Answer:

North

Explanation:

In an electromagnetic wave, the direction of the wave, the direction of the electric field and the direction of the magnetic field are all perpendicular to each other.

Therefore, we can  find the direction of the magnetic field by using the right hand rule. We have:

- Index finger: direction of motion of the wave --> toward the center of Earth

- middle finger: direction of the electric field --> west

- thumb: direction of the magnetic field --> north

So, the magnetic field points north.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

1199 miles

Explanation:

1 hour 30 minutes = 1 + 30/60 = 1.5 hours

2 hours 15 minutes = 2 + 15/60 = 2.25 hours

The distance she flew in the 1st segment is:

1.5*345 = 517.5 miles

The distance she flew in the 2nd segment is:

2.25 * 345 = 776.25 miles

Since the 2nd segment is 45 degree with respect to the 1st segment, this means that she has flown

776.25 * cos(45) = 549 miles in-line with the 1st segment and

776.25* sin(45) = 549 miles perpendicular to the 1st segment:

So the distance from the end to her starting position is

\sqrt{(517.5 + 549)^2 + 549^2} = 1199 miles

Based on its type of chemical bond, which of the following has the highest boiling point?
Sever21 [200]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Potassium chloride

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Potassium Chloride is an ionic compound and has ionic bond which is stronger than covalent bond in ethyl alcohol,water ,ammonia, and thus has the highest boiling point .
  • ionic bond is a type of bond that results from the transfer of electrons between metallic atoms and non-metallic atoms.

How do you do this question? Please include free body diagrams and clear explanation, so I can understand.
vagabundo [1.1K]

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram for each disc.

Disc A has three forces acting on it: 86.5 N up, T₁ down, and Wa down.

∑F = ma

86.5 N − T₁ − Wa = 0

Wa = 86.5 N − T₁

ma × 9.8 m/s² = 86.5 N − 55.6 N

ma = 3.2 kg

Disc B has three forces acting on it: T₁ up, T₂ down, and Wb down.

∑F = ma

T₁ − T₂ − Wb = 0

Wb = T₁ − T₂

mb × 9.8 m/s² = 55.6 N − 36.5 N

mb = 1.9 kg

Disc C has three forces acting on it: T₂ up, T₃ down, and Wc down.

∑F = ma

T₂ − T₃ − Wc = 0

Wc = T₂ − T₃

mc × 9.8 m/s² = 36.5 N − 9.6 N

mc = 2.7 kg

Disc D has two forces acting on it: T₃ up and Wd down.

∑F = ma

T₃ − Wd = 0

Wd = T₃

md × 9.8 m/s² = 9.6 N

md = 0.98 kg
