Answer:

Resultant displacement of the hiker is 223.60 meters in northwest direction.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance covered in west direction, d₁ = 200 m

Distance covered in north direction, d₂ = 100 m

We need to find the resultant displacement. The distance covered can be solved using Pythagoras theorem as :

d=\sqrt{d_1^2+d_2^2}

d=\sqrt{(200)^2+(100)^2}          

d = 223.60 m

So, the resultant displacement of the hiker is 223.60 meters in north west direction. Hence, this is the required solution.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a)v_{f}=0.88m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the Momentum's conservation Law, before and after the girl catch the ball:

\\ p_{1}=p_{2}\\m_{ball}*v_{o.ball}+m_{girl}*v_{o.girl} = m_{ball}*v_{f.ball} + m_{girl}*v_{f.girl}        (1)

At the beginning the girl is  stationary:

v_{o.girl}=0m/s       (2)

If the girl catch the ball, both have the same speed:

v_{f.girl}=v_{f.ball}=v_{f}       (3)

We replace (2) and (3) in (1):

m_{ball}*v_{o.ball} = (m_{ball}+m_{girl})*v_{f} \\

We can now solve the equation for v_{f}:

v_{f}=\frac{m_{ball}*v_{o.ball}}{(m_{ball}+m_{girl})}=\frac{15*4.7}{15+65}=0.88m/s

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

w = √ 1 / CL

This does not violate energy conservation because the voltage of the power source is equal to the voltage drop in the resistence

Explanation:

This problem refers to electrical circuits, the circuits where this phenomenon occurs are series RLC circuits, where the resistor, the capacitor and the inductance are placed in series.

In these circuits the impedance is

             X = √ (R² +  (X_{C} -X_{L})² )

where Xc and XL is the capacitive and inductive impedance, respectively

            X_{C} = 1 / wC

           X_{L} = wL

From this expression we can see that for the resonance frequency

           X_{C} = X_{L}

the impedance of the circuit is minimal, therefore the current and voltage are maximum and an increase in signal intensity is observed.

This does not violate energy conservation because the voltage of the power source is equal to the voltage drop in the resistence

               V = IR

Since the contribution of the two other components is canceled, this occurs for

                X_{C} = X_{L}

                1 / wC = w L

                w = √ 1 / CL

<h2>Answer: B. Gravitational potential energy </h2>

Explanation:

<em>The gravitational potential energy is the energy that a body or object possesses, due to its position in a gravitational field. </em>

That is why this energy depends on the relative height of an object with respect to some point of reference and associated with the gravitational force.

In the case of the <u>Earth</u>, in which  <u>the gravitational field is considered constant</u>, the value of the gravitational potential energy U_{p} will be:

U_{p}=mgh  

Where m is the mass of the object, g the acceleration due gravity and h the height of the object.

As we can see, the value of U_{p} is directly proportional to the height.

A sheet of gold leaf has a thickness of 0.125 micrometer. A gold atom has a radius of 174pm. Approximately how many layers of at
Olegator [25]

Answer:

719

Explanation:

Conversion

1 picometer (pm) is equivalent to 1 × 10^{-12} meter

1 micrometer is equivalent to 1 × 10^{-6} meter

To find the number of layers, we divide the overal leaf thickness by the thickness of one atom hence dividing tex]0.125 × 10^{-6}[/tex] meter by 174 × 10^{-12} meter we get that the number of sheets will be as follows

\frac {0.125× 10^{-6}}{174\times 10^{-12}}=718.3908045\approx 719

Therefore, they are approximately 719 sheets
