Answer:

Option A

Solution:

As per the question:

The distance covered by the woman in the North direction, d = 3000 m

Time taken to travel in North direction, t = 25.0 min = 1500 s

Velocity of woman in the south direction, v = 2.00 m/s

Time taken in the south direction, t' = 60.0 min = 3600 s

Now,

The distance covered in the south direction, d' = vt' = 2.00\times 3600 = 7200\ m

Now, the total displacement is given by:

D = d' - d = 7200 - 3000 = 4200 m in South

(a) Average velocity of the woman in the whole journey is given by:

v_{avg} = \frac{Total\ displacement}{Total\ time} = \frac{4200}{t + t'}

v_{avg} = \frac{4200}{1500 + 3600} = 0.8235\ m/s ≈ 0.824 m/s South

You are traveling at 16m/s for 18 seconds. What is your displacement?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Image result for You are traveling at 16m/s for 18 seconds. What is your displacement?

The average velocity of the object is multiplied by the time traveled to find the displacement. The equation x = ½( v + u)t can be manipulated, as shown below, to find any one of the four values if the other three are known.

The amount of the lighted side of the moon you can see is the same during
attashe74 [19]

<u>Answer:</u>

The amount of the lighted side of the moon you can see is the same during "how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces Earth".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Moon is in sequential rotation with Earth, and thus displays the Sun, the close side, always on the same side. Thanks to libration, Earth can display slightly greater than half (nearly 59 per cent) of the entire lunar surface.

The side of the Moon facing Earth is considered the near side, and the far side is called the reverse. The far side is often referred to as the "dark side" inaccurately but it is actually highlighted as often as the near side: once every 29.5 Earth days. During the New Moon the near side becomes blurred.
