The final displacement is calculated as √(6² + 10² + 8²).

This results in √(36 + 100 + 64).

Ultimately, the final displacement is √200.

In conclusion, the final displacement is 14.14 km (up and to the northeast of the launch)

Jade and her roommate Jari commute to work each morning, traveling west on I-10. One morning Jade left for work at 6:45 A.M., bu
Maru [3345]

Answer:

Jari

Explanation:

To determine who is traveling faster, we need to evaluate their gradients. A steeper slope indicates a higher speed.

For Jari's path, starting point is (0, 0) and (6, 7) is another point.

The gradient is the difference in y divided by the difference in x:

Change in y=7-0=7

Change in x=6-0=6

Thus, the slope equals 7/6.

For Jade, her first point is (0, 10) and another is (6, 16).

Change in y=16-10=6

Change in x=6-0=6

Thus, the slope equals 6/6=1.

It's evident that 7/6 exceeds 6/6 or 1, proving Jari is quicker than Jade.

1200 N-m of torque is used to drive a gear (A) of diameter 25 cm, which in turn drives another gear (B) of diameter 52 cm. What
Ostrovityanka [3204]

Response:

2.5kN.m

Details:

Torque relates directly to the pitch diameter

= Ta/Tb= Da/Db

For 120/Tb= 0.25/0.5

This gives Tb= 2.469kN.m, roughly 2.5kN.m

An electric toaster is rated 1200 watts at 120 volts. what is the total electrical energy used to operate the toaster for 30 sec
Yuliya22 [3333]
Energy can be determined using the formula power multiplied by time, thus for a power of 1200 W (or 1200 Joules per second) and a duration of 30 seconds, the calculation yields 36000 J or 36 kJ of electrical energy.

If you need the electrical charge or current: Power equals voltage times current. Therefore, with a power of 1200 watts and a voltage of 120 V, the current can be found as 1200 W divided by 120 V, which results in 10 Amperes. The charge is obtained by multiplying 10 A by 30 s, yielding 300 C.

A parachutist, after opening her parachute, finds herself gently floating downward, no longer gaining speed. She feels the upwar
Sav [3153]

As the parachutist is descending at a steady rate

we can conclude that

a = \frac{dv}{dt}

Acceleration indicates the change in velocity

given the constant velocity in this scenario

a = 0

Thus, in this situation, we find the acceleration to be zero

It’s understood from Newton's second law

F_{net} = ma

where a is equal to 0

F_{net} = 0

F_{net} = F_g - F_b

Here, the force due to gravity

equals the force due to buoyancy

F_gHence, we can deduce

F_b

therefore

F_g - F_b = 0

as such the upward force is counteracted by the downward force.
