Answer:

The average velocity has magnitude = 10 km/h , direction: east

Explanation:

In order to find the average velocity of the car we need to know the final and initial positions, and the time that took to get from one to the other.

Notice that since its movement was 60 km straight east and then from there 40 km straight west, the car is positioned at 20 km to the east of its initial departure point. therefore the vector change in position is a vector 20 km in magnitude, and direction towards the east.

Since it took the car a total of 1.33 hours plus 0.67 hours to reach its final position, the total time elapsed is: 1.33 + 0.67 hours = 2 hours.

Then,the velocity vector has magnitude; 20 km / 2 hours = 10 km/hour

As we mentioned above. the direction of the velocity vector is east.

Oceanic water particles mainly move in circles; is this movement greater on the ocean's surface or below the surface? Explain yo

goblinko [34]

I think that the oceanic water particles mainly move in circles greater in the oceans surface because of how big the waves can be and how wind and air impact the motion. The water particles move more on the surface because of the other factors that impact it such as people, wind, air, etc...

a runner starts from rest and has an acceleration of 3 m/s^2. How fast is she running after 1.1 seconds

grigory [225]

Acceleration x time = velocity

Since you're given acceleration and time, just plug the values into the equation.

3 $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ x 1.1 s = ?

Solve that equation, and remember your velocity should be in m/s.

If y = 0.02 sin (30x – 200t) (SI units), the frequency of the wave is

leva [86]

Answer:

31.831 Hz.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

$\rm y = 0.02\sin(30x-200 t).$

The vertical displacement of a wave is given in generalized form as

$\rm y = A\sin(kx -\omega t).$

<em>where</em>,

A = amplitude of the displacement of the wave.
k = wave number of the wave = $\dfrac{2\pi }{\lambda}.$
$\lambda$ = wavelength of the wave.
x = horizontal displacement of the wave.
$\omega$ = angular frequency of the wave = $\rm 2\pi f$ .
f = frequency of the wave.
t = time at which the displacement is calculated.

On comparing the generalized equation with the given equation of the displacement of the wave, we get,

$\rm A=0.02.\\k=30.\\\omega =200.\\$

therefore,

$\rm 2\pi f=200\\\\\Rightarrow f = \dfrac{200}{2\pi}=31.831\ Hz.$

It is the required frequency of the wave.

If the result of your calculation of a quantity has si units kg•m^2/s^2•C, that quantity could be

Novosadov [1.4K]

It would be Joules.
Workdone is measured in Joules.
Workdone = Force * distance
Force = mass * acceleration
= kg * ms⁻²
= kgms⁻²

Distance = m

So, Force * distance
kgms⁻² * m

Apply laws of indices that says
x² * x³ = x²⁺³ = x⁵

Therefore, It would be kgm²s⁻²
m¹ * m¹ = m¹⁺¹ = m²
s⁻² is also = s / 2

The sensitivity of a measuring instrument is the value of the smallest quantity that can be read or estimated with it. What is t

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The smallest part of a millimeter that can be read with a digital caliper with a four digit display is 0.02mm. Thus, it has to be converted to centimetre. So, divide by 10, we then have 0.02/10= *0.002cm* not mm.
