Answer:

12m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance walked westward  = 2.8m

Time of travel  = 5min

Distance walked eastward = 9.2m

Time of travel  = 10min

Unknown:

The total shopper's travel distance  = ?

Solution:

Total distance traveled is the sum of the length of path covered by a body. It is a scalar quantity.

 Total distance = distance walked westward + distance walked eastward

  Total distance  = 2.8m + 9.2m  = 12m

Which color of light is diffracted at a greater angle from a diffraction grating, red or yellow light?
topjm [15]
The amount of diffraction depends on the wavelength of light, with shorter wavelengths being diffracted at a greater angle than longer ones (in effect, blue and violet<span> light are diffracted at a larger angle than is red light).

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

v=2.556m/s

Explanation:

From the conservation of mechanical energy

K_{E1}+U_1=K_{E2}+U_2

\frac{1}{2}m*v_1^2+\frac{1}{2}*K*x_1^2=\frac{1}{2}m*v_2^2+\frac{1}{2}*K*x_2^2

x_2=0.08m

v_1=0 m/s

Solve to velocity v2

m*v_2^2=k*x_1^2-k*x_2^2

v^2=\frac{k}{m}*(x_1^2-x_2^2)

v^2=\frac{5.5N/m}{0.24kg}*(0.54m^2-0.080^2)

v=\sqrt{6.54m^2/s^2}=2.556m/s
