Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Assuming that the hiker starts walking from the origin O as shown in the figure.

First, he walks 200 m west to point A (say), then he walks 100 m north to the final point B (say) as shown in the figure.

The final point B is in the north-west direction, therefore, the resulting point is in the north-west direction.

Hence, option (C) is correct.

At one point in the circuit, there is an LED and a resistor in parallel with one another. If you measure the voltage drop across
kifflom [539]

Answer:

C. The voltage drop across the resistor is 2.1V and nothing about the current through the resistor.

Explanation:

When connected in parallel, voltage across the resistances are the same. So if 2.1V was dropped across the LED then 2.1V was also dropped across the resistor. However, this tells us nothing about the current through the resistor. We can find the current across the resistor if we know the resistance of the resistor, but that's about it.

If it were a series connection, then the current would have been the same, but the voltage drop were another story.

What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a 3.45 g particle be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward-directed
Pani-rosa [81]

     charge must be equal to 5.74 ×10⁻⁵

 In the question it is said that the particle remains stationary which means the the net force on the particle is zero. So, the counterbalancing forces must be equal which means weight is equal to upward electric force.

     →    Fnet =0

     →    mg =  qE

 substituting the values we get :

         0.00345 × 9.81 =  q × 590

   →       q = 5.74 ×10⁻⁵

    Hence the charge must be equal to   5.74 ×10⁻⁵.

A boat takes off from a dock at 2.5 m/s and speeds up at 4.2 m/s squared for six seconds how far has the most traveled
GaryK [48]

The boat's position x relative to its starting point x_0=0 is determined by

x=x_0+v_0t+\dfrac12at^2

where v_0 is its initial velocity, a is its acceleration, and t is time. After t=6\,\mathrm s, the boat has traveled

x=\left(2.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12\left(4.2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)^2

\implies x=91\,\mathrm m

What three things are needed for a mechanical wave
dedylja [7]

Featured snippet from the web

Mechanical waves move energy through a medium by vibrating particles. Mechanical waves can't move energy through a vacuum because there is no matter inside of a vacuum. The three types of mechanical waves are transverse waves, surface waves, and longitudinal waves.

To be effective, an exercise program must be?
ExtremeBDS [4]

To be effective, an exercise program must have an aerobic form, portion for strength enhancement, and a stretching part. These three things are essential because they each target specific improvements in your body. For example, aerobics can help you maintain your body’s fitness or make it better. This usually targets your heart rate and ensures that you burn fat while doing so. Second is strength enhancement; this will make sure that your body becomes better – not just in a feeble state. Lastly is stretching, your muscles are like rubber bands. You cannot end or start your exercise program without stretching simply because they can damage your muscles as well. Aside from this, stretching can stop you from shocking your body into a physical activity, which may cause you to lose consciousness or have undue stress and fatigue.
