Since displacement is a vector quantity, it depends on direction as well as magnitude.

Taking displacement towards east as positive and towards west as negative,
Total displacement = 1200 + (-760) = 440 meters. 

Since distance is a scalar quantity, it depends only upon magnitude.
Total distance = 1200 + 760 = 1960 meters. 

Hope this cleared your doubt, feel free to ask any questions regarding this and have a nice day ahead! :)

calculate the current required to create a 0 .85-mT magnetic field at the center of a loop of wire of diameter 12 cm
crimeas [40]

Answer:

81.2 A

Explanation:

The magnetic field at the center of a current-carrying loop is given by

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2R}

where

\mu_0 = 4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} Tm/A is the vacuum permeability

I is the current in the loop

R is the radius of the loop

In this problem, we have:

d = 12 cm is the diameter of the loop, so its radius is

R = d/2 = 12/2 = 6 cm = 0.06 m

B=0.85 mT=0.85\cdot 10^{-3}T is the magnetic field at the center

Therefore, the current in the loop must be:

I=\frac{2RB}{\mu_0}=\frac{2(0.06)(0.85\cdot 10^{-3}}{4\pi \cdot 10^{-7}}=81.2 A

A baseball has mass 0.145 kg.
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

a).p=15.67kg*m/s

b). F=7.83N

Explanation:

change in momentum is the subtraction from "after momentum" of the "before momentum"  as momentum is a vector quantity this is a vector subtraction.

initial momentum of ball

m1v1 = (0.145)(44.0) = 6.38 kg-m/s

after momentum

m1v2 = (0.145)(64.0) = 9.28 kg-m/s

since these momentums are 180° opposite one must be called negative so their difference

6.38+9.28= 15.67 kg-m/s

change in momentum = 15.67 kg-m/s ANS a1

Impulse = change in momenutm = 15.67 ANS a2

b)

Impulse =Favg*t

I=(2.00)Favg

Impulse from (a2) = 15.67  

Favg = 15.67/2.00 =

F= 7.83 N
