7 0

Answer:

8.51 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity = Displacement/Time

Velocity = 400 m ÷ 47 s

<u>Velocity</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>8</u><u>.</u><u>5</u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>m</u><u>/</u><u>s</u>

A cyclist travels 1850 m north and then 1200 m south. Find both the distance it has traveled and the magnitude of its displaceme
finlep [7]

Answer:

The distance it has traveled is 3,050 m and the magnitude of its displacement is 650 m north.

Explanation:

Distance refers to the length between any two points in space, while displacement refers to the distance from a start position to an end position regardless of the path.

In other words, distance refers to how much space an object travels during its movement; is the quantity moved. It is also said to be the sum of the distances traveled. The distance traveled by a mobile is the length of its trajectory and it is a scalar quantity. In this case, the distance is calculated as:

1850 m + 1200 m= 3,050 m

Displacement refers to the distance and direction of the final position from the initial position of an object. The displacement effected is a vector quantity. The vector representing the displacement has its origin in the initial position, its end in the final position, and its module is the distance in a straight line between the initial and final positions. That is, when expressing the displacement it is done in terms of the magnitude with its respective unit of measurement and the direction because the displacement is a vector type quantity. Mathematically, the displacement (Δd) is calculated as:

Δd= df - di

where df is the final position and di is the initial position of the object.

In this case, the displacement is calculated as:

1850 m - 1200 m= 650 m

Since the distance to the north is greater, the direction of travel will be to the north.

<u><em>The distance it has traveled is 3,050 m and the magnitude of its displacement is 650 m north.</em></u>

How can a wave carry information?
Anon25 [30]
A transmitter “encodes” or modulates messages by varying the amplitude or frequency of the wave – a bit like Morse code. At the other, a receiver tuned to the same wavelength picks up the signal and 'decodes' it back to the desired form

I think it’s A or D

“Is it correct to say that a radio wave can be considered a low-frequency light wave?
klio [65]

It's weird but technically correct to say that a radio wave can be considered a low-frequency light wave.  Radio and light are both electromagnetic waves.  The only difference is that radio waves have much much much longer wavelengths, and much much much lower frequencies, than light waves have.  But they're both the same physical phenomenon.

However, a radio wave CAN'T also be considered to be a sound wave.  These two things are as different as two waves can be.

-- Radio is an electromagnetic wave. Sound is a mechanical wave.

-- Radio waves travel more than 800 thousand times faster than sound waves do.

-- Radio waves are transverse waves. Sound waves are longitudinal waves.

-- Radio waves can travel through empty space. Sound waves need material stuff to travel through.

-- Radio waves can be detected by radio, TV, and microwave receivers. Sound waves can't.

-- Sound waves can be detected by our ears. Radio waves can't.

-- Sound waves can be generated by talking, or by hitting a frying pan with a spoon. Radio waves can't.

-- Radio waves can be generated by an alternating current flowing through an isolated wire. Sound waves can't.
