A jogger travels a route that has two parts. The first is a displacement of 3 km due south, and the second involves a displaceme

nt that points due east. The resultant displacement + has a magnitude of 3.85 km. (a) What is the magnitude of , and (b) what is the direction of + as a positive angle relative to due south? Suppose that - had a magnitude of 3.85 km. (c) What then would be the magnitude of , and (d) what is the direction of - relative to due south?

Answer:

a) 2.41 km

b) 38.8°

Questions c and d are illegible.

Explanation:

We can express the displacements as vectors with origin on the point he started (0, 0).

When he traveled south he moved to (-3, 0).

When he moved east he moved to (-3, x)

The magnitude of the total displacement is found with Pythagoras theorem:

d^2 = dx^2 + dy^2

Rearranging:

dy^2 = d^2 - dx^2

dy = \sqrt{d^2 - dx^2}

dy = \sqrt{3.85^2 - 3^2}  = 2.41 km

The angle of the displacement vector is:

cos(a) = dx/d

a = arccos(dx/d)

a = arccos(3/3.85) = 38.8°

SashulF [63]

Answer:

 L = 41.09 Kg m2 / s      The angular momentum does not depend on the time

Explanation:

The definition of angular momentum is

        L = r x p

Where blacks indicate vectors

Let's apply this definition our case. Linear momentum

      p = m v

Let's replace

      L = m r x v

The given function is

      x = 6.00 i ^ + 4.15 t j ^

We look for speed

     v = dx / dt

     v = 0 + 4.15 j ^

To evaluate the angular momentum one of the best ways is to use determinants

     L = m \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\6&4.15t&0\\0&4.15&0\end{array}\right]

      L = m 6 4.15 k ^

The other products give zero

Let's calculate

      L = 1.65 6 4.15 k ^

      L = 41.09 Kg m2 / s

The angular momentum does not depend on the time

A hole is drilled in a metal plate. When the metal is raised to a higher temperature, what happens to the diameter of the hole?
zysi [14]

Answer:

The diameter of the hole increases

Explanation:

Metals expand and contract with temperature. Whenever metal is heated, it usually expands in relation to its thermal expansivity. This expansion leads to a slight increase in surface area.

Once the surface area of the metal changes, this means that the dimensions of the whole metal surface changed. As a result, the diameter of the hole drilled in the metal plate will change also. In our case, the diameter of the hole will increase.

I believe the answer would be mass. Low mass stars and medium mass stars often become white dwarfs when they die while high mass stars explode in violent explosions called supernovas and usually leave behind a black hole or a neutron star.
