What is the displacement of a student who walks 12 m North, 5 m West, 3 m South,

Physics
1 answer:
Contact [7]3 years ago
6 0

When you draw all 4 of those moves, you see that he winds up 9m North and 11m West of where he started.

So the magnitude of his displacement is

D = √(9² + 11²)  m²

D = √(81 + 121)  m²

D = √(202)  m²

<em>D = 14.2 m</em>

The direction is arctan(-11/9) = <em>50.7° west of North</em>

Suppose a capacitor is fully charged by a battery and then disconnected from the battery. The positive plate has a charge +q and
dimaraw [331]

Answer:-q

Explanation:

Given

Capacitor is charged to a battery and capacitor acquired a charge of q i.e.

+q on Positive Plate and -q on negative Plate.

If the plate area is doubled and the plate separation is reduced to half its initial separation then capacitor becomes four times of initial value because capacitor is given by

c=\epsilon_0 \cdot \frac{A}{d}

where A=area of capacitor plate

d=Separation between plates

This change in capacitance changes the Potential such that new charge on the negative plate will remain same -q

What are the four answers (in order) to fill in these blanks?<br><br> URGENT
ser-zykov [4K]

In a circuit, the electromotive force can be said to be the "source" of the "pushed electrons". This push then creates what is known as a current, which is the flow of electric charge through the circuit. This flow can be slowed down or restricted by a resistor, and this is also what can be harnessed in order to use electric power.

Explanation:

The electromotive force is the potential difference produced by the battery in the circuit. When the circuit is connected to the battery, this potential difference causes the electron to start moving towards the point at higher potential: in this sense, the electromotive force is said to be the "source" of the "pushed electrons".

This flow of electrons moving in the circuit is known as current.

Then, in the circuit, it is possible to place a piece of circuit with a smaller cross-section that restricts the flow of electrons: this component is known as resistor, and its property of restricting the flow of electron is known as resistance.

In a circuit, electromotive force (V), current (I) and resistance (R) are related by Ohm's law:

V=RI

Finally, when a current passes through a resistor, part of the electric energy is converted into thermal energy, and some power is dissipated through the resistor. The power dissipated is given by

P=I^2 R

This power can be harnessed, for instance, if the resistor is connected to a light bulb: the energy is transformed into heat and light, and so the light bulb turns on, providing illumination.

Um avião, após deslocar-se 120 km para nordeste (NE), desloca-se 160 km para sudeste (SE). Sendo um quarto de hora o tempo total
Svetach [21]

Answer:

E) 800 km/h

Explanation:

The computation of the average vector velocity module of the plane, at that time is shown below:

The displacement vector is

d^2 = d1^2 + d2^2

where,

d1 = northeast displacement

d2 = southeast displacement

Now

d^2 = (120)^2 + (160)^2

= 14400 + 2560

= 40000

= √40000

d = 200 km

Now the average velocity is

V = ΔS ÷ Δt

= 200 ÷ 1 ÷ 4

= 200 × 4

=  800 km/h
