Dimas [21]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<em>10.90km</em>

Explanation:

Magnitude of the total displacement is expressed using the equation

d = √dx²+dy²

dx is the horizontal component of the displacement

dy is the vertical component of the displacement

dy = -6.7sin27°

dy = -6.7(0.4539)

dy = -3.042

For the  horizontal component of the displacement

dx = -4.5 - 6.7cos27

dx = -4.5 -5.9697

dx = -10.4697

Get the magnitude of the bicyclist's total displacement

Recall that: d = √dx²+dy²

d = √(-3.042)²+(-10.4697)²

d = √9.2538+109.6146

d = √118.8684

<em>d = 10.90km</em>

<em>Hence the magnitude of the bicyclist's total displacement is 10.90km</em>

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

22Ω

Explanation:

if    V ⇒ voltage

      I ⇒ current

      R ⇒ resistance

V = IR

220 = 10 x R

220 / 10 = R

22 = R

Higher mass protostars enter the main sequence: at the same rate, but at a higher luminosity and temperature. slower and at a lo
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

<em>faster and at a higher luminosity and temperature.</em>

Explanation:

A protostar looks like a star but its core is not yet hot enough for fusion to take place. The luminosity comes exclusively from the heating of the protostar as it contracts. Protostars are usually surrounded by dust, which blocks the light that they emit, so they are difficult to observe in the visible spectrum.

A protostar becomes a main sequence star when its core temperature exceeds 10 million K. This is the temperature needed for hydrogen fusion to operate efficiently.

Stars above about 200 solar masses (Higher mass) generate power so furiously that gravity cannot contain their internal pressure. These stars blow themselves apart and do not exist for long if at all. A protostar with less than 0.08 solar masses never reaches the 10 million K temperature needed for efficient hydrogen fusion. These result in “failed stars” called brown dwarfs which radiate mainly in the infrared and look deep red in color. They are very dim and difficult to detect, but there might be many of them, and in fact they might outnumber other stars in the universe.

That is why higher mass protostars enter the main sequence at a <em>faster and at a higher luminosity and temperature.</em>

Gases are more prone to expansion and contraction than liquid . The biggest change in the volume in your thermometer was probabl
KiRa [710]

Answer:

In the air

Explanation:

There are three states of matter:

- Solids: in solids, the particles are tightly bond together by strong intermolecular forces, so they cannot move freely - they can only vibrate around their fixed position

- Liquids: in liquids, particles are more free to move, however there are still some intermolecular forces keeping them close to each other

- Gases: in gases, particles are completely free to move, as the intermolecular forces between them are negligible

For this reason, it is generally easier to compress/expand the volume of a gas with respect to the volume of a liquid.

In this problem, we are comparing water (which is a liquid) with air (which is a gas). From what we said above, this means that the change in volume is larger in the air rather than in the water.
