A book is moved once around the perimeter of a tabletop with dimensions 1.2 m x 1.8 m.
(a) If the book ends up at its initial position, what is its displacement
(b) What is the distance traveled?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0m

b) 6m

Explanation:

First, we need to remember:

Displacement: Difference between final and initial position.

Distance traveled: Total distance traveled.

a) If the final position is the same as the initial position, then:

final position = initial position

And we know that:

displacement = final position - initial position = 0

Then the displacement of the book is zero.

b)

We can assume that the book traveled along the perimeter of the table.

The table is a rectangle of width 1.2m and length 1.8m

Remember that for a rectangle of width W and length L, the perimeter is:

P = 2*L + 2*W

Then the perimeter of the table is:

P = 2*1.2m + 2*1.8m = 6m

This means that the distance traveled by the book is 6 meters.

Captain Jack Sparrow has been marooned on an island in the Atlantic by his crew, and decides to builda raft to escape. The wind seems quite steady, and first blows him due east for 11km, and then 6km ina direction 6degrees north of east. Confident that he will eventually find himself in safety, he fallsasleep. When he wakes up, he notices the wind is now blowing him gently 11degrees south of east -but after traveling for 21km, he finds himself back on the island.

Answers

Answer:

    d₃ = 37,729 km,     θ=  5.1º North of West

Explanation:

This is a velocity addition problem, the easiest way to solve it is to decompose the velocities in a Cartesian system, the x-axis coincides with the West-East direction and the y-axis with the South-North direction

* first displacement is

           d₁ₓ = 11 km

* second offset is

          cos 6 = d₂ₓ / d₂

          sin 6 = d_{2y} / d₂

          d₂ₓ = d₂ cos 6

          d_{2y} = d₂ sin 6

          d₂ₓ = 6 cos 6 = 5.967 km

          d_{2y} = 6 sin 6 = 0.6272 km

* third displacement is unknown

* fourth and last displacement

          cos (-11) = d₄ₓ / d₄

          sin (-11) = d_{4y} / d₄

          d₄ₓ = d₄ cos (-11)

          d_{4y} = d₄ sin (-11)

          d₄ₓ = 21 cos (-11) = 20.61 km

          d_{4y} = 21 sin (-11) = -4.007 km

They tell us that at the end of the tour you are back on the island, so the displacement must be zero

X axis

           x = d₁ₓ + d₂ₓ + d₃ₓ + d₄ₓ

           0 = 11 +5.967 + d₃ₓ + 20.61

           d₃ₓ = -11 - 5.967 - 20.61

           d₃ₓ = -37.577 km

Y axis  

          y = d_{1y} + d_{2y} + d_{3y} + d_{4y}

          0 = 0 + 0.6272 + d_{3y} -4.007

          d_{3y} = 4.007 - 0.6272

          d_{3y} = 3.3798 km

This distance can be given in the form of module and angle

Let's use the Pythagorean theorem for the module

           d₃ = [tex]\sqrt{d_{3x}^2 + d_{3y}^2}[/tex]

           d₃ = [tex]\sqrt{37.577^2 + 3.3798^2}[/tex]

           d₃ = 37,729 km

Let's use trigonometry for the angle

            tan θ = d_{3y} / d₃ₓ

            θ = tan⁻¹ [tex]\frac{d_{3y}}{d_{3x}}[/tex]

            θ = tan-1 (-3.3798 / 37.577)

            θ = 5.1º

Since the y coordinate is positive and the x coordinate is negative, this angle is in the second quadrant, so the direction given in the form of cardinal coordinates is

            θ=  5.1º North of West

Help plsssssssssss I write it 100 time no one answer

Answers

Answer:

1.93×10²⁸ s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of electron (e) = 2×10²⁴

Current (I) = 10 A

Time (t) =?

Next, we shall determine the quantity of electricity flowing through pasing through the point. This can be obtained as follow:

1 e = 96500 C

Therefore,

2×10²⁴ e = 2×10²⁴ e × 96500 / 1 e

2×10²⁴ e = 1.93×10²⁹ C

Thus, 1.93×10²⁹ C of electricity is passing through the point.

Finally, we shall determine the time. This can be obtained as follow:

Current (I) = 10 A

Quantity of electricity = 1.93×10²⁹ C

Time (t) =?

Q = it

1.93×10²⁹ = 10 × t

Divide both side by 10

t = 1.93×10²⁹ / 10

t = 1.93×10²⁸ s

Thus, it took 1.93×10²⁸ s for 2×10²⁴ electrons to pass through the point

A particle move in the xy plane so that its position vector r=bcosQi +bsinQj+ ctk, where b, Q and c are constants. show that the partial move with constant speed.​

Answers

Answer:

The speed of this particle is constantly [tex]c[/tex].

Explanation:

Position vector of this particle at time [tex]t[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle \mathbf{r}(t) = b\, \cos(Q)\, \mathbf{i} + b\, \sin(Q) \, \mathbf{j} + c\, t\, \mathbf{k}[/tex].

Write [tex]\mathbf{r}(t)[/tex] as a column vector to distinguish between the components:

[tex]\mathbf{r}(t) = \begin{bmatrix}b\, \cos(Q) \\ b\, \sin(Q) \\ c\, t\end{bmatrix}[/tex].

Both [tex]b[/tex] and [tex]Q[/tex] are constants. Therefore, [tex]b\, \cos(Q)[/tex] and [tex]b \sin (Q)[/tex] would also be constants with respect to [tex]t[/tex]. Hence, [tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[b\, \cos(Q)] = 0[/tex] and [tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[b\, \sin(Q)] = 0[/tex].

Differentiate [tex]\mathbf{r}(t)[/tex] (component-wise) with respect to time [tex]t[/tex] to find the velocity vector of this particle at time [tex]t\![/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\mathbf{v}(t) &= \frac{\rm d}{{\rm d} t} [\mathbf{r}(t)] \\ &=\frac{\rm d}{{\rm d} t} \left(\begin{bmatrix}b\, \cos(Q) \\ b\, \sin(Q) \\ c\, t\end{bmatrix}\right) \\ &= \begin{bmatrix}\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[b\, \cos(Q)] \\[0.5em] \displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[b\, \sin(Q)]\\[0.5em]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[c \cdot t]\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}0 \\ 0 \\ c\end{bmatrix}\end{aligned}[/tex].

The speed [tex]v[/tex] (a scalar) of a particle is the magnitude of its velocity :

[tex]\begin{aligned}v(t) &= \| \mathbf{v}(t) \| \\ &= \left\|\begin{bmatrix}0 \\ 0 \\ c\end{bmatrix}\right\| \\ &= \sqrt{0^2 + 0^2 + c^2} = c\end{aligned}[/tex].

Therefore, the speed of this particle is constantly [tex]c[/tex] (a constant.)

An electric heater Consumes 1.8 MJ When connected to a 250V supply for 30 minutes. Find the power rating of the heater and the current taken from the supply

Answers

Answer:

a. Power = 1000 Watts or 1 Kilowatts.

b. Current = 4 Amperes.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Energy consumed = 1.8MJ = 1.8 × 10^6 = 1800000 Joules

Voltage = 250V

Time = 30 minutes to seconds = 30 * 60 = 1800 seconds

To find the power rating;

Power = energy/time

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Power = 1800000/1800

Power = 1000 Watts or 1 Kilowatts.

b. To find the current taken from the supply;

Power = current * voltage

1000 = current * 250

Current = 1000/250

Current = 4 Amperes.
