Answer: D. places where the magnetic field strength is either greater or less than the expected strength.

Explanation:

Magnetic anomaly refers to the change in the magnitude of the magnetic field of the Eatth with respect to the location's expected value.

Magnetic anomalies are places where the magnetic field strength is either greater or less than the expected strength. Therefore, the correct option is D.

A displacement vector is 34.0 m in length and is directed 60.0° east of north. What are the components of this vector? Northward
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

A)  29.4 m 17.0 m; B) 2 m

Explanation:

If a vector is 34.0 m in length and is directed 60.0° east of north (which means 30.0° over the horizontal), then its coordinates will be:

Horizontal: (34.0 m)cos(30.0°)=29.4 m

Vertical: (34.0 m)sin(30.0°)=17 m

If one person walks 8.0 meters in a straight line and then walks 5.0 meters in another straight line, then the minimum displacement would be to go back over his tracks, displacing himself 8m-5m=3m, while the maximum displacement would be going straight ahead, displacing himself 8m+5m=13m. Any answer outside this interval is impossible (2m).

How are objects in space able to “fall” into orbit?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

MRCORRECT has answered the question

Explanation:

Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pullson the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground.

A boat traveling across a river has a resultant velocity of 10 km/h and travels 34 degrees with respect to the shore. A) What is
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

a) 1.55 m/s

b) 2.3 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the boat travels across the river, if we define the river as the x-axis, then the velocity of the boat is only on the y-axis.

Then we can write the velocity of the boat in still water as:

S = (0, B)

Now, when the boat is on the river, the velocity of the boat will be equal to the velocity of the boat in still water plus the velocity of the river.

The velocity of the river is:

v = (R, 0).

Then the velocity of the boat in that river is:

V' = (0, B) + (R, 0) = (R, B)

Now, we know that the velocity of the boat is 10km/h, and it travels at an angle of 34° with respect to the shore.

We can use the Pythagoreans theorem to write the components of this velocity as:

x-axis component = 10km/h*cos(34°) = 8.29 km/h

y-axis component = 10km/h*sin(34°) =  5.59 km/h

Then the velocity of the boat can be written in components as:

velocity = ( 8.29 km/h,  5.59 km/h)

And we knew that the velocity of the boat was written as  (R, B)

Then we must have:

R = 8.29 km/h

B = 5.59 km/h

a) The speed of the boat in m/s:

We know that the speed of the boat is 5.59 km/h.

First, we know that:

1km = 1000m, then:

5.59 km/h = 5.59*(1000m)h = 5,590 m/h

And we know that:

1h = 3600s

Then we can write:

5,590 m/h = 5,590 m/(3600s) = 1.55 m/s

b) The speed of the river in m/s:

We know that the speed of the river is 8.29 km/h

Using the same reasoning as above, we can do the change of units as follows:

8.29 km/h = 8.29 (1000m)/(3600s) = 2.3 m/s
