John walks 1.00 km north, then turns right and walks 1.00 km east. His speed is 1.50 m/s during the entire stroll.a) What is the

magnitude of his displacement, from beginning to end?b) If Jane starts at the same time and place as John, but walks in a straight line to the endpoint of John's stroll, at what speed should she walk to arrive at the endpoint just when John does?

Answer:

(a) 1.414 km

(b) 1.06 m/s

Explanation:

(a) For John:

Distance = 1 km north and then 1 km east

Speed = 1.5 m/s

total distance traveled = 1 + 1 = 2 km = 2000 m

Time taken to travel = Distance / speed

t = 2000 / 1.5 = 1333.3 seconds

Displacement = \sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}}=1.414 km

(b) For jane :

Time is same as john = 1333.33 second

Distance = 1.414 km = 1414 m

Speed = distance / time = 1414 / 1333.33 = 1.06 m/s

If you have a 1.0 m aqueous solution of NaCl, by how much will it increase the water’s boiling point, if KB = 0.512 °C/m? In oth
fgiga [73]

<u>Answer:</u> The elevation in boiling point is 1.024°C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the elevation in boiling point, we use the equation:

\Delta T_b=ik_b\times m

where,

i = Van't Hoff factor = 2 (for NaCl)

\Delta T_b = change in boiling point  = ?

k_b = boiling point constant = 0.512^oC/m

m = molality = 1.0 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta Tb=2\times 0.512^oC/m\times 1.0m\\\\\Delta Tb=1.024^oC

Hence, the elevation in boiling point is 1.024°C.

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, what is the direction of the force on the test charge?
svetlana [45]

Explanation:

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, it will exert the force in the test charge in the direction of electric field vector. We know that the direction of electric field is given by electric field lines. The field lines for a positive charge is outwards. The electric force acting on the charge is given by :

F = q E

Hence, this is the required solution.

A group of students is measuring the change in momentum of an object. Which set of lab equipment would be most in measuring the
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The momentum of an object is defined as the mass of the object times the velocity of the object, as P = m*v.

So the equipment needed would be:

Something to measure the mass of the object, like a balance.

Something to measure the speed of the object, like a doppler radar, or a simpler thing may be a cronometer, with that you can measure the amount of time that the object needs to travel a given distance, and with that you can obtain the speed of the object.

Now you can notice that speed is different than velocity, this is true, velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, then you need something to fix the direction in which the object moves, in this way you can determine the velocity.
