Answer:

r = 78.95 m

Explanation:

given,

Person Walk in east, r₁ = 45 m

Then he walk, r₂= 39 m in the direction of 40◦ North of East.

writing the total displacement in x- direction

 r₁ₓ  = 45 m

 r₂ₓ = 39 cos 40°

  r₂ₓ = 29.87 m

total displacement in x-direction

rₓ = r₁ₓ + r₂ₓ

rₓ = 45 + 29.87

rₓ = 74.87 m

displacement in y-direction

r_{1y} = 0 m

r_{2y} = 39 sin 40°

r_{2y} = 25.07 m

total displacement in y- direction

  r_y = 25.07 m

using Pythagoras theorem for the magnitude calculation

 r = \sqrt{r_x^2 + r_y^2}

 r = \sqrt{74.87^2 +25.07^2}

        r = 78.95 m

The magnitude of total displacement is equal to 78.95 m.

A force F→=(cx-3.00x2)iˆ acts on a particle as the particle moves along an x axis, with F→ in newtons, x in meters, and c a cons
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done = ∫Fdx

= ∫(cx-3.00x²)   dx

[ c x² / 2 - 3 x³ / 3 ]₀²

= change in kinetic energy

= 11-20

= - 9 J

[ c x² / 2 -  x³   ]₀² = - 9

c x 2² / 2 - 2³ = -9

2c - 8 = -9

2c = -1

c = - 1/2

A student wants to create a 6.0V DC battery from a 1.5V DC battery. Can this be done using a transformer alone
shusha [124]

Answer:

Therefore, we need an invert, and a rectifier, along with the transformer to do the job.

Explanation:

A transformer, alone, can not be used to convert a DC voltage to another DC voltage. If we apply a DC voltage to the primary coil of the transformer, it will act as short circuit due to low resistance. It will cause overflow of current through winding, resulting in overheating pf the transformer.

Hence, the transformer only take AC voltage as an input, and converts it to another AC voltage. So, the output voltage of a transformer is also AC voltage.

So, in order to convert a 6 V DC to 1.5 V DC we need an inverter to convert 6 V DC to AC, then a step down transformer to convert it to 1.5 V AC, and finally a rectifier to convert 1.5 V AC to 1.5 V DC.

<u>Therefore, we need an invert, and a rectifier, along with the transformer to do the job.</u>

Which statement explains the polarity of a water molecule?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

D. The oxygen side is partially negative because electrons are pulled toward the oxygen side.

Explanation:

The water molecule is polar by the virtue of covalent bonds and the hydrogen bonds within and between its molecule.

The oxygen side is partially negative because the electrons are pulled toward the oxygen side.

Between oxygen and hydrogen that makes up the water molecule, oxygen is more electronegative.

An electronegative atom has more affinity for electrons. Since the electrons in the molecule of water is shared between hydrogen and oxygen, the more electronegative specie which is water draws the electron more to itself.

This leaves a net negative charge on the oxygen atom.
