Answer:

Explanation:

i) The total distance traveled will be the sum total of individual distances traveled by the man.

If the man travels a distance if 1.5 m towards east ,then 2m towards south and 4.5 m towards east, the total distance traveled will be expressed as; 1.5m+2m+4.5m

= 8.0m

ii) In order to get the man resultant displacement, we will use the Pythagoras theorem. Since the man travels a distance if 1.5 m and 4.5m towards east, the total distance taken towards east will be 6.0m and the distance traveled towards south is 2.0m. The resultant displacement of the man is expressed as;

R = $\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2} }$

Note that the eastward direction is the x-direction while the south direction is the y-direction.

x = 6.0m and y = 2.0m

$R = \sqrt{6^{2}+2^{2} } \\R = \sqrt{36+4}\\ R = \sqrt{40} \\R = 6.32m$

The displacement of the man is 6.32m

An object 1,000 km above earths surface would accelerate

Verizon [17]

The acceleration which is gained by an object because of the gravitational force is called its acceleration due to gravity. Its SI unit is m/s2. Acceleration due to gravity is a vector, which means it has both a magnitude and a direction. The formula is ‘the change in velocity= gravity x time’ The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Earth is represented as g. It has a standard value defined as 9.80665 m/s2.[1]

Increase in Space Suit Pressure 0.0/3.0 points (graded) If the pressure in a space suit increases, how will each of the followin

Art [367]

Answer:

Flexibility Increases

Pre-breathe time decreases

Mass of suit decreases.

Explanation:

Spacesuits are designed for space shuttles when a person goes to explore the galaxy. The spacesuits shuttle era are pressurized at 4.3 pounds per inch. The gas in the suit is 100% of oxygen and there is more oxygen to breathe when the altitude of 10,000 is reached. This will decrease the breathing time and mass of suit.

block of mass 5kgriding on a horizontal frictionlessxy-plane surface is subjected tothree applied forces:→F1= 12√2N[ 45◦]→F2= (8

dsp73

Answer:

(i) See attached image for the drawing

(ii) net force given in component form: (20, 20)N with magnitude: $\sqrt{800} \,\,\,N$

Explanation:

First try to write all forces in vector component form:

The force F1 acting at 45 degrees would have multiplication factors of $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ on both axes, to take care of the sine and cosine projections. Therefore, the:

x-component of F1 is $F1_x=12\,\sqrt{2} \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =12\,\,N$

y-component of F1 is $F1_y=12\,\sqrt{2} \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =12\,\,N$

As far as force F2, it is given already in x and y components, then:

x-component of F2 = 8 N

y-component of F2 = -6 N (negative meaning pointing down the y-axis)

Force F3 has only component (upwards) in the y-direction

x-component of F3 = 0 N

y-component of F3 =14 N

The additions of all these component by component, gives the resultant force (R) acting on the 5 kg mass:

x-component of R = 12 + 8 = 20 N

y-component of R = 12 + 14 - 6 = 20 N

Therefore, the acceleration that the mass receives due to this force is given in component form as:

x-component of acceleration: 20 N / 5 kg = $4\,\,\,m/s^2$

y-component of acceleration: 20 N / 5 kg = $4\,\,\,m/s^2$

Now we can calculate the components of the velocity of this mass after 2 seconds of being accelerated by this force, using the formula of acceleration times time:

x-component of the velocity is: $v_x=4\,*\,2=8\,m/s$

y-component of the velocity is: $v_y=4\,*\,2=8\,m/s$

When making sweet tea, McDonalds adds the sugar while the tea is hot. The sugar is added at this step so that the tea can be as

Lilit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

we need the tea to be at first moist in order to get much more flavor. then supersaturated so that it increases the concentration of the flavor by it not being too sweet nor too salty. so just right.
