south = -(north)

Displacement = (4 km north) + (2 km south) + (5 km north) + (5 km south)

Displacement = (4 km north) - (2 km north) + (5 km north) - (5 km north)

Displacement = (4 - 2 + 5 - 5) km north

<u>Displacement = 2 km north </u>

What type of energy is formed when an object encounters friction?​
kiruha [24]

Answer:

thermal energy

Friction does negative work and removes some of the energy the person expends and converts it to thermal energy. The net work equals the sum of the work done by each individual force. The forces acting on the package are gravity, the normal force, the force of friction, and the applied force.

Which statement correctly describes the motion of water particles due to the action of waves?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

C True.  they rise and fall in a circular motion

Explanation:

The movement of water waves in the sea is described by a simple harmonic movement where the water droplets, which are the material particles of the movement oscillate up and down and the wave that is the energy of the movement travels perpendicular to it.

With this let's review the claims

A False

B False

C True.

Light travels 300,000,000 m/s, and one year has approximately 32,000,000 seconds. A light year is the distance light travels in
Julli [10]

Explanation:

The speed of light is 300,000,000 m/s.  There are 8 zeros, so in scientific notation, the speed is 3×10⁸ m/s.

An electron and a proton are fixed at a separation distance of 973 nm. Find the magnitude and the direction of the electric fiel
Vilka [71]

Answer:

The magnitude is: |E|=6084.1\: N/C

The direction of E is in the negative x-direction.

Explanation:

The electric field equation is:

E=k\frac{Q}{r^{2}}

Where:

  • Q is the charge (we can choose the electron or the proton)
  • r is the distance (in our case is at the midpoint 973/2 nm)
  • k is the Coulomb constant (9*10^{9}\: Nm^{2}C^{-2})

Using the electron charge (e = -1.6*10^{-19}\: C)

E=-9*10^{9}\frac{1.6*10^{-19}}{(486.5*10^{-9})^{2}}

The magnitude is:

|E|=6084.1\: N/C

The direction of E is in the negative x-direction.

I hope it helps you!
