Dexter uses a compass to walk 140m due east. What is his distance and displacement?

Physics

The distance is 140 m and the displacement is 140 m E. Displacement can change though. For example, if Dexter walked 140 m east then walked 40 meters west the displacement would be 100 m E. Displacement is just how far away an object is from the start.

In a lab, four balls have the same velocities but different masses.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

New Momentum of Ball B=13.2 \frac{\mathrm{kgm}}{\mathrm{s}}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Mass of Ball A=1kg

Mass of Ball B= 2kg

Mass of Ball C=5kg

Mass of Ball D=7kg

Velocities of A=B=C=D=2.2\frac{m}{s}

Momentum of Ball A=2.2\frac{k g m}{s}

Momentum of Ball B=4.4 \frac{k g m}{s}

Momentum of Ball C=11\frac{k g m}{s}

Momentum of Ball D=15\frac{k g m}{s}

To Find:

Change in Momentum When of Ball B gets tripled

Solution:

Though all balls have same velocity, thus we get

Velocities of A=B=C=D=2.2\frac{m}{s}

Initial Momentum of Ball B=4.4\frac{k g m}{s}

If the Mass of Ball B gets tripled;

We get New Mass of Ball B=3×Actual Mass of the ball

                                            =3×2=6kg

Thus we get Mass of Ball B=6kg

According to the formula,  

Change in momentum of Ball B \Delta p=m \times \Delta v

Where \Delta p=change in momentum

          m=mass of the ball B

         \Delta v=change in velocity ball B

And \Delta v=v, since all balls, have same velocity

Thus the above equation, changes to

         \Delta p=m \times v

Substitute all the values in the above equation we get

         \Delta p=6 \times 2.2

                     =13.2 \frac{\mathrm{kgm}}{\mathrm{s}}  

Result:

 Thus the New Momentum of ball B=13.2 \frac{\mathrm{kgm}}{\mathrm{s}}

How do air mass conditions ahead of the squall line support the development of new cell?
IRISSAK [1]
<span>Storm cells in a squall line typically move from the southwest to the northeast, and as the mature cells in the northeast begin to die off, new ones are formed at the opposite end to advance the line. The air in the southwest corner has strong vertical updrafts that allow new cells to grow and develop into thunderstorms.</span>

“instrucciones” para hacer los diagramas de Lewis de un compuesto iónico y luego para uno covalente. ¿En qué se diferencian y en
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

- Se diferencian en que en los compuestos iónicos se ceden y aceptan electrones, mientras que en los covalentes de comparten.

- Se parecen en que los enlaces son formados por medio de los electrones de valencia y que en ambos compuestos la ley del octeto se debe cumplir.

Explanation:

¡Hola!

En este caso, debemos recordar que los compuestos iónicos se dan cuando se forman enlaces iónicos en los que el elemento más electronegativo tiene la capacidad de aceptar los electrones perdidos por el elemento menos electronegativo con el fin de cumplir la ley del octeto en la que 8 electrones deben ser exhibidos en la molécula. Por otro lado, los compuestos covalentes se forman cuando los átomos comparten sus electrones de valencia con el fin de alcanzar la ley del octeto.

De este modo encontramos que se diferencian en que en los compuestos iónicos se ceden y aceptan electrones, mientras que en los covalentes de comparten.

Por otro lado, ambos se parecen en que los enlaces son formados por medio de los electrones de valencia y que en ambos compuestos la ley del octeto se debe cumplir.

¡Saludos!
