Answer:8.28 km

Explanation:  

Given

First it drifts 45^{\circ} 2.5 km

r_1=2.5cos45 i+2.5sin45 j

Secondly it drifts 60^{\circ} 4.70 km

r_{12}=4.7cos60 i-4.7sin60 j

After that it drifted along east direction 5.1 km

r_{23}=5.1 i

After that it drifts 55^{\circ} 7.2 km

r_{34}=-7.2cos55 i-7.2sin55 j

After that it drifts 5^{\circ} 2.8 km

r_{54}=-2.8cos5 i+2.8sin5 j

r_{5O}=\left [ 2.5cos45+4.7cos60+5.1-7.2cos55-2.8cos5\right ]\hat{i}+\left [ 2.5sin45-4.7sin60-7.2sin55+2.8sin5\right ]\hat{j}

r_{5O}=2.299\hat{i}-7.95\hat{j}

|r_{5O}|=8.28 km

for direction

tan\theta =\frac{7.95}{2.299}=3.4580

\theta =73.87^{\circ} south of east

If you know the distance an object has traveled in a certain amount of time you can determine
Nutka1998 [239]
With that information, you can determine the object's speed.
Just divide the distance covered by the time to cover the distance.

If you also know the direction the object moved, then you can
determine its velocity.  If you don't, then you can't.

galben [10]

What Newton discovered is that  gravity extends throughout the universe.

<h3>What is gravity?</h3>

The term gravity refers to the force that acts on a body in the universe. It is gravity that makes an object to fall when it is thrown up. The force of gravity acts on every object in the universe and it extends through the universe.

Humans have always known about gravity when they fall from a height and when they threw things up. However, human did not know that gravity extends throughout the universe.

Thus, what Newton discovered is that  gravity extends throughout the universe.

a distant galaxy is studied with a radio telescope x ray telescope and optical light telescope. the images form which set of mus
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The modern instruments or we can say the different levels of telescopes are used to explore and study the distant galaxies. i.e the Hubble telescope is out there providing the data regarding the different properties of the celestial entities which in other case is not visible to the human naked eye.

Explanation:

  • Scientists and research workers are in constant search for more answers as they explore the universe and implement the laws of physics on the celestial entities. But, most of the objects inside the universe are not visible to human naked eye, as they are far from sight and thus more advanced form of instruments like the x-ray, optical, and light telescopes are used to determine the different properties of the celestial entities inside the universe.
  • As, these telescopes includes the most recent "Hubble telescope", which is out there inside the space to explore the universe and more over the galaxies by subjecting them with x-rays and then provide us with a very rough but valid results to study the distant galaxies.
