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°

A voltage is applied to a resistor,

ladessa [460]

Answer:

Explanation:

By Ohms Law, Voltage = Current * Resistance

Keeping the voltage the same and doubling the resistance, the current will be halved.

So the new current = 1.5/2 = 0.75A

Water runs into a fountain, filling all the pipes, at a steady rate of 0.750 m3>s. (a) How fast will it shoot out of a hole 4

kati45 [8]

Answer:

velocity = 472 m/s

velocity = 52.4 m/s

Explanation:

given data

steady rate = 0.750 m³/s

diameter = 4.50 cm

solution

we use here flow rate formula that is

flow rate = Area × velocity .............1

0.750 = $\frac{\pi }{4}$ × (4.50× $10^{-2}$ )² × velocity

solve it we get

velocity = 472 m/s

and

when it 3 time diameter

put valuer in equation 1

0.750 = $\frac{\pi }{4}$ × 3 × (4.50× $10^{-2}$ )² × velocity

velocity = 52.4 m/s
