Answer:

Total distance = 700 m

Displacement = 500 m

Explanation:

Notice that Jed travelled a total of 3 x 100 m = 300 m in the North direction, and 300 m + 100 m = 400 m in the East direction. Therefore the total distance he travelled is:  300 + 400 = 700 m.

But the actual displacement is given by the Pythagorean theorem as the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle of legs 300 m and 400 m:

displacement = \sqrt{300^2+400^2} =\sqrt{250000} =500\,m

liraira [26]

Answer:

1) λ < 2d,  2)  nfrared imaging technique, 3) each color there is a different index of refraction

Explanation:

We are going to answer the three questions

1) When x-rays pass through matter in order to be dispersed, their wavelength must be of the order of the length of separation in the atoms and molecules of the body, in solid bones this length is similar and they scatter and reflect the x-rays therefore they can be observed, the fat and the soft tissue have a much greater separation therefore the x-rays cannot be reflected and consequently it is not observable by this technique.

2) At airports they use the infrared imaging technique, where the image is taken for the infrared wavelength, which is the heat part of the electromagnetic spectrum; consequently, when the image is viewed, the hottest areas appear brighter and, since when a person has a virus, his temperature rises, his temperature rises, it is possible to observe people with a higher temperature.

3) when white light hits a prism it is refracted with the equation

            n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where the incidence of refraction depends on the wavelength, therefore for each color there is a different index of refraction and consequently the light is separated in its different colors.

At 96° F the saturation density of air is 0.04 kg/m3. If the weather report says the relative humidity is 90 % when the tempera
nalin [4]

Answer:

The value is  H  =  0.036 \ kg/m^3

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The saturation density of air is \rho =  0.04 \ kg/m^3

   The temperature for this saturation density to occur  T_s  =  96^o F

    The relative humidity at this temperature is  R_h  =  90\%  =  0.90

Generally the relative humidity is mathematically represented as

      R_H  = \frac{H}{\rho}

Here H represents humidity

=> 0.90 =  \frac{H}{0.04}

=>  H  =  0.90 * 0.04

=>  H  =  0.036 \ kg/m^3

How are electro magnets different from other magnets
katen-ka-za [31]

An electromagnet is made from a coil of wire which acts as a magnet when an electric current passes through it. Often an electromagnet is wrapped around a core of ferromagnetic material like steel, which enhances the magnetic field produced by the coil.
