A student walks 15 meters west, then turns south and walks for 7 meters. The student then begins to walk east for 15 meters until he reaches his destination. What was the student's distance? What about displacement? (hint draw it)

Answers

Answer 1

The total distance of the student is 37 m. The total displacement of the student is 7 m south.

What is distance?

The distance of an object is the total space covered by the object. It is scalar quantity because it has only magnitude with no direction.

The total distance covered by the student is calculated as follows;

distance  = 15 m + 7 m + 15 m

distance = 37 m

What is displacement?

The displacement of an object is the change in the position of the object. Displacement is vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

The displacement of the student is calculated as follows;

displacement = space between the 15 m west and 15 meter east = 7 m south.

Thus, the total distance of the student is 37 m. The total displacement of the student is 7 m south.

Explain why two parallel wires carrying currents in opposite directions repel each other.

Answers

As in a series circuit, if you have two parallel wires with current flowing in opposite directions, the magnetic fields of the two wires will be moving in the same direction at the point of intersection and will repel one another.

What function does parallel wiring provide in an electrical circuit?

In a parallel circuit, the branches divide the current so that only a portion of it passes through each branch. In a parallel circuit, each branch has the same voltage or potential difference, but the currents may differ. For instance, in a residential electrical circuit, the same voltage is provided across each lamp and appliance, but depending on their power requirements, each load draws a varied amount of current. A group of comparable batteries connected in parallel can produce more current than a single battery while maintaining the same voltage.

A reconnaissance plane flies 615 km away from
its base at 918 m/s, then flies back to its base

What is its average speed?
Answer in units of m/s.

Answers

The average speed of the plane is 3,967.7km/h or 1,102.15m/s.

Speed is a scalar number in kinematics that quantifies how quickly an item is moving. Since the plane's speed might fluctuate, we refer to the plane's average speed when describing its rate of motion. The whole distance travelled is divided by the total amount of time required to go that distance to arrive at this pace.

[tex]speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

For, [tex]time (t_{1} ) = \frac{615}{918}[/tex]

as 1m/s = 3.6km/h , therefore,

[tex]time (t_{1} ) = \frac{615}{918*3.6}[/tex]

[tex]time (t_{1} ) = 0.186 hours[/tex]

For, [tex]time(t_{2} ) = \frac{615}{1377}[/tex]

as 1m/s = 3.6km/h , therefore,

[tex]time (t_{2} ) = \frac{615}{1377*3.6}[/tex]

[tex]time (t_{2} ) = 0.124 hours[/tex]

Thus, the average speed of plane is,

[tex]s = \frac{615+615}{0.124+0.186}[/tex]

s = 3967.7km/h

or, [tex]\frac{3967.7}{3.6}[/tex] m/s = 1,102.15m/s

two charges experience exert a force of 1n on each other when they are 1m apart. what force will these charges experience if they are placed 2m apart?

Answers

The force experienced by the charges when they are placed 2 m apart will be 0.25 N.

The force between two charges is given by Coulomb’s Law.

According to this law, the force between two charges varies inversely as the square of the distance between the charges and is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of the two charges.

The above statement is represented by the following equation,

F= K Q1 x Q2/r^2

Here, F = Force between the two charges

K = Constant

Q1 and Q2 =  Magnitude of the two charges

r = Separation between the two charges

According to this equation, the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between two charges.

Initially, when the two charges are 1 m apart, the force is 1 N.

When the distance between the two charges is doubled,

then according to Coulomb’s Law, the force should decrease by 4 times.

Hence, if the charges are placed 2 meters apart,  the force becomes 1/4= 0.25 N.

suppose you want to observe the apparent retrograde motion of mars. how long will you need in order to see it?

Answers

Mars Retrograde Happens Every Two Years

As seen from the Earth(observer), the planets don't always make steady progress along the ecliptic(Path of the planets). They usually move in the same direction as the Sun (i.e., eastward), but from time to time they seem to slow down, stop, and reverse direction (i.e., move westward). This apparent reversal is called retrograde motion.

Apparent retrograde motion occurs when the observer (Earth) and the retrograding object (e.g., Mars) align with the Sun. Retrograde motion is an illusion  created when we observe other planets from the moving planet Earth.

Example:

A familiar example of retrograde motion occurs when you pass a car on the freeway, the car being passed appears to move backwards relative to you.

The average distance between the Sun and the Earth is, r = 1.5 × 10⁸ km                                                                                                           .                                                                                                                   r = 1.5 × 10¹¹ m

The path of the Earth around the Sun is circular, with a circumference:

c = 2πr

 c = 2 × 3.1416 ×  1.5 × 10¹¹ m

 c = 9.42478 × 10¹¹ m

The Earth takes time of T = 365.25 days to complete one revolution around the Sun, that is to travel the distance of c.

T = (365.25 days) × (24hr/1day) × (60min/1hr) × (60s/1min)

T = 3.15576 × 10 ⁷s.

Thus the velocity of the Earth is,

v = c/T

v = (9.42478 × 10¹¹ m) / (3.15576 × 10 ⁷s)

v = 2.98653 × 10⁴ m/s

The centripetal force exerted on the Earth by the Sun is given by,

F = 2mv/r

F = 2× (6 × 10²⁴ kg) × (2.98653 × 10⁴ m/s ) /(1.5 × 10¹¹ m)

A controlled burn is used to make a path that helps a spreading wildfire arrive at a source of water.

A controlled burn temporarily shuts down parks so people won’t start campfires.

A controlled burn helps to remove plants and vegetation around buildings so a wildfire won’t destroy them.

A controlled burn removes dead vegetation that might otherwise help a wildfire start and spread.

Answers

A controlled burn removes dead vegetation that might otherwise help a wildfire start and spread.

What is a controlled burns?

The term controlled burn refers to setting up an area in which the fire is controlled in order to avoid wild fires. These are deliberately set up in order to avoid the bush from burning down.

Let us recall that a wild fire is able to blaze across a large causing damage to a buildings as well as life and other properties in the way of the fire and could cause huge looses including loss of habitat.

Thus, the National Park Service sometimes creates controlled burns to mitigate wildfires because  a controlled burn removes dead vegetation that might otherwise help a wildfire start and spread.

f a ball is thrown into the air with an initial velocity of 50 ft/s, its height in feet after t seconds is given by y

Answers

The instantaneous velocity of the ball is 18ft/s.

What is velocity?

The pace at which an object's position changes as perceived from a particular point of view and as measured by a particular unit of time (for example, 60 km/h northbound) is defined as its velocity. Velocity is a fundamental concept in kinematics, the branch of classical mechanics that deals with the motion of bodies.

In order to be defined, the physical vector quantity known as velocity needs to have both a magnitude and a direction. Speed is a coherent derived unit whose quantity is measured in metres per second (m/s or m/s1) in the SI. Speed is the scalar absolute value (magnitude) of velocity (metric system).

Calculations:

at t=1s, the height is y=50(1)-16(12)=34ft.

at t=1.1s, the height is y=50(1.1)-16(1.12)=35.64ft

Between these two heights, the change in time is 0.1s. The change in height is 35.64ft-34ft=1.64ft.

Therefore [tex]V_{avg}=\frac{del y}{del t} = \frac{1.64ft}{0.1s} =16.4ft/s[/tex]

at t=1.01s, the height is y=50(1.01)-16(1.012)=34.1784ft

between t=1.01s and t=1s the change in time is 0.01s and the change in height is 0.1784ft.[tex]V_{avg}=\frac{0.1784ft}{0.01s} =17.84ft/s[/tex]

at t=1.001, the height is y=50(1.001)-16(1.0012)=34.017984ft

between t=1s and t=1.001s, the change in time is 0.001s and the change in height is 0.017984ft

[tex]V_{avg} =\frac{0.017984ft}{0.001s}=17.984ft/s[/tex]

It appears that as the time interval approaches 0, the average velocity approaches 18ft/s. Therefore it is safe to assume the instantaneous velocity at t=1s is 18ft/s.

A driver travels northbound on a highway at a speed of 25.0v m/s. A police car, traveling southbound at a speed of 40.0 m/s , approaches with its siren producing sound at a frequency of 2500 Hz. (a) What frequency does the driver observe as the police car approaches?

Answers

The driver observes as the police car approaches [tex]f^{\prime}=3036 \mathrm{~Hz}[/tex]

An observer traveling at speed is a driver [tex]v_O=25.0 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{s}}[/tex] and the source is the swiftly moving police vehicle [tex]v_S=40.0 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{s}}[/tex].The frequency of the sound that the source emits is [tex]f=2500Hz[/tex] The speed of the sound is [tex]v=343 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{s}}[/tex].

(a) The source and the observer approach one another. Then, we apply [tex]13.30[/tex]

[tex]f^{\prime}=f \frac{v+v_O}{v-v_S}[/tex]

substituting numerical numbers for the positive values of [tex]V_O[/tex] and [tex]V_S[/tex]

[tex]\begin{gathered}f^{\prime}=f=2500 \mathrm{~Hz} \times \frac{343 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{s}}+25.0 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{s}}}{343 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{s}}-40.0 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{s}}} \\f^{\prime}=3036 \mathrm{~Hz}\end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the driver observes as the police car approaches [tex]3036 Hz[/tex] is the frequency.

Explain reason for this observation?

When a wave source is moving relative to an observer, the Doppler effect or Doppler shift is a phenomenon that can be seen. A typical physical illustration of the Doppler Effect is when an ambulance crosses you while its siren is on. Let's take a closer look at the Doppler effect's nuances.

The Doppler effect is a significant phenomenon in planetary science and other scientific fields. The frequency of any sound or light wave produced by a moving source with regard to an observer is said to fluctuate as a result of the Doppler effect or Doppler shift.

A source's waves are compressed as they move in the direction of the observer. In contrast, waves from a source that is moving away from the observer become longer.

Study the graph below, it represents a motion with 3 distinct parts. Pay particular attention to label on the y-axis. Using at least 1 complete sentence, describe what is happening during each part of the motion. [your answer must include words and phrases that describe motion. Suggested examples are things like accelerating, constant velocity, backward, forward, at rest, stop]

Answers

We describe the motion in the graph as

In the first 2 seconds, the motion of the object is that it at rest. From t = 2 seconds to t = 4 seconds, the motion of the object is that it accelerating. For t = 4 seconds to t = 6 seconds, the motion of the object is that it is moving with constant velocity

What is motion?

Motion is the change in position of an object with time.

How to describe the motion in the graph?

Since on the graph

the y - axis is represented by velocity and the x - axis is represented by time,Motion from t = 0 to t = 2 seconds

From the graph, in the first 2 seconds, the motion of the object is described as the object is at rest.

Motion from t = 2 to t = 4 seconds

From the time , t = 2 seconds to t = 4 seconds, we see that the graph has a positive slope. During this time interval, from t = 2 seconds to t = 4 seconds, the object is accelerating.

So, the motion of the object is described as the object is accelerating

Motion from t = 4 to t = 6 seconds

For the time interval t = 4 seconds to t = 6 seconds, we see that the velocity is a straight line parallel to the x(time) axis. This implies that the velocity of the object is constant for t = 4 seconds to t = 6 seconds. So, for t = 4 seconds to t = 6 seconds, the motion of the object is described as object is moving with constant velocity

So, we describe the motion in the graph as

In the first 2 seconds, the motion of the object is that it is at rest. From t = 2 seconds to t = 4 seconds, the motion of the object is that it is accelerating. For t = 4 seconds to t = 6 seconds, the motion of the object is that it is moving with constant velocity
