Starting at (0,0) an object travels 36 meters north and then it covers 20 meters east. What is
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the pythagoras theorem, the displacement is expressed as;

d² = x²+y²

y = 36m (north)

x = 20m east

Substitute;

d² = 36²+20²

d² = 1296+400

d² = 1696

d = √1696

d = 41.18m

For the direction;

theta = tan^-1(y/x)

theta = tan^-1(36/20)

theta = tan^-1(1.8)

theta = 60.95°

Hence the magnitude is 41.18m and the direction is 60.95°

The density of a material in CGS system of units is 4g cm-³. In a system of units in which unit of length is 10 cm and unit of m
butalik [34]

\sf\underline{Solution:}

Here , the density of the material is 4g cm³ but it is not given in CGS system.

$\sf{As\:we\:know\:that:}$

$\sf\bold{Density=}$ $\sf\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}$

$\space$

\sf{Now,according \: to \:the\:question:}

$\sf\small{Density\:of\:the\:material=4}$ $\sf\dfrac{g}{cm^2}$

$\space$

$\sf{It\:is\:given\:that:}$

In the system of units the mass is 100gram.

$\space$

Hence,

$\sf{The\:mass\:unit\:for\:4g=}$ $\sf\dfrac{4}{100}$ $\sf{units}$

$\space$

In the system of units,the length is 10cm.

Henceforth,

$\sf\small{The\:length \:for\:1cm\:units=}$ $\sf\dfrac{1}{10}$ $\sf{units}$

$\space$

<u>☆</u><u> </u><u>Substitute</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>required</u><u> </u><u>values</u><u> </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>given</u><u> </u><u>formula</u><u>-</u>

$\sf\purple{Density=}$ $\sf\dfrac\purple{Mass}\purple{volume}$

$\space$

$\sf\underline\bold{Density\:of\:the\:material:}$

= $\sf\dfrac{4/100}{1/10^3}$ $\sf\bold{units}$

$\space$

= $\sf\dfrac{4/100}{1/1000}$ $\sf\bold{units}$

$\space$

= $\sf\dfrac{4000}{100}$ $\sf\bold{units}$

$\space$

$\sf\underline\bold\blue{=40\:units}$

$\sf\small{Therefore,option\:2nd\:is\:correct!}$
