Answer:

a

  x-component             20 \  m

y-component     500 -  452 =  48 \  m

b

 Magnitude d  =  52 \  m

direction is  \theta  = 67.4^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The first  vertical distance is  y_1   = 500 \  m

    The  first horizontal distance  is  x =  20 \  m

    The  second vertical distance is  y_2  =  452 \  m

Generally the displacement is  

x-component             20 \  m

y-component     500 -  452 =  48 \  m

Generally the helicopters displacement is mathematically evaluated as  

       d  =  \sqrt{ x- component ^2  +  y- component ^2 }

      d  =  \sqrt{ 20t ^2  + 48 ^2 }

      d  =  52 \  m

The  direction is the angle the displacement of the helicopter makes with the horizontal which is mathematically evaluated as

         \theta  = tan ^{-1}[ \frac{48}{20}]

=>       \theta  = tan ^{-1}[ 2.4 ]

=>      \theta  = 67.4^o

The normal force is the supporting force that is exerted on an object that is in contact with another stable object.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

Normal force is forward or upward pushing force acting on an object. Mostly the normal force acts as supporting force exerted on the object by the neighbouring stable object with which the object in question is in contact. So normal force falls under the category of contact forces.

Generally, normal force will be acting to support the weight of any object placed on another object. The best examples of normal forces are the weight of the book supported by table or by the pushing force of the wall on the person leaning on the wall.

The work done by an external force to move a -6.70 μc charge from point a to point b is 1.20×10−3 j .
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

108.7 V

Explanation:

Two forces are acting on the particle:

- The external force, whose work is W=1.20 \cdot 10^{-3}J

- The force of the electric field, whose work is equal to the change in electric potential energy of the charge: W_e=q\Delta V

where

q is the charge

\Delta V is the potential difference

The variation of kinetic energy of the charge is equal to the sum of the work done by the two forces:

K_f - K_i = W + W_e = W+q\Delta V

and since the charge starts from rest, K_i = 0, so the formula becomes

K_f = W+q\Delta V

In this problem, we have

W=1.20 \cdot 10^{-3}J is the work done by the external force

q=-6.70 \mu C=-6.7\cdot 10^{-6}C is the charge

K_f = 4.72\cdot 10^{-4}J is the final kinetic energy

Solving the formula for \Delta V, we find

\Delta V=\frac{K_f-W}{q}=\frac{4.72\cdot 10^{-4}J-1.2\cdot 10^{-3} J}{-6.7\cdot 10^{-6}C}=108.7 V
