Answer:

The displacement of RV for the two days is 118.85 km at an angle of 67.75° with the east direction.

Explanation:

Given:

Distance moved in the East direction (d) = 45 km

Distance moved in the North direction (D) = 110 km

Displacement is defined as the difference of final position and initial position.

Let us draw a diagram representing the above situation.

Point A is the starting point and point C is the final position of RV.

So, the displacement of RV in two days is given as:

Displacement = Final position - Initial position = AC

Now, triangle ABC is a right angled triangle with AB = 45 km, BC = 110 km, and AC being the hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have:

AC^2=AB^2+BC^2\\\\AC=\sqrt{AB^2+BC^2}

Plug in the given values and solve for AC. This gives,

AC=\sqrt{(45\ km)^2+(110\ km)^2}\\\\AC=\sqrt{2025+12100}\ km\\\\AC=\sqrt{14125}\ km\\\\AC=118.85\ km

Now, the direction of displacement with the east direction is given as:

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{BC}{AB})\\\\\theta =\tan^{-1}(\frac{110}{45})=67.75^\circ

Therefore, the displacement of RV for the two days is 118.85 km at an angle of 67.75° with the east direction.

Write down the condition required for the thermonuclear fusion.​
storchak [24]

Explanation:

The temperature must be hot enough to allow the ions of deuterium and tritium to have enough kinetic energy to overcome the Coulomb barrier and fuse together. The ions must be confined with a high ion density to achieve a suitable fusion reaction rate.

Consider the following three statements: (i) For any electro-magnetic radiation, the product of the wavelength and the frequency
Scilla [17]

Answer:

A and B

Explanation:

The relation between frequency and wavelength is shown below as:

c=frequency\times Wavelength

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

Thus, the product of the wavelength and the frequency is constant and equal to 3\times 10^8\ m/s

<u>Option A is correct.</u>

Given, Frequency = 1\times 10^{18}\ Hz

Thus, Wavelength is:

Wavelength=\frac{c}{Frequency}

Wavelength=\frac{3\times 10^8}{1\times 10^{18}}\ m

Wavelength=3\times 10^{-10}\ m

Also, 1 m = 3\times 10^{-10} Å

So,

<u>Wavelength = 3.0 Å</u>

<u>Option B is correct.</u>

As stated above, the speed of electromagnetic radiation is constant. Hence, each radiation of the spectrum travels with same speed.

<u>Option C is incorrect.</u>
