You are in downtown Chicago (where streets run N-S and E-W). You started from 600 N. Michigan Avenue, and walked 3 blocks toward

north, 4 blocks toward west, and 1 block toward north to a train station. Length of one block is 100 [m]. What is the magnitude and direction of your displacement from the start position?

Answer:

Displacement is 565.69 m at 45° west of north

Explanation:

Let north represent positive y axis and east represent positive x axis.

We have journey started from 600 N. Michigan Avenue, and walked 3 blocks toward north, 4 blocks toward west, and 1 block toward north to a train station.

3 blocks toward north = 300 j m

4 blocks toward west = -400 i m

1 blocks toward north = 100 j m

Total displacement = -400 i + 400 j m

Magnitude

     s=\sqrt{(-400)^2+400^2}=565.69m

Direction,

     \theta =tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{400}{-400}\right )=135^0

     Direction is 45° west of north.

Displacement is 565.69 m at 45° west of north

We actually cant, really. Black Holes are really very powerful and don't just happen in some random place in the cosmos. We have got shots of Black holes that you cannot even see, but all the other big black holes that look like something straight of a sci-fi movie that look real, are really just photo- shopped. good question. Hope This Helped.

what would happen to the simple circuit if an additional wire were added to the circuit to connect the terminals of the bulb to
lilavasa [31]

As current increases, the wires heat which can cause a fuse to blow or a circuit breaker to trip. As additional branches are added to a parallel circuit, the overall resistance of the circuit decreases. A decrease in resistance creates an increase in current.

<h3>What is a Simple circuit ?</h3>

A battery (or other energy source), a light bulb (or other energy-consuming device), and conducting wires that connect the two terminals of the battery to the two ends of the light bulb make up a simple electric circuit.

  • Three elements make up an electric circuit: a power source, such as a battery or the mains. a lightbulb-like energy receiver an energy conduit, such as a wire

The flagpole is held vertical by two ropes. The first of these ropes has a tension in it of 100 N and is at an angle of 60° to t
KatRina [158]

Answer:

T₂ = 123.9 N,  θ = 66.2º

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we use the law of equilibrium, since the diaphragm does not appear, let's use the adjoint to see the forces in the system.

The tension T1 = 100 N, we create a reference frame centered on the pole

X axis

       T₁ₓ - T_{2x} = 0

        T_{2x}= T₁ₓ

Y axis y

      T_{1y} + T_{2y} - 200N = 0

      T_{2y} = 200 -T_{1y}

let's use trigonometry to find the component of the stresses

         sin 60 = T_{1y} / T₁

         cos 60 = t₁ₓ / T₁

         T_{1y} = T₁ sin 60

         T1x = T₁ cos 60

         T_{1y}y = 100 sin 60 = 86.6 N

         T₁ₓ = 100 cos 60 = 50 N

for voltage 2 it is done in the same way

         T_{2y} = T₂ sin θ

         T₂ₓ = T₂ cos θ

we substitute

         

           T₂ sin θ= 200 - 86.6 = 113.4

           T₂ cos θ = 50              (1)

to solve the system we divide the two equations

           tan θ = 113.4 / 50

           θ = tan⁻¹ 2,268

           θ = 66.2º

we caption in equation 1

           T₂ cos 66.2 = 50

           T₂ = 50 / cos 66.2

           T₂ = 123.9 N

A spherical asteroid of average density would have a mass of 8.7×1013kg if its radius were 2.0 km.A)If you and your spacesuit ha
WITCHER [35]

A) 0.189 N

The weight of the person on the asteroid is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the asteroid on the person, at a location on the surface of the asteroid:

F=\frac{GMm}{R^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

8.7×10^13 kg is the mass of the asteroid

m = 130 kg is the mass of the man

R = 2.0 km = 2000 m is the radius of the asteroid

Substituting into the equation, we find

F=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)(130 kg)}{(2000 m)^2}0.189 N=

B) 2.41 m/s

In order to orbit just above the surface of the asteroid (r=R), the centripetal force that keeps the astronaut in orbit must be equal to the gravitational force acting on the astronaut:

\frac{GMm}{R^2}=\frac{mv^2}{R}

where

v is the speed of the astronaut

Solving the formula for v, we find the minimum speed at which the astronaut should launch himself and then orbit the asteroid just above the surface:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)}{2000 m}}=2.41 m/s

2. A water wave has a speed of 4 m/s and 10
nikklg [1K]

Answer: 12.12 m

Explanation:

We have the following data:

v=4 m/s is the speed of the water wave

f=\frac{10 waves}{30 s}=0.3 Hz is the frequency of the water wave

Now, the speed of a wave is given by the following equation:

v=\lambda f

Where \lambda is the wavelength.

Isolating \lambda:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}

\lambda=\frac{4 m/s}{0.3 Hz}

Finally:

\lambda=12.12 m This is the water wave wavelength
