As per the question a frog jumps 5 m towards east.

Frog again jumps 2 m north.

Let the displacement along east is denoted by vector A and the displacement towards north is denoted as vector B.

Hence magnitude of A = 5 m

           Magnitude of B = 2 m

We are asked to calculate the total displacement.

Here the angle between them is 90 degree as A is towards east and B is towards north.

As per parallelogram law of vector addition,the magnitude of total displacement [R] will be-

                            R=\sqrt{ A^{2} +B^{2}+2AB\cos\theta}

                            =\sqrt{ 5^{2}+ 2^{2}+2*5*2 cos 90}

                            =\sqrt{25+4+0} m  [cos90= 0]

                            =\sqrt{29} m

                            = 5.38516 m   [ans]

I measured my pet dog (Mickey) to be able to run the length of my backyard 500 in 12 seconds. At this rate, how many miles can m
Georgia [21]

The dog runs  300240 miles.

<h3>What is the rate?</h3>

Rate refers to the pace at which something happens. We know that the easiest way to obtain the rate is by the use of proportion. Now we have been told that the dog is able to run 500 miles in 12 seconds.

If the dog runs 500 miles in 12 seconds

The dog runs x miles in 1 second

x = 500 * 1/12

x = 41.7 miles

In two hours we have 2 * 60 * 60 = 7200 seconds

If the dog runs 41.7 miles in 1 second

The dog runs x miles in 7200 seconds

x = 41.7 miles * 7200 seconds/ 1 second

x = 300240 miles

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

6.93 km/h

Explanation:

To calculate her average speed, we need the "speed" formula, which is:

average speed = distance / time

You plug in your numbers and it will give you the answer.

Speed = 4.5km/0.65hr

           = 6.923 km/h

Platinum has a density of 21.4 g/cm3. if thieves were to steal platinum from a bank using a small truck with a maximum payload o
slega [8]
We will convert the 1dm3 in terms of cm3 as follows:

1dm^3 = (10 cm)^3
= 1000 cm^3

The mass of platinum is equal to 900 lb. 
Then we will convert the mass in terms of grams as follows:
1 lb = 453.6 g
900 = 900 x 453.6 g
= 408240 g

Then density of platinum is equal to 21.4 g/cm^3 
We will calculate the volume of platinum in mass 408240 g as follows:
Volume of platinum = mass of platinum / density of platinum
= 408240 g / 21.4 g/cm^3 
= 19076.6 cm^3  

The total volume of platinum is 19076.6 cm^3
The volume of platinum in 1 L bar is 1000cm^3
So, to calculate the number of bars we will use the formula as follows;
Number of bars = volume of platinum available / volume of platinum required in 1 L bar
= 19076.6 cm^3 / 1000 cm^3
= 19
So, the number of bars are 19.
