Answer:

Final displacement with respect to the starting position is 832.37 meter

Explanation:

Lets consider that the orienteer start to run on the point of (0,0) point of a coordinate system. When he runs towards to east side about 400m, he will be at the point A(400,0). After he runs to the northeast (at a 45 degree angle from due east and from due north), approximately he will make 353.55 meter to east and 353.55 meter to the north side and he will be at the point of B(753.55, 353.55)

From the starting point total displacement will be 832.37 meter. Please check the attached graphical solution.

Consider Compton Scattering with visible light.A photon with wavelength 500nm scatters backward(theta=180degree) from a free ele
JulijaS [17]

Answer: 4.86(10)^{-12}m

Explanation:

The Compton Shift \Delta \lambda in wavelength when photons are scattered is given by the following equation:

\Delta \lambda=\lambda' - \lambda_{o}=\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta) (1)  

Where:  

\lambda'=500 nm=500(10)^{-9} m is the wavelength of the scattered photon

\lambda_{o}  is the wavelength of the incident photon

\lambda_{c}=2.43(10)^{-12} m is a constant whose value is given by \frac{h}{m_{e}.c}, being h=4.136(10)^{-15}eV.s the Planck constant, m_{e} the mass of the electron and c=3(10)^{8}m/s the speed of light in vacuum.  

\theta=180\° the angle between incident phhoton and the scatered photon.  

\Delta \lambda=2.43(10)^{-12} m (1-cos(180\°)) (2)

\Delta \lambda=4.86(10)^{-12}m (3)  This is the shift in wavelength

A bird is flying with a speed of 18.0 m/s over water when it accidentally drops a 2.00 kg fish. If the altitude of the bird is 5
Alina [70]
Here we go.
My abbreviations; KE = Kinetic Energy; GPE = Gravitational Potential Energy.

So first off, we know the fish has KE right when the bird releases it. Why? Because it has horizontal velocity after released! So let’s calculate it:
KE = 1/2(m)(V)^2
KE = 1/2(2)(18)^2
KE = 324 J

Nice!
We also know that the fish has GPE at its maximum height before release:
GPE = mgh
GPE = (2)(9.81)(5.40)
GPE = 105.95 J

Now, based on the *queue dramatic voice* LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY, we know all of the initial energy of the fish will be equal to the amount of final energy. And since the only form of energy when it hits the water is KE, we can write:
KEi + GPEi = KEf
(Remember - we found the initial energies before!)
(324) + (105.95) = KEf
KEf = 429.95J
And that’s you’re final answer! Notice how this value is MORE than the initial KE from before (324 J) - this is because all of the initial GPE from before was transformed into more KE as the fish fell (h decreased) and sped up (V increased).

El motor de una licuadora gira a 3600 rpm, disminuye su velocidad angular hasta 2000 rpm realizando 120 vueltas. Calcular: a) La
allsm [11]

Answer:

a) α = -65,2 rad/s².

b) t = 2,57 s.

Explanation:

a) La aceleración angular se puede calcular usando la siguiente ecuación:

\omega_{f}^{2} = \omega_{0}^{2} + 2\alpha \theta

En donde:

\omega_{f}: es la velocidad angular final =  2000 rpm = 209,4 rad/s

\omega_{0}: es la velocidad angular inicial = 3600 rpm = 377,0 rad/s

α: es la aceleración angular=?

θ: es el desplazamiento o número de vueltas = 120 rev = 754,0 rad

Las conversiones de unidades se hicieron sabiendo que 1 revolución = 2π radianes y que 1 minuto = 60 segundos.  

Resolviendo la ecuación (1) para α, tenemos:

\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f}^{2} - \omega_{0}^{2}}{2\theta} = \frac{(209,4 rad/s)^{2} - (377,0 rad/s)^{2}}{2*754,0 rad} = -65,2 rad/s^{2}  

Entonces, la aceleración angular es -65,2 rad/s². El signo negativo se debe a que el motor está desacelerando.  

b) El tiempo transcurrido se puede encontrar como sigue:

\omega_{f} = \omega_{0} + \alpha t

Resolviendo para t, tenemos:

t = \frac{\omega_{f} - \omega_{0}}{\alpha} = \frac{209,4 rad/s - 377,0 rad/s}{-65,3 rad/s^{2}} = 2,57 s

Por lo tanto, el tiempo transcurrido fue 2,57 s.

Espero que te sea de utilidad!
