A tennis ball moves 16 meters northward, then 22 meters southward, then 12 meters northward, and finally 32 meters southward.

Answer:

26 m southwards.

Explanation:

From a North, East, South, West coordinate plane, moving northwards implies positive distance. While moving southwards implies negative distance.

Thus;

It moves 16 meters northward; d = 16 m

It now moves 22 meters southward; d = -22 m

It moves 12 meters northward; d = 12 m

It moves 32 meters southward; d = -32 m

Thus, total magnitude = 16 - 22 + 12 - 32 = -26 m

Thus, the object travels 26 m southwards.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

a = g = 9.81[m/s^2]

Explanation:

This problem can be solve using the second law of Newton.

We know that the forces acting over the skydiver are only his weight, and it is equal to the product of the mass by the acceleration.

m*g = m*a

where:

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

a = acceleration [m/s^2]

Note: If the skydiver will be under air resistance forces his acceleration will be different.

Why is it important to use placebos and a double-blind approach in some studies
viktelen [127]
Another name for these two words is "constant" and you want to have a "constant", because you want something to compare your experimental group to, to see whether data had changed or not. So you have placebos or a double- blind to compare your experimental group to it and also so you know you don't have a bias or anything in the study.

You hold a spherical salad bowl 50 cm in front of your face with the bottom of the bowl facing you. The salad bowl is made of po
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

a) q = 39.29 cm ,  b)   h ’= - 3.929 cm  the image is inverted  and REAL

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the equation of the constructor

          1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length of the salad bowl, p and q are the distance to the object and the image

The metal salad bowl behaves like a mirror, so its focal length is

           f = R / 2

           f = 44/2

           f = 22 cm

a) Suppose that the distance to the object is p = 50 cm, let's find the distance to the image

           1 / q = 1 / f  - 1 / p

           1 / q = 1/22 - 1/50

           1 / q = 0.0254

            q = 39.29 cm

b) to calculate the size of the image we use the equation of magnification

           m = h’/ h = - q / p

            h ’= - q / p h

            h ’= - 39.29 / 50 5

            h ’= - 3.929 cm

the negative sign means that the image is inverted

as the rays of light pass through the image this is REAL

You are using a hydrogen discharge tube and high quality red and blue light filters as the light source for a Michelson interfer
boyakko [2]

Answer:

final displacement = +24484.5 nm

Explanation:

The path difference when 158 bright spots were observed with red light (λ1 = 656.3 nm) is given as;

Δr = 2d2 - 2d1 = 150λ1

So, 2d2 - 2d1 = 150λ1

Dividing both sides by 2 to get;

d2 - d1 = 75λ1 - - - - eq1

Where;

d1 = distance between the fixed mirror and the beam splitter

d2 = position of moveable mirror from splitter when 158 bright spots are observed

Now, the path difference between the two waves when 114 bright spots were observed is;

Δr = 2d'2 - 2d1 = 114λ1

2d'2 - 2d1 = 114λ1

Divide both sides by 2 to get;

d'2 - d1 = 57λ1

Where;

d'2 is the new position of the movable mirror from the splitter

Now, the displacement of the moveable mirror is (d2 - d'2). To get this, we will subtract eq2 from eq1.

(d2 - d1) - (d'2 - d1) = 75λ1 - 57λ2

d2 - d1 - d'2 + d1 = 75λ1 - 57λ2

d2 - d'2 = 75λ1 - 57λ2

We are given;

(λ1 = 656.3 nm) and λ2 = 434.0 nm.

Thus;

d2 - d'2 = 75(656.3) - 57(434)

d2 - d'2 = +24484.5 nm
