Distance of lake a is 200 km at 20 degree north of east

distance between lake a and b is 230 km at 30 degree west of north

now the distance between base and lake b is given as

d = d_1 + d_2

given that

d_1 = 200 cos20 i + 200 sin20 j

d_1 = 187.94 i + 68.4 j

d_2 = -230 sin30 i + 230 cos30 j

d_2 = -115 i + 199.2 j

now the total distance is

d = (187.94 - 115)i + (199.2 + 68.4)j

d = 72.94 i + 267.6 j

now the magnitude of the distance is given as

d = \sqrt{72.94^2 + 267.6^2}

d = 277.4

also the direction is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{267.6}{72.94}

\theta = 74.7 degree

<em>so it is 277.4 km at 74.7 degree North of East</em>

poizon [28]

Answer:

4.048\times 10^{-7}\ m

Explanation:

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

E = Energy = 4.91\times 10^{-19}\ J

Wavelength ejected is given by

\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{4.91\times 10^{-19}}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=4.048\times 10^{-7}\ m

The maximum wavelength in angstroms of the radiation that will eject electrons from the metal is 4.048\times 10^{-7}\ m

Arisa [49]
We will first convert lb to grams and in³ to milliliters. 
350 lb : 2.205 = 158.75733 kg = 158,757.33 grams
1.3 · 10^4 in³ = 13,000 in³ = 13,000 · 0.016387064 = 213.031 liters 
213.031 liters · 1,000 = 213,031 milliliters
Density = m / V = 158,753.33 g / 213,031 ml = 0.7452 g/ ml
Answer: A block of material will float.

In the ENGR 10 lab (E391), there are 50 long light bulbs (P=100 W) and 30 regular bulbs (P=60 W). How much energy is consumed li
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Total energy saving will be 0.8 KWH

Explanation:

We have given there are 50 long light bulbs of power 100 W so total power of 50 bulb = 100×50 = 5000 W = 5 KW

30 bulbs are of power 60 W

So total power of 30 bulbs = 30×60 = 1800 W = 1.8 KW

Total power of 80 bulbs = 1.8+5 = 6.8 KW

Total time = 3 hour

We know that energy E=power\times time=6.8\times 3=20.4KWH

Now power of each CFL bulb = 25 W

So power of 80 bulbs = 80×25 = 2000 W = 2 KW

Energy of 80 bulbs = 2×3 = 6 KWH

So total energy saving = 6.8-6 = 0.8 KWH
