If a crow flies west for 60 km and then south for 45 km, what is the direction of its displacement?

That's 105 km that he flew, or 65.2 miles !  I'm absolutely positive
that the crow must have landed and gotten some rest when you
weren't looking.  But that had no effect on his displacement when
he got where he was going, so we can continue to solve the problem:


The displacement is the distance and direction from the place
where the crow took off to the place where he landed.

-- It's distance is the hypotenuse of the right triangle whose legs
are 60 km and 45 km.

        D²  =  (60 km)²  +  (45 km)²

              =    3,600 km²  +  2,025 km²  =  5,625 km²

         D  =  √(5625 km²)  =  75 km .    
 
-- It's direction is the angle whose tangent is  (45 S / 60 W).

         tan⁻¹ (45/60)  =  tan⁻¹ (0.75)  =  36.9° south of west

                                                         =  53.1° west of south.

                                                         =  not exactly southwest but close.

A horizontal force of 400 N is exerted on a 2.0-kg ball as it rotates (at
frutty [35]

Answer:

the speed of the ball is 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of exerted force, F = 400 N

mass of the ball, m = 2 kg

radius of the circle, r = 0.5

The speed of the ball is calculated by applying centripetal force formula;

F = \frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\v^2 = \frac{Fr}{m}\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{Fr}{m}}\\\\ v = \sqrt{\frac{400*0.5}{2}}\\\\v = 10 \ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the ball is 10 m/s

A series circuit has a capacitor of 0.25 × 10⁻⁶ F, a resistor of 5 × 10³ Ω, and an inductor of 1H. The initial charge on the cap
viktelen [127]

Answer:

q = (3 + e^{-4000 t} - 4 e^{-1000 t})\times 10^{-6}

at t = 0.001 we have

q = 1.55 \times 10^{-6} C

at t = 0.01

q = 2.99 \times 10^{-6} C

at t = infinity

q = 3 \times 10^{-6} C

Explanation:

As we know that they are in series so the voltage across all three will be sum of all individual voltages

so it is given as

V_r + V_L + V_c = V_{net}

now we will have

iR + L\frac{di}{dt} + \frac{q}{C} = 12 V

now we have

1\frac{d^2q}{dt^2} + (5 \times 10^3) \frac{dq}{dt} + \frac{q}{0.25 \times 10^{-6}} = 12

So we will have

q = 3\times 10^{-6} + c_1 e^{-4000 t} + c_2 e^{-1000 t}

at t = 0 we have

q = 0

0 = 3\times 10^{-6} + c_1  + c_2

also we know that

at t = 0 i = 0

0 = -4000 c_1 - 1000c_2

c_2 = -4c_1

c_1 = 1 \times 10^{-6}

c_2 = -4 \times 10^{-6}

so we have

q = (3 + e^{-4000 t} - 4 e^{-1000 t})\times 10^{-6}

at t = 0.001 we have

q = 1.55 \times 10^{-6} C

at t = 0.01

q = 2.99 \times 10^{-6} C

at t = infinity

q = 3 \times 10^{-6} C

How many protons are in Calcium? (* Hint: The Atomic number of Calcium is 20).
ryzh [129]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 20

Explanation:

Atomic number is the number of proton and atom has. Each element has a specific number of protons, if the number of protons change, then this is a new element.

Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons and atom has.

                       Mass number = protons + neutrons

Data

Number of protons = ?

Atomic number = 20

Then,

           atomic number = number of protons = 20
