The displacement is 2 m south

Explanation:

Distance and displacement are two different quantities:

  • Distance is the total length of the path covered by an object during its motion, regardless of the direction. It is a scalar quantity
  • Displacement is a vector connecting the initial position to the final position of motion of an object. The magnitude of the displacement is the distance in a straight line between the two points

For the car in this problem, the motion is:

10 m south

8 m north

Taking north as positive direction, we can describe the two parts of the motion as

d_1 = -10 m

d_2 = +8 m

Therefore,  the final position of the car with respect to the original position is

x_f = -10 + 8 = -2 m

which means 2 m south: so, the displacement of the car is 2 m south.

Three noise sources produce volume (loudness) levels of 70, 73, and 80 dB when acting separately. When the sources act together,
Mashutka [201]

Sound at 70 dB is 70 dB louder than the human reference level.  That's 10⁷ times as much as the reference sound power.

Sound at 73 dB is 73 dB louder than the human reference level.  That's 10⁷.³  or  2 x 10⁷  times as much as the reference sound power.

Sound at 80 dB is 80 dB louder than the human reference level.  That's 10⁸  or 10 x 10⁷ times as much as the reference sound power.

Now we can adumup:

Intensity of all 3 sources = (10⁷) + (2 x 10⁷) + (10 x 10⁷)

Intensity = (13 x 10⁷) times the sound power reference intensity.

Intensity in dB = 10 log (13 x 10⁷) = 10 (7 + log(13)

Intensity = 70 + 10 log(13)

Intensity = 70 + 10 (1.114)

Intensity = 70 + 11.14

Intensity = <em>81.14 dB</em>

Looking at the questioner's profile, I seriously wonder whether I'll ever get a comment in return from this creature, and how I'll ever find out if my solution is correct.  For that matter, I'm also seriously questioning how and whether my solution will ever be used for anything.

What is the universe made of?​
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Composition. The universe is composed almost completely of dark energy, dark matter, and ordinary matter. Other contents are electromagnetic radiation (estimated to constitute from 0.005% to close to 0.01% of the total mass-energy of the universe) and antimatter.

The voltage between two parallel plates separated by a distance of 3. 0 cm is 120 v. The electric field between the plates is?
Lapatulllka [165]

The electric field between plates is 4000V/m.

An electric field (sometimes E-field) is the physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them. It also refers to the physical field for a system of charged particles.

The value of the electric field has dimensions of force per unit charge. In the metre-kilogram-second and SI systems, the appropriate units are newtons per coulomb, equivalent to volts per metre.

The voltage between points A and B is

V=E.d

E =V/d  (uniform E- field only)  

where  d is the distance from A to B, or the distance between the plates.

Given:

distance d = 3 cm

voltage V = 120 V

Electric field E = V/d

                     E = 120 V / 3cm

                     E = 40 V / 1 cm               [ 1 cm = 1/100 m ]

                    E = 4000 V/m.

The first and second coils have the same length, and the third and fourth coils have the same length. They differ only in the cr
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}\\\frac{R_4}{R_3}=\frac{A_3}{A_4}

Explanation:

The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length and is inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area, this dependence is given by:

R=\frac{\rho L}{A}

\rho is the material's resistance, L is the legth and A is the cross-sectional area.

For the first and second coils, we have:

R_1=\frac{\rho L}{A_1}\\R_2=\frac{\rho L}{A_2}\\\rho L=R_1A_1\\\rho L=R_2A_2\\R_1A_1=R_2A_2\\\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}

For the third and fourth coils, we have:

R_3=\frac{\rho L'}{A_3}\\R_4=\frac{\rho L'}{A_4}\\\rho L'=R_3A_3\\\rho L'=R_4A_4\\R_3A_3=R_4A_4\\\frac{R_4}{R_3}=\frac{A_3}{A_4}

The magnetic north pole changes location but the geographic north pole does not true or false
a_sh-v [17]
The North Magnetic Pole is the point on the surface of Earth's Northern Hemisphere at which the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards (in other words, if a magnetic compass needle is allowed to rotate about a horizontal axis, it will point straight down). There is only one location where this occurs, near (but distinct from) the Geographic North Pole and the Geomagnetic North Pole. So yes true
