Using the midpoint and the distance formulas, calculate he coordinate of the midpoint and the length of the segment.
arsen [322]

Answer:

Explanation:

Formula to calculate the distance between two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is,

d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Therefore, length of CD having coordinates C(3,1) and D(3, 3),

CD = \sqrt{(3-3)^2+(1-3)^2}

     = 2 units

Formula to find the midpoint of CD is,

M = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

   = (\frac{3+3}{2},\frac{1+3}{2})

   = (3, 2)

Therefore, length of CD = 2 units and (3, 2) are the coordinates of the midpoint of CD.

A ski resort consists of a few chairlifts and several interconnected downhill runs on the side of a mountain, with a lodge at th
Aleks04 [339]
  1. A sketch of the junction between one chairlift and two runs is shown in the image attached below.
  2. For this ski resort, it ultimately implies that the total number of lifts that are used in any closed loop would be equal to zero in accordance with Kirchhoff's loop rule.

<h3>What is Kirchhoff's loop rule?</h3>

Kirchhoff's loop rule is also referred to as Kirchhoff's second law or Kirchhoff's voltage law, and it states that the algebraic sum of all the electric potential differences around any closed loop is equal to zero.

<h3>How to connect two runs in series?</h3>

Since the chairlifts are analogous to batteries, and the runs are analogous to resistors, the two runs would represent resistors that are connected in series with the lift, which represents the battery. Similarly, these three runs can also be connected in parallel by altering the positions of the runs with the battery.

For this ski resort, it ultimately implies that the total number of lifts that are used in any closed loop would be equal to zero in accordance with Kirchhoff's loop rule.

Light of wavelength 550nm in air is found to travel at 1.96
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

ν = 5.45 x 10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

given,

wavelength of light = 550 nm

                                = 550 x 10⁻⁹ m

speed of light = 1.96 x 10⁸ m/s

speed of sound = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

frequency of the light = ?

we know.

v = \nu \lambda

frequency of the light in the liquid is same as the frequency of the light in the air.

 ν is the frequency of light

\nu = \dfrac{v}{\lambda}

\nu = \dfrac{3\times 10^{8}}{550\times 10^{-9}}

    ν = 5.45 x 10¹⁴ Hz

Hence, the frequency of light in the liquid is equal to ν = 5.45 x 10¹⁴ Hz

Three capacitors with individual capacitances of 2 μF, 5 μF, and 10 μF
rodikova [14]

Answer:

1.25C

Explanation:

When capacitance is in series we add them like this: 1/Ctotal = 1/C1 +1/C2 + 1/C3.....

1/C = 1/2 + 1/5 + 1/10 = 5 + 2 + 1/10 = 8/10

C = 10/8 = 1.25

Capacitance = Charge/potential difference(Q/V)

1.25 = Charge/12

Total charge = 1.25 ×12 =15coulombs
