You are standing on a street corner with your friend. You then travel 14.0 m due west across the street and into your apartment

building. You travel in the elevator 22.0 m upward to your floor, walk 12.0 m north to the door of your apartment, and then walk 6.0 m due east to your balcony that overlooks the street. Your friend is standing where you left her.
Now how far are you from your friend?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall express each displacement vectorially , i for each unit displacement towards east , j for northward displacement and k for vertical displacement .

14 m due west = - 14 i

22.0 m upward in the elevator = 22 k

12 m north = 12 j

6.00 m east = 6 i

Total displacement = - 14 i + 22 k + 12 j + 6 i

D = - 8 i + 12 j + 22 k

magnitude = √ ( 8² + 12² + 22² )

= √ ( 64 + 144 + 484 )

= √ 692

= 26.3 m

Net displacement from starting point = 26.3 m .

Determine the mass of Ar in 1.00 liter of a gas mixture at 25oC which contains 0.300 atm of Ne and has a total pressure of 4.00
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The mass of Ar is 36.91g

Explanation:

The gas mixture consist of Neon(Ne) and Argon(Ar)

Partial pressure of Ar = total pressure of mixture - partial pressure = 4 - 0.3 = 3.7 atm

Mole fraction of Ar = partial pressure of Ar ÷ total pressure of mixture = 3.7/4 = 0.925

Mass of Ar = 0.925 × molecular weight of Ar = 0.925 × 39.9 = 36.91g

If the resultant of two velocity vectors of equal magnitude is also of the same magnitude, then which statement must be correct?
Tamiku [17]

The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°.

Why?

We can solve the problem and find the correct option using the Law of Cosine.

Let A and B, the given two sides and R the resultant (sum),

Then,

R=A=B

So, using the law of cosines, we have:

R^{2}=A^{2}+B^{2}+2ABCos(\alpha)\\ \\A^{2}=A^{2}+A^{2}+2*A*A*Cos(\alpha)\\\\0=A^{2}+2*A^{2}*Cos(\alpha)\\\\Cos(\alpha)=-\frac{A^{2}}{2*A^{2}}=-\frac{1}{2}\\\\\alpha =Cos(-\frac{1}{2})^{-1}=120\°

Hence, we have that the angle between the vectors is 120°. The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°

Have a nice day!
