tangare [24]2 years ago

Answer:

The distance moved is 28 meters. The displacement has a magnitude of 4 meters in direction to the west.

Explanation:

The dog walks 28 meters, so it is the distance moved, which is a scalar magnitude, so it doesn't consider the position of the dog.

The displacement is a vectorial magnitude, which consider the final and initial positions. The distance between the final and initial positions is the magnitude of the displacement. The direction is from the initial point to the final point from East to West.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

i(t) = (E/R)[1 - exp(-Rt/L)]

Explanation:

E−vR−vL=0

E− iR− Ldi/dt = 0

E− iR = Ldi/dt

Separating te variables,

dt/L = di/(E - iR)

Let x = E - iR, so dx = -Rdi and di = -dx/R substituting for x and di we have

dt/L = -dx/Rx

-Rdt/L = dx/x

interating both sides, we have

∫-Rdt/L = ∫dx/x

-Rt/L + C = ㏑x

x = exp(-Rt/L + C)

x = exp(-Rt/L)exp(C)     A = exp(C) we have

x = Aexp(-Rt/L) Substituting x = E - iR we have

E - iR = Aexp(-Rt/L) when t = 0, i(0) = 0. So

E - i(0)R = Aexp(-R×0/L)

E - 0 = Aexp(0) = A × 1

E = A

So,

E - i(t)R = Eexp(-Rt/L)

i(t)R = E - Eexp(-Rt/L)

i(t)R = E(1 - exp(-Rt/L))

i(t) = (E/R)(1 - exp(-Rt/L))

A uniform 1.4-kg rod that is 0.75 m long is suspended at rest from the ceiling by two springs, one at each end of the rod. Both
svetlana [45]

Answer:

7 deg

Explanation:

m = mass of the rod = 1.4 kg

W = weight of the rod = mg = (1.4) (9.8) = 13.72 N

k_{L} = spring constant for left spring = 59 Nm^{-1}

k_{R} = spring constant for right spring = 33 Nm^{-1}

x_{L} = stretch in the left spring

x_{R} = stretch in the right spring

L = length of the rod = 0.75 m

\theta = Angle the rod makes with the horizontal

Using equilibrium of force in vertical direction for left spring

k_{L} x_{L} = (0.5) W\\(59) x_{L} = (0.5) (13.72)\\x_{L} = 0.116 m

Using equilibrium of force in vertical direction for right spring

k_{R} x_{R} = (0.5) W\\(33) x_{R} = (0.5) (13.72)\\x_{R} = 0.208 m

Angle made with the horizontal is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{(x_{R} - x_{L})}{L} )\\\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{(0.208 - 0.116)}{0.75} )\\\theta = 7 deg

James Joule (after whom the unit of energy is named) claimed that the water at the bottom of Niagara Falls should be warmer than
Molodets [167]

Answer:

0.12 K

Explanation:

height, h = 51 m

let the mass of water is m.

Specific heat of water, c = 4190 J/kg K

According to the transformation of energy

Potential energy of water = thermal energy of water

m x g x h = m x c x ΔT

Where, ΔT is the rise in temperature

g x h =  c x ΔT

9.8 x 51 = 4190 x ΔT

ΔT = 0.12 K

Thus, the rise in temperature is 0.12 K.

Misha Larkins [42]

Since Alejandro hopes to combine the findings from the collected studies and draw a general conclusion regarding the subject, he is using statistical tool of inference.

There are basically 2 types of statistical tools:

  1. Descriptive statistical tools
  2. Inferential statistical tools

Descriptive tools are used to describe data. They include the use of tables, graphs, measures of dispersion, measures of central tendencies, etc.

Inferential tools are used to deduce conclusions from data. They include measures of significant differences, probability, correlation and regression, etc.

In this case, Alejandro would need to subject the data collected from the 35 studies to inferential statistical analysis tools in order to be able to make relevant conclusions.
