Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent each displacement in vector form .

i will represent east , j will represent north .

D₁ = 4.1 west = - 4.1 i

D₂ = 17.3 north = 17.3 j

D₃ = - 1.2 cos65.4 i + 1.2 sin65.4 j

= - .5 i + 1.09 j

Total displacement

= D₁ + D₂ + D₃

=  - 4.1 i + 17.3 j - .5 i + 1.09 j

D = - 4.6 i + 18.39 j

magnitude of D

= √ ( 4.6² + 18.39² )

= √ (21.16 + 338.2 )

= √359.36

= 18.95 km .

Final displacement = 18.95 km .

The gravitational force between two objects has a magnitude of F. If both masses were doubled and the distance between them doub
Fofino [41]

Answer:

F' = F

Explanation:

The gravitational force of attraction between two objects can be given by Newton's Gravitational Law as follows:

F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

where,

F = Force of attraction

G = Universal gravitational costant

m₁ = mass of first object

m₂ = mass of second object

r = distance between objects

Now, if the masses and the distance between them is doubled:

F' = \frac{G(2m_1)(2m_2)}{(2r)^2}\\\\F' = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

<u>F' = F</u>

PLEASE HELP!!! 20 PIONTS!!!
timama [110]

Answer:

Transverse waves are always characterized by particle motion being perpendicular to wave motion. A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves.

Explanation:

The movement of the medium is different. In the longitudinal wave, the medium moves left to right, while in thee transverse wave, the medium moves vertically up and down. Longitudinal waves have a compression and rarefaction, while the transverse wave has a crest and a trough. Longitudinal waves have a pressure variation, transverse waves don't have pressure variation. Longitudinal waves can be propagated in solids, liquids and gases, transverse waves can only be propagated in solids and on the surfaces of liquids. Longitudinal waves have a change in density throughout the medium, transverse waves don't.

Noise-canceling headphones are an application of destructive interference. Each side of the headphones uses a microphone to pick
exis [7]
The question for this problem would be the minimum headphone delay, in ms, that will cancel this noise.
The 200 Hz. period = (1/200) = 0.005 sec. It will need to be delayed by 1/2, so 0.005/2, that is = 0.0025 sec. So converting sec to ms, will give us the delay of:Delay = 2.5 ms.

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.59 times a second. A tack is stuck in the tire a
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Tangential speed=5.4 m/s

Radial acceleration=88.6m/s^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Angular speed=2.59 rev/s

We know that

1 revolution=2\pi rad

2.59 rev=2\pi\times 2.59=5.18\pi=5.18\times 3.14=16.27 rad/s

By using \pi=3.14

Angular velocity=\omega=16.27rad/s

Distance from axis=r=0.329 m

Tangential speed=r\omega=16.27\times 0.329=5.4m/s

Radial acceleration=\frac{v^2}{r}

Radial acceleration=\frac{(5.4)^2}{0.329}=88.6m/s^2
