Edward travels 150 kilometers due west and then 200 kilometers in a direction 60° north of west. What is his displacement in the

westerly direction?
Physics

     We must decompose the displacement vector to find the new displacement to the west.

d_{x}=v.cos\O \\ d_{x}=200. \frac{1}{2}  \\ d_{x}=100km
  
     Adding all displacements to West, It comes:

\Delta S= d_{o}+d_{x} \\ \Delta S= 150+100 \\ \boxed {\Delta S= 250 km}

What is the function of a switch? pls HELPPPPPP TYSMMMMM <3​
lesya [120]

Answer:

Connect multiple hosts: Normally, a switch provides a large number of ports for cable connections, allowing for star topology routing. It is usually used to connect multiple PCs to the network. Forwards a message to a specific host: Like a bridge, a switch uses the same forwarding or filtering logic on each port. When any host on the network or a switch sends a message to another host on the same network or the same switch, the switch receives and decodes the frames to read the physical (MAC) address portion of the message. Manage traffic: A switch in networking can manage traffic either coming into or exiting the network and can connect devices like computers and access points with ease. Keep electrical signal undistorted: When a switch forwards a frame, it regenerates an undistorted square electrical signal. Increase LAN bandwidth: A switch divides a LAN into multiple collision domains with independent broadband, thus greatly increasing the bandwidth of the LAN.

Determine the thrust produced if 1.5 x 10^3 kg of gas exits the combustion chamber each second, with a speed of 4.00 x 10^3 m/s.
ozzi

Answer:

The thrust is 6\times 10^6\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of gas, m=1.5\times 10^3\ kg

The rate at which the gas is expelling, \dfrac{dv}{dt}=4\times 10^{3}\ m/s

We need to find the thrust produced by the gas.

We know that force is equal to the rate of change of momentum. So,

F=\dfrac{p}{t}

Also, p = mv

F=\dfrac{mv}{t}

So,

F=1.5\times 10^3\times 4\times 10^3\\\\F=6\times 10^6\ N

So, the thrust is 6\times 10^6\ N

The elements selenium and oxygen are both poor electrical conductors. In which section of the periodic table are they
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Nonmetals

Explanation:

Nonmetals   they are bad conductors of heat and electricity except graphite.

Metalloids   they are less conductors of electricity than metals.

Noble gases  they conduct electricity.

Halogens they are not metals and do not conduct electricity.

From this information, we conclude that Oxygen and Selenium are nonmetals.

Sladkaya [172]
The main difference between the model of the atom proposed by Greek philosophers and the model proposed centuries later by Dalton is that the Greek one was mainly speculative and philosophical - it wasn't based on real evidence, but on their suggestions and thoughts about the matter. On the other hand, Dalton had the means to prove his theory using viable evidence, not just speculations.
