze pass over it in the night making it very cold in the night. This value also defines how long the desert sand can retain heat. Therefore, the desert sand has a low specific heat capacity.
