Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent displacement in vector form .Consider east as x axes and north as Y axes west as - ve x axes and south as - ve Y axes . 255 km can be represented by the following vector

D₁ = - 255 cos 49 i  + 255 sin49 j

= - 167.29 i + 192.45 j

Let D₂ be the further displacement which lands him 125 km east . So the resultant displacement is

D = 125 i

So

D₁ + D₂ = D

- 167.29 i + 192.45 j + D₂ = 125 i

D₂ = 125 i + 167.29 i - 192.45 j

= 292.29 i - 192.45 j

Angle of D₂ with x axes θ

tan θ = -192.45 / 292.29

= - 0.658

θ = 33.33 south of east

Magnitude of D₂

D₂² = ( 192.45)² + ( 292.29)²

D₂ = 350 km approx

A printer is connected to a 1.0 m cable. if the magnetic force is 9.1 × x10-5 n, and the magnetic field is 1.3 × 10-4 t, what is
Valentin [98]
The magnetic force on a current-carrying wire due to a magnetic field is given by
F=ILB
where
I is the current
L the wire length
B the magnetic field strength

In our problem, L=1.0 m, F=9.1 \cdot 10^{-5} N and B=1.3 \cdot 10^{-4}T, so we can re-arrange the formula to find the current in the wire:
I= \frac{F}{LB}= \frac{9.1 \cdot 10^{-5} N}{(1.0 m)(1.3 \cdot 10^{-4} T)} =0.7 A

How are particles in liquids, solids, and gases the same? How are they different?
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Gases, liquids and solids are all made up of atoms, molecules, and/or ions, but the behaviors of these particles differ in the three phases. ... gas are well separated with no regular arrangement. liquid are close together with no regular arrangement. solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.

Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init
SOVA2 [1]

<em>Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init</em>

<em>In SI units, nano is 1000th part of micro which in turn is 1000th part of mini which in turn is 1000th part of main unit. Now, when you affix nano to any unit, here in case, second, it means that you are referring to 1000th part of 1000th part of 1000th part of second or in short, 1000000000th(10^9) part of a second.</em>

Suppose you are pushing a 3 kg box with a force of 25 N (directed parallel to the ground) over a distance of 15 m. Afterward, th
alex41 [277]

Answer: 321 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the box m=3\ kg

Force applied is F=25\ N

Displacement of the box is s=15\ m

Velocity acquired by the box is v=6\ m/s

acceleration associated with it is a=\dfrac{F}{m}

\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{25}{3}\ m/s^2

Work done by force is W=F\cdot s

W=25\times 15\\W=375\ J

change in kinetic energy is \Delta K

\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-0)\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 6^2\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 36\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=54\ J

According to work-energy theorem, work done by all the forces is equal to the change in the kinetic energy

\Rightarrow W+W_f=\Delta K\quad [W_f=\text{Work done by friction}]\\\\\Rightarrow 375+W_f=54\\\Rightarrow W_f=-321\ J

Therefore, the magnitude of work done by friction is 321\ J
