Answer:

40m to the East

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance moved in a specific direction. When writing the displacement value of a moving body, the direction must be put in the description.

Displacement takes into account the start and finish position of a body.

                                                 100m

Start         --------------------------------------------------------------  →

                                                               60m

                                       Final ←----------------------------------

Displacement  = 100m  - 60m  = 40m

 Therefore, the displacement is 40m due east

Sedbober [7]
<span>The volcanoes of USA are located along the west coast, at the subduction of the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. During the 20th century there were only two eruptions in continental USA; Lassen in 1915, and Mt St Helens in 1980. Alaska and Hawaii contain currently active volcanoes. hope this helps:)</span>

A conducting rod is moving through a magnetic field, as in the drawing. The magnetic field strength is 0.65 T, and the speed of
Contact [7]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

 Magnetic field strength (B) = 0.65 T

 Speed (v) = 2.3 m/s

 Induced emf (E) = ?

Formula for emf induced at the ends of the rod of length L which is moving with a speed of v is as follows.

                              E = BvL

Putting the given values into the formula as follows.

          E_{1} = BvL

                      = 0.65 T \times 2.3 m/s \times L

                      = 1.495 L .............. (1)

When magnetic field is changed to B_{2} = 0.48 T

Now, we assume that the speed be v_{2} to get the emf E_{2} = E_{1}.

Then,    0.48 T \times v_{2} \times L = 0.65 T \times 2.3 m/s \times L

                  v_{2} = 3.11 m/s

Therefore, we can conclude that the speed v of the rod be adjusted to reestablish the emf induced between the ends of the rod at its initial value is 3.11 m/s.

What causes the pressure that allows diamonds to form in the mantle?
IceJOKER [234]
Diamonds are supposed to formed about 90 miles below the surface of the earth in the mantle. Therefore, the weight of the earth overhead them produces the pressure to form the diamond. The rocks weight overhead the mantle outcomes in high pressure and diamonds essential high temperatures and pressure to form as of carbon.Diamonds form in the mantle in definite precincts where situations are right for them to do so. There just chances to be the right critical temperature-pressure-mineral environment in the mantle in definite areas for their formation.
