"A hiker starts at point P and walks 2.0 kilometers due east and then 1.4 kilometers due north. The vectors in the diagram below

represent these two displacements.
On the diagram in your answer booklet, use a ruler to construct the vector representing the hiker’s resultant displacement."

Here, you need to use your "Protractor" as it is given in the question, but we can calculate the value with the help of our mathematical calculation too:
[ Protractor can be use only in real life, not here ]

Draw an imaginary line from initial position to final position.
Now, In that triangle, tan x = P/B
tan x = 1.4 / 2
tan x = 0.70
x = tan⁻¹ (0.70)
x = 35  [ tan 35 = 0.70 ]

In short, Your Answer would be 35 degrees

Hope this helps!

It is 5.00 km from your home to the physics lab. As part of your physical fitness program, you could run that distance at 10.0 k
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

a. Walking burns up more energy.

b. 1740 kJ

c. This is because more intense exercise releases a lot of energy in a short period of time, whereas, less intense energy releases it energy gradually over a long period of time.

Explanation:

a. We know energy W = Pt where P = power and t = time.

Now for walking, t = d/v where d = distance = 5.00 km and v = speed = 3.00 km/hr and P = 290 W

So, t = d/v = 5.00 km/3.00 km/hr = 5/3 hr = 5/3 × 3600 s = 6000 s

W = Pt = 290 W × 6000 s = 1740000 = 1740 kJ

Now for running, t = d/v where d = distance = 5.00 km and v = speed = 10.00 km/hr

So, t = d/v = 5.00 km/10.00 km/hr = 0.5 hr = 0.5 × 3600 s = 1800 s and P = 700 W

W = Pt = 700 W × 1800 s = 1260000 = 1260 kJ

Since walking burns up 1740 kJ and running burns up 1260 kJ, walking burns up more energy.

b. It burns up 1740 kJ

c. This is because more intense exercise releases a lot of energy in a short period of time, whereas, less intense energy releases it energy gradually over a long period of time.

Two forces act on an object. One force has a magnitude of 10 N directed north, and the other force has a magnitude of 2 N direct
xeze [42]

Answer:

8 N North.

Explanation:

Given that,

One force has a magnitude of 10 N directed north, and the other force has a magnitude of 2 N directed south.

We need to find the magnitude of net force acting on the object.

Let North is positive and South is negative.

Net force,

F = 10 N +(-2 N)

= 8 N

So, the magnitude of net force on the object is 8 N and it is in North direction (as it is positive). Hence, the correct option is (d) "8N north".
