You are hungry and decide to go to your favorite neighborhood fast-food restaurant. You leave your apartment and take the elevat

or 10 flights down (each flight is 3.0 m) and then go 15 m south to the apartment exit. You then proceed 0.2 km east, turn north, and go 0.1 km to the entrance of the restaurant.
Part A

Determine the displacement from your apartment to the restaurant. Use unit vector notation for your answer, being sure to make clear your choice of coordinates.

Take the beginning of the journey as the origin, with north being the y-direction, east the x-direction, and the z-axis vertical.

Part B

How far did you travel along the path you took from your apartment to the restaurant?

Part C

What is the magnitude of the displacement you calculated in part

Answer:

A)  R = (200 i ^ + 100 j ^ + 30k ^) m , B)    L = 223.61 m , C)   R = 225.61 m

Explanation:

Part A

This is a vector summing exercise, let's take a Reference System where the z axis corresponds to the height (flights), the x axis is the East - West and the y axis corresponds to the North - South.

Let's write the displacements

Descending from the apartment

10 flights of 3 m each, the total descent is 30 m

                Z = 30 k ^ m

Offset at street level

            L1 = 0.2 i ^ km

            L2 = 0.1 j ^ km

Let's reduce everything to the SI system

          L1 = 0.2 * 1000 = 200 i ^ m

          L2 = 100 j ^ m

The distance traveled is

          R = (200 i ^ + 100 j ^ + 30k ^) m

Part B

The horizontal distance traveled can be found with the Pythagorean theorem for the coordinates in the plane

                L² = x² + y²

                L = √ (200² + 100²)

                L = 223.61 m

Part C

The magnitude of travel, let's use the Pythagorean theorem for the sum

             R² = x² + y² + z²

              R = √ (30² + 200² + 100²)

             R = 225.61 m

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The electromagnetic waves appear more blue in color.

Explanation:

Doppler's Effect: When a source moves with respect to the observer the frequency of the wave emitted from the source changes. If the source moves away from the observer, the frequency decreases and wavelength increases and vice versa.

Here the light source is moving towards the observer so the frequency will increase and wavelength will decrease. Thus the spectrum will shift towards the blue part. This is known as blue shift. The light wave will appear blue in color.

The kinetic energy K of a moving object varies jointly with its mass m and the square of its velocity v. If an object weighing 4
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

K' = 1777.777  J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 40 kg

v= 15 m/s

K=1000

Given that kinetic energy(K) varies with mass(m) and velocity(v)

 K= C(mv²)

Where

C= Constant

m=mass

v=velocity

When

m = 40 kg ,v= 15 m/s ,K=1000

 K= C(mv²)

1000 = C( 40 x 15²)

C=0.111111

When m = 40 kg and v= 20 m/s

K' = C(mv²)

K= 0.1111 x (40 x 20²)

K' = 1777.777  J
