Answer:

2.828 km

Explanation:

radius of lake, r = 2 km

Let O be the centre of the circular lake and you walk from A to A to D.

Displacement is the measure of shortest distance between two points.

According to the diagram , the displacement AD is

AD^{2}=AO^{2}+OD^{2} (By using the Pythagorean theorem)

AD^{2}=2^{2}+2^{2}

AD = 2.828 km

thus, the displacement is 2.828 km.

1. Compare the speed that light waves travel in air to the speed that sound waves travel in the air. How many times faster do li
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

895522 times faster.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Speed of sound in air (v) = 335 m/s

Speed of light in air (c) = 3×10⁸ m/s

How many times faster =.?

To obtain how many times faster light travels in air than sound, do the following

c : v => 3×10⁸ : 335

c/v = 3×10⁸ / 335

c/v = 895522

Cross multiply

c = 895522 × v

From the illustrations made above, we can see that the speed of the light in air (c) is 895522 times the speed of sound in air.

Thus, light travels 895522 times faster than sound in air.

Which pair of variables defines motion?
masha68 [24]

Answer: position (x) and time (t)

Explanation:

A body is said to be in motion when its position changes with time with respect to a stationary observer.

Following are the types of motion:

<u>Uniform motion</u>: When equal amount of distance is covered in equal intervals of time.

<u>Non-Uniform motion</u>: When unequal amount of distance is covered in equal intervals of time.

Motion can be of the following types as well:

<u>Rectilinear motion</u>: when object moves in a straight line.

<u>Circular motion</u>: when object moves in a curved path.

<u>Periodic motion</u>: when motion repeats itself in fixed intervals of time.

Thus, in order to define motion, only two variables are required: position and time. Measuring these variables can determine whether the object is in motion or not and the type of motion.
