Answer:

12.26 m, north-west

Explanation:

From the figure the displacement can be calculated by the Pythagorean law. In this the triangle ABC is the right angle triangle with hypotenous h, base 12 m, and height 2.5 m.

Therefore,

h^{2}=12^{2}+2.5^{2}\\   h=\sqrt{150.65} \\h=12.26m

Therefore the net displacement is 12.26 m and the displacement we know it is vector quantity and it is the shortest distance between the two points.

Therefore the displacement is from point B to A. Then the net displacement is the direction in the north-west direction with a magnitude of 12.26 m.

3m east and 15m west evens out to 12m west. That's one side of a triangle. The second side is 2.5m north.
The third side is your displacement,
use Pythagorean's Theorem to determine this.
 a^2+b^2=c^2, that works out to 12^2+2.5^2=c^2.....144+6.25=c^2
<span>150.25=c^2
and
finally
c=12.26,
or 12m</span>

A heavy stone of mass m is hung from the ceiling by a thin 8.25-g wire that is 65.0 cm long. When you gently pluck the upper end
Triss [41]

Answer: m= 35.6 kg

Explanation:

For finding the mass of the stone we have the formula

v= \sqrt{\frac{Tension}{Linear. Mass. density} }

Here, Tension= m*g = m*9.81

and linear mass density= \frac{8.25 g}{65 cm}

Linear mass density= \frac{8.25*10^-3}{65*10^-2}

Linear mass density= 0.0127 kg/m

Velocity= 2*\frac{l}{t}

Velocity= 2 * \frac{65*10^-2}{7.84}

Velocity= 165.8 m/s

So putting all these values in equation we get

v= \sqrt{\frac{Tension}{Linear. Mass. density} }

165.8= \sqrt{\frac{m*9.81}{0.0127} }

Solving we get

m= 35.58 kg

or m= 35.6 kg

Two children stand on a platform at the top of a curving slide next to a backyard swimming pool. At the same moment the smaller
victus00 [196]

1.

Answer:

a) It is less

Explanation:

By energy conservation we can say that initial potential energy of both child must be equal to the final kinetic energy of the two child.

Since initially they are at same height so we will say that initial potential energy will be given as

mgH and MgH

so the child with greater mass has more energy and hence smaller child will reach with smaller kinetic energy

2.

Answer:

b. The two speeds are equal.

Explanation:

As we know by mechanical energy conservation law we have

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

v = \sqrt{2gh}

since both child starts at same height so here they both will reach the bottom at same speed

3.

Answer:

c. The two accelerations are equal

Explanation:

Since we know that average acceleration of the motion is given as

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}

since here initial and final speeds are same so they both must have same average acceleration here.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

choosing a material that will show warning before it fails

Explanation:

According to my research on different architectural engineering techniques, I can say that based on the information provided within the question this is an example of choosing a material that will show warning before it fails. By choosing aluminum he can detect certain failures a long time before it actually happens since aluminum shows signs of wear and tear and doesn't just break immediately.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
