<u>Answer:</u>

   Displacement = 100 meter

   Distance covered = 180 meter.

<u>Explanation:</u>

   Let east represents positive x- axis and north represent positive y - axis. Horizontal component is i and vertical component is j.

  Carl runs 100 m West, Displacement = -100 i

  He then runs 60 m North, Displacement = 60 j

   He then runs 20 m East, Displacement = 20 i

  Total displacement of Carl's running = -100 i + 60 j + 20 i = (-80 i + 60 j) m (Vector)

  Magnitude of displacement =  \sqrt{(-80)^2+60^2} =100 m

  Distance traveled by Carl = 100 + 60 + 20 = 180 m ( Scalar)

A bug walks exactly halfway around the edge of a circular cupcake with a diameter of 5 cm what is the distance he traveled and w
adelina 88 [10]

The circumference of a circle is (pi) x (diameter)

The circumference of the cupcake is (pi) x (5 cm)

Halfway around is (1/2) x (pi) x (5 cm) = (2.5 pi cm) = <em>about 7.85 cm</em>

The 'why' appears up above, in the first 2 lines of this solution.

Most radiation exposure comes from
Mrrafil [7]
Most radiation exposure comes from natural sources. These so-called "natural sources" include Radon, Internal, Terrestrial, and Cosmic. Among that, Radon proves to be the largest source of radiation. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that comes from the breakdown of uranium.

A mass of 5 kg of saturated water vapor at 150 kPa is heated at constant pressure until the temperature reaches 200°C. Calculate
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 5 kg

Pressure = 150 kPa

Temperature = 200°C

We need to calculate the specific volume

Using formula of work done

W=Pm\DeltaV

W=Pm(\dfrac{RT_{1}}{P_{atm}}-\dfrac{RT_{2}}{P_{atm}}

W=\dfrac{PmR}{P_{atm}}(T_{2}-T_{1})

Where,R = gas constant

T = temperature

P = pressure

P_{atm}=Atmosphere pressure

m = mass

Put the value into the formula

W=\dfrac{150\times10^{3}\times5\times287.05}{1.01\times10^{5}}\times(473-373)

W=213\ kJ

Hence, The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.

An infinitely long straight wire has a uniform linear charge density of Derive the 4. equation for the electric field a distance
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}

Explanation:

Let the linear charge density of the charged wire is given as

\frac{q}{L} = \lambda

here we can use Gauss law to find the electric field at a distance r from wire

so here we will assume a Gaussian surface of cylinder shape around the wire

so we have

\int E. dA = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}

here we have

E \int dA = \frac{\lambda L}{\epsilon_0}

E. 2\pi r L = \frac{\lambda L}{\epsilon_0}

so we have

E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}
