A vector that is 1 cm long represents a displacement of 21 km. How many kilometers are represented by a 3-cm vector drawn to the

same scale?

The 3 cm vector represents 63 km.

Since a 1 cm long vector represents a displacement of 21 km, we need to find the number of kilometers a 3 cm vector represents.

Let x represent the displacement the 3 cm vector represents.

By ratio, we have 1 cm: 21 km = 3 cm : x

So, 1 cm/21 km = 3 cm/x

Cross-multiplying, we have

x × 1 cm = 3 cm × 21 km

x = 3 cm × 21 km/1 cm

x = 63 km

So, the 3 cm vector represents a displacement of 63 km.

ira [324]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnetic Force on the rod  F = Bi L

Work done by this force = F X d

=  Bi Ld

This energy is converted into both rotational and linear kinetic energy

= 1/2 I ω² + 1/2 mv²

= 1/2 x 1/2 m r²ω²+ 1/2 mv²

= 1/4 m v² + 1/2 mv²

= 3/4 mv²

So according to conservation of energy

Bi Ld =  3/4 mv²

v = \sqrt{\frac{4BiLd}{3m} }

calculate speed and velocity of the following. the race car was moving for 3.7 hours and during that time it traveled a distance
Ksju [112]

Answer:

v = 135.13 mph

Explanation:

Given that,

The race car was moving for 3.7 hours and during that time it traveled a distance of 500 miles south.

We need to find the speed of the car.

We know that,

Speed = distance/time

So,

v=\dfrac{500\ miles}{3.7\ h}\\\\v=135.13\ mph

So, the speed of the car is equal to 135.13 mph.

True or False:In a current, electrons will always flow from negative to positive.
DIA [1.3K]
It should be true: electrons low from negative toward positive to negative toward positive because opposite charges attract each other.

I hope this was correct
