4 0

Answer:

Ok, so the car has traversed a total of 2 + 4 + 2 + 6 = 14 miles.

That's the car's distance! :)

For the displacement, you can draw out a diagram. I'll try my best to make one using a keyboard xDDD

 -    -   -   -    |

 |                  |

 |    -   -    -  start  -   end!

So, this is the journey of the car: Going two up, 4 left, 2 down, and 6 right.

This ends up 2 to the right of the beginning!

That's a 2 mile displacement :)

Can you give me brainliest for my splendid diagram? xD

A 9-μC positive point charge is located at the origin and a 6 μC positive point charge is located at x = 0.00 m, y = 1.0 m. Find
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The coordinates of the point is (0,0.55).

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge q_{1}=9\times10^{-6}\ C at origin

Second charge q_{2}=6\times10^{-6}\ C

Second charge at point P = (0,1)

We assume that,

The net electric field between the charges is zero at mid point.

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

0=\dfrac{k\times9\times10^{-6}}{d^2}+\dfrac{k\times6\times10^{-6}}{(1-d)^2}

\dfrac{(1-d)}{d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{6}{9}}

\dfrac{1}{d}=\dfrac{\sqrt{6}}{3}+1

\dfrac{1}{d}=1.82

d=\dfrac{1}{1.82}

d=0.55\ m

Hence, The coordinates of the point is (0,0.55).

Describe two reasons why an alpha particle is less penetrating than a beta or gamma particle.
uysha [10]
Alpha particles travel through the air they collide with oxygen and nitrogen molecules. While they collide with these molecules, they lose some energy until all energy are used up and they are absorbed. These particles can be absorbed by a sheet of paper or by the air. On the other hand, beta particles and gamma particles move faster than the alpha particles and are poor at ionizing atoms or molecules thus it takes more of the material to be able to absorb these particles.
