displacement is 4 km in north direction.


Explanation:

we are given

 A runner traveled 15 kilometers north first

then backtracked 11 kilometers south

we have to find displacement=d=?

assume that  east side represents +ve x- axis(horizontal)

and

north represent +ve y - axis (vertical)

we can take  x-axis (horizontal) as  i

and y-axis (vertical) as j.

Displacement = 15 j -11 j = 4 km north

<u>Answer:</u>

 Resultant displacement is 4 km north.

<u>Explanation:</u>

    Let east represents positive x- axis and north represent positive y - axis. Horizontal component is i and vertical component is j.

   A runner traveled 15 kilometers north then backtracked 11 kilometers south before stopping,

   So initial displacement, 15 kilometers north = 15 j km

        Second displacement, 11 kilometers south = -11 j km

   Total displacement = 15 j -11 j = 4 j km

   Total displacement is 4 km north.

A spherical submersible 1.84 m in radius, armed with multiple cameras, descends under water in a region of the Atlantic Ocean kn
Drupady [299]

Answer:

23932242.5 Pa

Explanation:

P_a = Atmospheric pressure = 1.013\times 10^5\ Pa

P_w = Pressure of seawater

\rho = Density of sea water = 1.025\times 10^3\ kg/m^3

h = Depth of shipwreck = 2.37\times 10^3\ m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

The absolute pressure is given by

P_{ab}=P_a+P_w\\\Rightarrow P_{ab}=1.013\times 10^5+1.025\times 10^3\times 9.81\times 2.37\times 10^3\\\Rightarrow P_{ab}=23932242.5\ Pa

The absolute pressure at the depth of the shipwreck is 23932242.5 Pa

Compare and contrast series and parallel circuits?
dalvyx [7]

In a series circuit, a common current flows through all the components of the circuit. While in a parallel circuit, a different amount of current flows through each parallel branch of the circuit. Whereas in the parallel circuit, the same voltage exists across the multiple components in the circuit.

What type of energy waves are used in Solar Cells, and what is it’s position on the electromagnetic spectrum?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: Electromagnetic waves (Ultraviolet light, between 100 nm and 380 nm)

Explanation:

Solar cells work by the photoelectric effect, which consists of the emission of electrons (electric current) when light (electromagnetic waves) falls on a metal surface under certain conditions.  

In this sense, the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum this cells use is Ultraviolet light (UV) from the Sun, whose wavelength is approximately between 100 nm and 380 nm.

It is important to note, this is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye.
