The horizontal component of an angular distance can be calculated by multiplying the distance with the cosine of the angle, Dx = D * cos θ

While the vertical component is calculated by multiplying the distance with the sine of the angle, Dy = D * sin θ

The resultant displacement can then be obtained using the formula for hypotenuse and summations of each component:

R^2 = (summation of Dx)^2 + (summation of Dy)^2

summation of Dx = 600 * cos47 + 500 * cos128 + 300 * cos209 + 400 * cos(-77) = -71.0372

summation of Dy = 600 * sin47 + 500 * sin128 + 300 * sin209 + 400 * sin(-77) = 297.6267

<span>                        Note: you have to draw the lines to correctly determine the angles</span>

R^2 = (-71.0372)^2 + 297.6267^2

R = 306 m

The resultant angle is:

tan θ = Dy / Dx

θ = tan^-1 (297.6267 / -71.0372)

θ = 103˚ = [N 13˚ W]

Therefore displacement is 306 m <span>[N 13˚ W].</span>

<span>Humans first appeared during the Quaternary period. <span>The Quaternary or Neozoic period develops in the Cenozoic era, which extends from 2,588 million years ago to the present. The Quaternary is divided into two periods. The Pleistocene, the first and longest period of the period, was characterized by the cycles of glaciations and the appearance of the first humans (homos habilis); this period extended from 2,588 million years to 10,000 years BC The Holocene, the second epoch of the period, was characterized by the end of the glaciation and the emergence of human civilization; this period extends from 10,000 years BC to the present.</span></span>

Ad libitum [116K]

High specific heat of the water. Option (c)

What is Specific heat?

The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius is referred to as the substance's specific heat. Typically, calories or joules are used per gram and degree Celsius when referring to the units of specific heat.

The moderate temperature of islands has much to do with the water's high specific heat. The typical off-water is more significant than this clear land or soil. Due to this fact, water absorbs and releases eat more slowly. In comparison to the land.

Hence, the water has high specific heat.

To learn more about specific heat the link is given below:

Which one of the following acid-base imbalances? Arterial blood gas levels are obtained from the client. If the client’s results
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is Metabolic alkalosis (D). A pH of 7.48 shows slight alkalinity, this normal concentration of Co2 in the blood ranges from 35 mmHg (millimetre Mercury) to 45 mmHg and the normal HCo3 ( Hydrogen trioxo carbonate ion) concentration ranges from 22mEq/L to 26mEq/L.

Therefor the patients pH level is high the Co2 level is normal and the HCo3 level is high. Hence, Metabolic alkalosis
