Answer:

Final displacement with respect to the starting position is 832.37 meter

Explanation:

Lets consider that the orienteer start to run on the point of (0,0) point of a coordinate system. When he runs towards to east side about 400m, he will be at the point A(400,0). After he runs to the northeast (at a 45 degree angle from due east and from due north), approximately he will make 353.55 meter to east and 353.55 meter to the north side and he will be at the point of B(753.55, 353.55)

From the starting point total displacement will be 832.37 meter. Please check the attached graphical solution.

Find the kinetic of a 0.1 kilogram toy truck moving at a speed of 1.1 meters per second
omeli [17]
KE = kinetic energy
PE = potential energy
GPE = gravitational potential energy
energy is always measured in Joules (J)

KE = (0.5) times the mass times the velocity^2
square the velocity first

Mass = (KE x 2) / v^2
square the velocity first, then double the kinetic energy, then divide
mass is measured in kg

velocity = sqrt(KE x 2 / m)
velocity can be called speed, like in the the second problem
remember to find the square root after you double the KE and divide that by the mass.
for example: if after you doubled KE and divided it by the mass you got sqrt(20), the answer would be about 4.47

GPE = mass x gravitational pull (about 9.8 m/s^2 on earth) x height

height = (PE) / (g x m)
do g x m first

So for question 1:
KE = (0.5)0.1 x 1.1^2
always square the velocity first:
KE = (0.5)0.1 x 1.21
KE = 0.0605
so if you rounded it to the nearest hundreths you would get KE = 0.06 J
don't forget the unit of energy is in Joules

Charge q1 is distance r from a positive point charge q. charge q2=q1/3 is distance 2r from q. what is the ratio u1/u2 of their p
makvit [3.9K]
We need the power law for the change in potential energy (due to the Coulomb force) in bringing a charge q from infinity to distance r from charge Q. We are only interested in the ratio U₁/U₂, so I'm not going to bother with constants (like the permittivity of space). 

<span>The potential energy of charge q is proportional to </span>
<span>∫[s=r to ∞] qQs⁻²ds = -qQs⁻¹|[s=r to ∞] = qQr⁻¹, </span>

<span>so if r₂ = 3r₁ and q₂ = q₁/4, then </span>
<span>U₁/U₂ = q₁Qr₂/(r₁q₂Q) = (q₁/q₂)(r₂/r₁) </span>
<span>= 4•3 = 12.</span>

You find a yellow rock and wonder if it is gold. how could you apply the scientific method to this problem
kakasveta [241]
You need to form a hypothesis based on what is already known about gold and then devise an experiment to test this hypothesis.

For example, the density of gold is well known. So your hypothesis would be that if the rock were gold, you could predict the amount of water displacement in a beaker simply by measuring the weight of the rock.

The steps would be:

1. research what is already known about your field of investigation (in this case <em>gold</em>).
2. Using that information, formulate a hypothesis that allows you to make predictions.
3. Devise an experiment that can test your predictions.
