The displacement of Itzel according to the question is 6.3 miles SW

Displacement is defined as the distance moved by a body in a specified direction

Find the diagram attached

From the diagram given, we can see that AB is the displacement

To get the length AB, we will have to use the Pythagoras theorem:

$AB^2=2^2+ 6^2\\AB^2 ^2=4+36\\AB^2=40\\AB=\sqrt{40}\\AB= 6.3 miles\\$

From the diagram, we can also se that the direction of the displacement in the South West direction.

Hence the displacement of Itzel according to the question is 6.3 miles SW

If an object is thrown in an upward direction from the top of a building 160 ft. High at an initial speed of 21.82 mi/h what is

viktelen [127]

To solve this problem we are going to use tow kinematic equations for falling objects.
1. Kinematic equation for final velocity: $V_{f}=V_{i}+gt$
where
$V_{f}$ is the final velocity
$V_{i}$ is the initial velocity
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity $32 \frac{ft}{s^2}$
$t$ is the time
2. Kinematic equation for distance: $d=V_{i}t+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2$
where
$d$ is the distance
$V_{i}$ is the initial velocity
$V_{f}$ is the final velocity
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity $32 \frac{ft}{s^2}$
$t$ is the time

First, we are going to convert 21.82 mi/h to ft/s:
$21.82 \frac{mi}{h} =31.21 \frac{ft}{s}$

Next, we are going to use the first equation to find how long it takes for the rock to reach its maximum height.
We know for our problem that the object is thrown in upward direction, so its velocity at its maximum height (before falling again) will be zero; therefore: $V_{f}=0$ . We also know that it initial speed is 31.21 ft/s, so $V_{i}=31.21$ . Lets replace those values in our formula to find $t$ :
$V_{f}=V_{i}+gt$
$0=31.21+(-32)t$
$-32t=-31.21$
$t= \frac{-31.21}{-32}$
$t=0.98$ seconds

Next, we are going to use that time in our second kinematic equation to find the distance the object reach at its maximum height:
$d=V_{i}t+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2$
$d=31.21(0.98)+ \frac{1}{2} (-32)(0.98)^2$
$d=15.22$ ft

Now we can add the height of the building and the maximum height of the object:
$d=160+15.22=175.22$ ft

Next, we are going to use that height (distance) in our second kinematic equation one more time to fin how long it takes for the object to fall from its maximum height to the ground:
$d=V_{i}t+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2$
$175.22=31.21t+ \frac{1}{2} (32)t^2$
$16t^2+31.21t-175.22=0$
$t=2.47$ or $t=-4.43$
Since time cannot be negative, $t=2.47$ is the time it takes the object to fall to the ground.

Finally, we can use that time in our first kinematic equation to find the final speed of the object when it hits the ground:
$V_{f}=V_{i}+gt$
$V_{f}=31.21+(32)(2.47)$
$V_{f}=110.25$ ft/s

We can conclude that the speed of the object when it hits the ground is 110.25 ft/s

The charges on the proton and electron are typically measured in: Select the correct answer below: volts amperes coulombs dalton

malfutka [58]

Answer: columbs

Explanation:

Electrical charge are measured in columbs, usually demoted as C. Hence, the charges on proton and electron will be measured in Coloumbs. It typically measures the amount of electricity conveyed per second by a current of 1 ampere. The other units Given such as ; Volt is used for measuring voltage, which is the pressure in an electrical source. AMPERE is used for measuring the current flowing through an electrical circuit.

Dalton is a unit of mass and is about 1.660 * 10^-27 kg

A 27.0 g marble sliding to the right at 56.8 cm/s overtakes and collides elastically with a 13.5 g marble moving in the same dir

Nataly [62]

Answer: $v_1=28.4 cm/s$

Explanation:

Given

mass of marble $m_1=27 gm$

velocity of marble $u_1=56.8 cm/s \approx 0.568 m/s$

mass of second marble $m_2=13.5 gm$

Velocity of second marble $u_2=14.2 cm/s \approx 0.142 m/s$

After collision 13.5 gm marble moves to the right at i.e. $v_2=71 cm/s$

Conserving momentum

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

$27\times 56.8+13.5\times 14.2=27\times v_1+13.5\times 71$

$1533.6+191.7=27\cdot v_1+958.5$

$27\cdot v_1=766.8$

$v_1=\frac{766.8}{27}=28.4 cm/s$

ASAP ANSWER PLEASE WILL MARK BRAINLIEST

lisov135 [29]

Yes

Explanation:

It is a reasonable result obtained.

Error = true value - measured value

true value = 24.5

measured value = 24.2

Error = 24.5 - 24.2 = 0.3g

The error reported in the reading is 0.3g

The reason why we had a disparity in the figures obtained from this measurement is primarily due to some erroneous scale.

The mixture at the end of the day is a solution.

We are expected to have the same mass but due to experimental or some form of random error introduced, we noticed a difference.

The value obtained is quite logical as we only had a deviation of 0.3g.
