You walk six blocks east along 12th Street, then three blocks west, then one block east, then six blocks east, then seven blocks

west. Let the x axis point east and have its origin at your starting point. If all blocks are equal in size, what is the x component of your displacement, in blocks?

Displacement depends upon the path taken as it is a vector.

From your problem above we would have a total displacement of;
Defining +x direction as east and -x direction as west

6east-3west+1east+6east-7west

6-3+1+6-7=3 blocks east or + x-direction

So even though they walked a total of 17 blocks it ends up only being 3 blocks total in +xdirection that was travelled by displacement.

Any questions please ask.

A 10cm long wire is pulled along a U-shaped conducting rail in a perpendicular magnetic field. The total resistance of the wire
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

a)  v=4.0m/s

b)  B=2.958T

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Wire Length l=10cm=>0.10m

Resistance R=0.35

Force F=1.0N

Power P=4.0W

a)

Generally the equation for Power is mathematically given by

P=Fv

Therefore

v=\frac{P}{F}

v=\frac{4.0}{1.0}

v=4.0m/s

b)

Generally the equation for Magnetic Field is mathematically given by

B=\frac{\sqrt{PR}}{vl}

B=\frac{\sqrt{4*0.35}}{4*0.10}

B=2.958T

Kinetic energy is the energy of
Alina [70]

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.

The formula for kinetic energy is given as

KE = (0.5) m v²

where m = mass of object , v = speed of object.

an object having some speed and mass will have kinetic energy while an object at rest will not have any kinetic energy since the speed of object at rest is zero.

Since at rest speed is zero. an object has kinetic energy only when it is in motion.
