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.

Answer:

.a = 849.05 m / s²

Explanation

The centripetal acceleration is

            a = v² / r

     

Linear and angular velocity are related

          v = w r

Angular velocity and frequency are related by

        w = 2π f

Let's replace

        a = w² r

         a = 4π² f² r

Let's reduce to the SI system

       f = 2.30 rev / s (2π rad / 1 rev) = 14.45 rad / s

       .r = 10.3 cm = 0.103 m

Let's calculate

       a = 4π² 14.45²  0.103

       .a = 849.05 m / s²

How are metals identified i the periodic table??
zaharov [31]

Answer:

okay here is a thing I learned when I was younger in my middle school:

Explanation:

my teacher would tell me that metals are considered a weak metals are on the left side and the good metals are located on the right side because the only way I remembered was the right means it is really strong and the left is weak and not that supportive. but I think that's how I still think it is or other people may have their own opinions. but hope this helped out with your question!

Why is Florida more vulnerable to the effects of climate change? ​
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of Florida, the land surface is also sinking. If the oceans and atmosphere continue to warm, sea level along the Florida coast is likely to rise one to four feet in the next century. Rising sea level submerges wetlands and dry land, erodes beaches, and exacerbates coastal flooding.

Which color of light is diffracted at a greater angle from a diffraction grating, red or yellow light?
topjm [15]
The amount of diffraction depends on the wavelength of light, with shorter wavelengths being diffracted at a greater angle than longer ones (in effect, blue and violet<span> light are diffracted at a larger angle than is red light).

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
