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.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the net electric field is:

$E_{net}=90.37\: N/c$

Explanation:

The electric field due to q1 is a vertical positive vector toward q1 (we will call it E1).

On the other hand, the electric field due to q2 is a horizontal positive vector toward q2(We will call it E2).

Knowing this, the <u>magnitude of the net electric</u> field will be the<u> E1 + E2. </u>

Let's find first E1 and E2.

The electric field equation is given by:

$|E_{1}|=k\frac{|q_{1}|}{d_{1}^{2}}$

Where:

k is the Coulomb constant (k = 9*10^{9} Nm²/C²)
q1 is the first charge
d1 is the distance from q1 to P

$|E_{1}|=(9*10^{9})\frac{|-2.60*10^{-9}|}{0.538^{2}}$

$|E_{1}|=80.84\: N/C$

And E2 will be:

$|E_{2}|=k\frac{|q_{2}|}{d_{2}{2}}$

$|E_{2}|=(9*10^{9})\frac{|-8.30*10^{-9}|}{1.36^{2}}$

$|E_{2}|=40.39\: N/C$

Finally, we need to use the Pythagoras theorem to find the magnitude of the net electric field.

$E_{net}=\sqrt{E_{1}^{2}+E_{2}^{2}}$

$E_{net}=\sqrt{80.84^{2}+40.39^{2}}$

$E_{net}=90.37\: N/c$

Aunt Matilda goes to a well and throws a penny straight down the well at 3.0 m/s. She hears a splash after 0.5 seconds. How deep

nevsk [136]

Answer : The correct option is (d) 2.73 m

Explanation :

By the 2nd equation of motion,

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where,

s = distance or height = ?

u = initial velocity = 3.0 m/s

t = time = 0.5 s

a = acceleration due to gravity = $9.8m/s^2$

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$s=(3.0m/s)\times (0.5s)+\frac{1}{2}\times (9.8m/s^2)\times (0.5s)^2$

$s=2.73m$

Therefore, the correct option is (d) 2.73 m

Explain how a generator creates electricity.

vlada-n [284]

Generators don't actually create electricity. Instead, they convert mechanical or chemical energy into electrical energy. They do this by capturing the power of motion and turning it into electrical energy by forcing electrons from the external source through an electrical circuit. hope it helps man

Suzy drops a rock from the roof of her house. Mary sees the rock pass her 2.9 m tall window in 0.134 sec. From how high above th

timama [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

length of window $h=2.9\ m$

time Frame for which rock can be seen is $\Delta t=0.134\ s$

Suppose h is height above which rock is dropped

Time taken to cover $h+2.9 is t_1$

so using equation of motion

$y=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where y=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

time taken to travel h is

$h=0+0.5\times g\times (t_2)^2---2$

Subtract 1 and 2 we get

$2.9=0.5g(t_1^2-t_2^2)$

$5.8=g(t_1+t_2)(t_1-t_2))$

and from equation $t_1-t_2=0.134\ s$

so $t_1+t_2=\frac{5.8}{9.8\times 0.134}$

$t_1+t_2=4.416\ s$

and $t_1=t_2+\Delta t$

so $t_2+\Delta t+t_2=4.416$

$2t_2+0.134=4.416$

$t_2=0.5\times 4.282$

$t_2=2.141\ s$

substitute the value of $t_2$ in equation 2

$h=0.5\times 9.8\times (2.141)^2$

$h=22.46\ m$
