Answer:

180m to the east

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance traveled in a specific direction. It is a vector quantity with both magnitude and direction. Therefore, the start and finish position is very paramount.

  point A runs 150m east,

   70m west

  100m east

                                       150m

                --------------------------------------------------------→

                                                                   70m

                                                         ←---------------------

                                                                   100m

                                                         -----------------------------------→

The displacement of the athlete  = 150 - 80 + 100  = 180m to the east

This is a two part question: What is the force of friction acting on a 100 kg steel slab at rest on a steel floor?
Crazy boy [7]
1) 0N... friction opposes the motion of an object, since the block is at rest there is no motion thus no friction

2) F=ma
= (5.5kg)(30m/s)

Accelerating charges radiate electromagnetic waves. Calculate the wavelength of radiation produced by a proton of mass mp moving
Iteru [2.4K]

Explanation:

Let m_p is the mass of proton. It is moving in a circular path perpendicular to a magnetic field of magnitude B.

The magnetic force is balanced by the centripetal force acting on the proton as :

\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=qvB

r is the radius of path,

r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}

Time period is given by :

T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}

T=\dfrac{2\pi m_p}{qB}

Frequency of proton is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m_p}

The wavelength of radiation is given by :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{2\pi m_pc}{qB}

So, the wavelength of radiation produced by a proton is \dfrac{2\pi m_pc}{qB}. Hence, this is the required solution.

If a receiver is overly selective:
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

C) only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results.

Explanation:

Selectivity is the ability of a receiver to respond only to a specific signal on a wanted frequency and reject other signals nearby in frequency.

If a receiver is overly selective, only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results. Whereas, if a receiver is underselective, the receiver can pick different signals on different frequencies at the same time.

The 0.5kg soccer ball moves toward the net with a force of 4N. What is its acceleration?​
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

8 m/s²

Explanation:

Given,

Force ( F ) = 4 N

Mass ( m ) = 0.5 kg

To find : -

Acceleration ( a ) = ?

Formula : -

F = ma

a = F / m

= 4 / 0.5

= 40 / 5

a = 8 m/s²

It's acceleration is 8 m/s².
