A) (4,-2) is the theater
B) (-1,1) is the restaurant

a. (+4, -2)

We can use the following conventions:

- x-axis: east-west direction, with east being positive x and west being negative x

- y-axis: north-south direction, with north being positive y and south being negative y

With this coordinates, the movie theater is:

- 4 km east --> this means x = +4

- 2 km south --> this means y = -2

So, the coordinates of the theater are (+4,-2)


b. (-1,+1)

We drive 5 km west (which means \Delta x = -5) and 3 km north (which means \Delta y = +3). We have to add these displacements to each coordinate. we find:

x'= x_0 + \Delta x = +4 + (-5) = -1\\y' = y_0 + \Delta y = -2 + (+3)=+1

So, the coordinates of the restaurant are (-1, +1)

What is the advantage of using fluorescent bulbs over incandescent bulbs?
EastWind [94]

Incandescent bulbs work by conducting an electric current along a filament made of a long, thin piece of tungsten metal. The filament must be heated to temperatures of about 2,300 degrees Celsius to glow and emit a white-hot light. But the process transforms only 5 percent to 10 percent of the electricity used into visible light. The rest is transformed into heat, which can eventually increase the temperature of a room.

CFL bulbs, on the other hand, are made of glass tubes filled with gas and a small amount of mercury. The amount is so small that an old-fashioned glass thermometer holds 100 times as much mercury as one CFL bulb. Light is emitted when mercury molecules in a CLF bulb become excited by electricity running between two electrodes at its base. The mercury emits an invisible ultraviolet light that becomes visible when it hits the white coating inside the CFL bulb.

Basically, based on how they both work, fluorescent bulbs last longer and do not release as much heat as incandescent bulbs which means it's also better for the environment.

A spring in a toy gun has a spring constant of 10 N/m and can be compressed 4 cm.
Ket [755]
F=ma
We know from this that a=10,000m/s2

V=at
X=vt


You end up with v^2=ax

Plug in 10,000 and 0.04 and solve for v =20m/s

A 84-kg man stands on a bathroom scale inside an elevator. the scale measures in units of newtons. (a) the elevator accelerates
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

  94 kg

Explanation:

The mass registered by the scale is based on the assumption that the force applied is due entirely to gravity. If the force is greater, then the indicated mass will be greater.

__

<h3>how many g's</h3>

As a fraction of the acceleration of gravity, the elevator's acceleration is ...

  (1.2 m/s²)/(9.8 m/s²) ≈ 6/49

<h3>net force</h3>

The force required to produce a given acceleration is found by the formula ...

  F = ma . . . . . . . force on mass m to produce acceleration 'a'

When the man is stationary on the scale, the upward force it supplies is balanced by the downward force on the man due to gravity. The force and the mass are proportional, and the constant of proportionality (the acceleration due to gravity) is used to calibrate the scale. More force is thus translated to a higher mass reading.

Since the man's net acceleration is upward at the rate of 6/49×g, the total force applied by the scale is (1 +6/49) = 55/49 times as great as when the man is stationary. This greater force gets translated to a greater mass reading.

The force is equivalent to what would be required to support a stationary man with a mass of ...

  (84 kg)(55/49) = 94 2/7 kg

The scale would read about 94 kg during the upward acceleration period.
