You drive 3.4 km in a straight line in a direction 6.9º east of north. If an alternate route to this same destination takes you

straight east and then turns directly north to arrive at the same point, find the distance you would have to drive north.

Answer:

You would have to drive in north direction 0.41km

Explanation:

We can solve this with trigonometry, We know that:

sin(\alpha )=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\where: \\opposite=north\\hypotenuse=distance

North=sin(6.9^o)*3.4km=0.41km

So the distance I will have to drive in north direction is 0.41km

Imagine Two Artificial Satellites Orbiting Earth At The Same Distance. One Satellite Has A Greater Mass Than The Other One? Whic
Bad White [126]

After reading this whole question, I feel like I've already
earned 5 points !

-- Two satellites at the same distance, different masses:

The forces of gravity between two objects are directly
proportional to the product of the objects' masses.  In
other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object on its surface are proportional to the mass of
the object.  In other words, people with more mass weigh more
on the Earth, and the Earth weighs more on them. 

If the satellites are both at the same distance from Earth,
then the Earth pulls on the one with more mass with greater
force, and also the one with more mass pulls on the Earth
with greater force.

-- Two satellites with the same mass, at different distances:

The forces of gravity between two objects are inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them. 
In other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object are inversely proportional to the square of
the distance between the object and the center of the Earth. 

If the satellites both have the same mass, then the Earth
pulls on the nearer one with greater force, and also the
nearer one pulls on the Earth with greater force.

-- Resistor in a circuit when the voltage changes:

The resistance depends on how the resistor was manufactured. 
Its resistance is marked on it, and doesn't change.  It remains
the same whether the voltage changes, the current changes,
the time of day changes, the cost of oil changes, etc.

If you increase the voltage in the circuit where that resistor is
installed, the current through the resistor increases.  If the current
remains constant, then you can be sure that somebody snuck over
to your circuit when you weren't looking, and they either installed
another resistor in series with the original one to make the total
resistance bigger, or else they snipped the original one out of the
circuit and quickly connected one with more resistance in its place.

Beginning at the NW corner of the intersection of Pine & 675, thence north 950 feet, thence west 380 feet, thence south 950
Serjik [45]

Answer:

this description is valid for mediadle displacement, bone is an acceptable description

Explanation:

The description of a person's position must be done with a position vector. These vectors must have magnitude, a given direction and a starting point.

In the description this has a starting point corner NO of pine and 675.

Each displacement occurs with respect to the previous one, indicating the magnitude of the displacement and its direction.

After analyzing  this description is valid for mediadle displacement, bone is an acceptable description
