Answer:

48.4 km, 34.3° north of east

Explanation:

Let's say east is the +x direction and north is the +y direction.

Adding up the x components of the vectors:

x = 20 cos 60 + 30 + 0

x = 40 km

Adding up the y components of the vectors:

y = 20 sin 60 + 0 + 10

y = 27.3 km

The magnitude of the displacement is:

d = √(x² + y²)

d = 48.4 km

The direction is:

θ = atan(y/x)

θ = 34.3° north of east

mixer [17]
<h2>~<u>Solution</u> :-</h2>
  • Here, the <u>moment arm</u> is defined as follows;

The magnitude of two forces, which when acting at right angle produce resultant force of VlOkg and when acting at 60° produce resultant of Vl3 kg. These forces are D. gravitational force of attraction towards the centre of the earth. A sample of metal weighs 219 gms in air, 180 gms in water, 120 gms in an <em>unknown fluid</em>.

Which describes the relationship between photon energy and the color of light?
Andrew [12]
Photon energy is directly proportional to the frequency of electromagnetic radiation.
(That would also mean that it's inversely proportional to the wavelength.)

So the photon energy increases as you scan the chart of visible colors
moving from the red end of the rainbow to the blue end.
