Answer:
a
b
Magnitude
Direction
West
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The first distance covered westward is ![d_w_1 = 18 \ m /tex] The first distance covered eastward is [tex]d_e1 = 12 \ m /tex] The second distance covered westward is [tex]d_w_2 = 28 \ m /tex] The second distance covered eastward is [tex]d_e2 = 14 \ m /tex] Generally the distance covered is mathematically represented as [tex]D = d_w1 + d_w2 + d_e1 + d_e2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=d_w_1%20%20%3D%20%2018%20%5C%20%20m%20%2Ftex%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%20%20The%20%20first%20distance%20covered%20eastward%20is%20%5Btex%5Dd_e1%20%3D%20%2012%20%5C%20%20m%20%2Ftex%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20The%20second%20distance%20covered%20westward%20is%20%5Btex%5Dd_w_2%20%20%3D%20%2028%20%5C%20%20m%20%2Ftex%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20The%20%20second%20distance%20covered%20eastward%20is%20%5Btex%5Dd_e2%20%3D%20%2014%20%5C%20%20m%20%2Ftex%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3EGenerally%20the%20distance%20covered%20is%20mathematically%20represented%20as%20%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20%5Btex%5DD%20%3D%20%20d_w1%20%2B%20d_w2%20%2B%20d_e1%20%2B%20d_e2)
=> 
=>
For the second question eastward is in the direction of the positive x-axis so it would be positive and westward is in the direction of the negative x-axis so it would be negative
The magnitude of the displacement is
=> 
=>
The direction is west
Answer: Machanical advantage of the machine is 1.86
Explanation: Machanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the Force to overcome which is the load in this case 24kg * 10= 240N to the force exerted(Effort) to overcome the load in this case 129N.
So, we have
MA = load/effort
= 240N/129N
= 1.86.
The time for the echo to return is directly proportional to the distance. vw = fλ. In a given medium under fixed conditions, vw is constant, so that there is a relationship between f and λ; the higher the frequency, the smaller the wavelength.

This is another one of those muddy misleading questions, followed by
a muddy group of choices from which an answer must be selected.
a). is absurd. There's no such thing as a "balanced force", only
a balanced group of forces.
b). is probably the choice the question is aiming for.
c). is not so. The engines of an airplane do plenty of work lifting the plane
off the ground, although the force of the engines is never directed upward.
d). is really awkward. The object's motion is almost never the cause of the force.
The force is almost always the cause of the object's motion.
Now for the big 800-lb gorilla in the room: No moving object needs to be involved
in order for energy to be flowing or work to be getting done.
-- A radio wave radiates through space. Straighten out a wire coat-hanger and
stick it up in the air where the radio wave can pass by it. Electrical current flows
through the wire, and you can drain the electrical energy out the bottom of it.
-- A light bulb is shining. Some distance away, something it's shining on
gets warm, because of the heat energy that has shot across to it from the
light bulb and soaked into it.
-- A lightning bolt jumps from the ground to a passing cloud. Or, if you feel
more comfortable with it, a lightning bolt jumps from a cloud to the ground.
It doesn't matter. Either way, there's enough energy splashing around to
ignite houses, zap TVs and computers, melt concrete, vaporize water, and
light up a city. Although nothing is moving.
