The total displacement is equal to the total distance. For the east or E direction, the distance is determined using the equation:

d = vt = (22 m/s)(12 s) = 264 m

For the west or W direction, we use the equations:
a = (v - v₀)/t
d = v₀t + 0.5at²

Because the object slows down, the acceleration is negative. So,
-1.2 m/s² = (0 m/s - 22 m/s)/t
t = 18.33 seconds
d = (22 m/s)(18.33 s) + 0.5(-1.2 m/s²)(18.33 s)²
d = 201.67 m

Thus,
Total Displacement = 264 m +  201.67 m = 465.67 or  approximately 4.7×10² m.

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

a). v=2776 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of the water droplet for the fish be successful is

Taking the distance in axis 'x' and 'y'

x_{tx}=40cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.40m\\x_{ty}=23cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.23m

The time is the velocity in axis 'x' with the angle 70 so

t=\frac{0.40m}{v_{x}*cos(70)}

Now using the time in terms of velocity the motion in axis 'y' can find the velocity to be the fish successful

x_{yf}=x_{yo}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2}\\0.23m=0.40m\frac{vo*sin(70)}{vo*cos(70)} +\frac{1}{2}*9.8*(\frac{0.40}{vo*cos(70)} )^{2}\\0.23m=0.40m*vo*tan(70)+4.9*(\frac{0.16m^{2} }{vo^{2} *cos(70)^{2} }) \\vo^{2}cos(70)^{2}=\frac{0.16m^{2} }{0.177}\\vo=\sqrt{\frac{0.9021}{cos(70)^{2}}} \\vo=2.776 \frac{m}{s}

PilotLPTM [1.2K]
This is best explained through the use of an optics diagram, this is a little too complicated to explain in a short answer, and as I can't draw an appropriate diagram in this answer, I will point you to this excellent resource which explains what you have asked very well!

Go onto the BBC website (you should have access to it even if you aren't in the UK) and paste this after the BBC url,

"1.0 kg mass is attached to the end of a spring. The mass has an amplitude of 0.10 m and vibrates 2.0 times per second. Find its
prisoha [69]

Answer:

1.3m/s

Explanation:

Data given,

Mass,m=1.0kg,

Amplitude,A=0.10m,

Frequency,f=2.0Hz.

From the equation of a simple harmonic motion, the displacement of the object at a given time is define as

x=Acos\alpha \\

we can express the velocity by the derivative of the displacement,

Hence

V=-Awsin\alpha \\

at equilibrium, the velocity becomes

V=wA\\w=2\pi f

Hence if we substitute values we arrive at

V=2\pi fA\\V=2\pi *2*0.1\\V=1.3m/s

A man standing on a bus remains still when the bus is at rest. When the bus moves forward and then
Hoochie [10]
This is an example of inertia - the body keeps it's energy because there is no force applied to it. When we try to stop it's motion, it resists. A man is not rigidly attached to the bus, so he keeps moving forward, at least until he hits the front window from inside. Answer is D.

List atleast to conditions that could cause the pressure inside a sealed container of gas to increase
hjlf
There are exactly three ways that could happen:

1).  The container was heated, and the gas inside it got warmer.

2).  Some part inside the container moved somehow, and made
      the inside volume smaller, so the gas got scrunched into a
      smaller space.

3).  Somebody pumped some more gas into the container, so
      a greater amount of gas had to live in the same space.
