A bicyclist starts at point P and travels around a triangular path that takes her through points Q and R before returning to the
REY [17]

Answer:

Displacement by cyclist is zero.

Explanation:

In the given question bicyclist is travelling in a rectangular track having P , Q and R edges.

The bicyclist starts from P and travel through Q and R and returned to P again.

We need to find its displacement.

We know displacement  of a body is its difference between its initial position to final position.

Here in the given question the bicyclist returns to P again.

Therefore, total displacement by bicyclist is zero.

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 60.7 kg astronaut is floating in space. She takes her 3.1 kg astronaut drill from her toolbelt and throws it to the right. It
Sati [7]

Answer:

p to the left

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum "total momentum of an isolated system remains constant".

we consider astronaut and astronaut drill as an isolated system. If the drill gain momentum p to the right so in order for momentum to remain constant the astronaut will gain the same momentum but in opposite direction i.e momentum p to the left.

Initial momentum = 0 ( before she throw astronaut belt)

Final momentum = p - p = 0 (After she throw astronaut belt)

Hence momentum of the system remains constant i.e zero.

An initially stationary object experiences an acceleration of 6 m/s2 for a time of 15 s. How far will it travel during that time
Arisa [49]

Explanation:

Distance = (intial speed)X(Time) + 1/2(acceleration)X(Time) [Third equation of motion]

As initial speed is zero, therefore;

Distance = 1/2(acceleration)X(Time)

              = 1/2 (6 X 15)

              = 1/2 (90)

              = 45 meters

Hence, the object traveled 45 meters.

Consider that a ray of light is travelling from glass to water. The refractive index of water is 1.30 (i e n . ., 1.30 w = ) and
Bess [88]

Answer:

\theta_i=49.88^{\circ}

Explanation:

Total internal reflection can happen when light goes from a medium with higher refractive index (in this case, glass) to a medium with lower refractive index (in this case, water).

Snell's Law tells us that n_isin\theta_i=n_rsin\theta_r, where the <em>i</em> stands for incident (in this case, glass) and the <em>r</em> for refracted (in this case, water). We want to know when \theta_r=90^{\circ}, that is, when n_isin\theta_i=n_r, and this happens when the incident angle is:

\theta_i=arcsin(\frac{n_r}{n_i})

Which for our values means:

\theta_i=arcsin(\frac{1.3}{1.7})=arcsin(0.76470588235)=49.88^{\circ}
