Answer: 592.37m

Explanation:

Person D is represented by the blue line.

The total displacement is calculated by subtracting the initial position from the final position. Starting at (0,0), the path consists of moving down two blocks, then right six blocks, followed by moving up four blocks, and finally left one block.

Here, I consider the positive direction of the x-axis to the right and the positive direction of the y-axis as upward.

Thus, the new coordinates will be, with B representing a block:

P =(6*B - 1*B, -2*B + 4*B) = (5*B, 2*B)

Given that B = 110m

P = (550m, 220m)

The displacement corresponds to the length of the vector, since the change from the initial position (0,0) to P is simply P:

P = √(550^2 + 220^2) = 592.37m

Which model is used to describe the interaction of external forces that affect an organization's strategy and ability to compete
ValentinkaMS [1149]

Answer:

Competitive forces model

Explanation:

The Competitive forces model is a crucial instrument in strategic analysis aiming to assess an organization’s competitiveness. Commonly referred to as the "Five Force Model of Porter", this framework includes five key factors: the intensity of rivalry among existing competitors, the negotiating power of buyers, the threat posed by potential new entrants, the bargaining strength of suppliers, and the risk of substitute products or services.

These elements significantly influence an organization's competitive strategy and its likelihood of success.

A person is rowing across the river with a velocity of 4.5 km/hr northward. The river is flowing eastward at 3.5 km/hr (Figure 4
Yuliya22 [1153]

Answer: Her velocity magnitude (v) relative to the shore is 5.70 km/h.

Explanation:

Let Q be the speed of the boat, and P be the speed of the river flow.

R represents the resultant velocity combining boat velocity and river current.

According to vector addition using the law of triangles:

R=\sqrt{P^2+Q^2+2PQCos\theta}

From the diagram:

P = 3.5 km/h, Q = 4.5 km/h

\theta= 90^o

R=\sqrt{P^2+Q^2+2PQCos\theta}=\sqrt{(3.5)^2+(4.5)^2+3.5\times 4.5\times cos90^o}=5.70

(Cos90^o=0),(sin 90^o=1)

\alpha =tan^{-1}\frac{Qsin\theta}{P+Qcos\theta}=tan^{-1}\frac{4.5 sin 90^o}{3.5+4.5 cos90^o}=tan^{-1}\frac{4.5}{3.5}=52.12^o

Therefore, her velocity magnitude relative to the shore is 5.70 km/h.

The amount of electric energy consumed by a 60.0-watt lightbulb for 1.00 minute could lift a
Sav [1105]

Answer:

Explanation:

For a 60W light bulb used for 1 minute:

P = 60 W

t = 1 minute = 60 seconds

This energy is capable of lifting an object weighing 10N.

W = 10N

This indicates conversion of electrical energy into potential energy.

Let's calculate the electrical energy:

Power describes the rate of work done.

Power = Work / time

Thus, work = power × time

Work = 60 × 60

Work = 3600 J

Potential energy calculation:

P.E = mgh

Where the weight is given by:

W = mg

Therefore, P.E = W·h

P.E = 10·h

Thus, we equate:

Potential energy = Electrical energy

P.E = Work

10·h = 3600

Dividing both sides by 10 gives:

h = 3600 / 10

h = 360m

The object can be lifted to a height of 360m.

A delivery man starts at the post office, drives 40 km north, then 20 km west, then 60 km northeast, and finally 50 km north to
Yuliya22 [1153]



assuming north-south is along the Y-axis and east-west along the X-axis

X = total X-displacement

from the graph, total displacement in the X-direction is computed as

X = 0 - 20 + 60 Cos45 + 0

X = 42.42 - 20

X = 22.42 m


Y = total Y-displacement

from the graph, total displacement in the Y-direction is computed as

Y = 40 + 0 + 60 Sin45 + 50

Y = 90 + 42.42

Y = 132.42 m

To calculate the magnitude of the net displacement vector, we apply the Pythagorean theorem, yielding

magnitude: Sqrt(X² + Y²) = Sqrt(22.42² + 132.42²) = 134.31 m

Direction: tan⁻¹(Y/X) = tan⁻¹(132.42/22.42) = 80.4 deg north of east

An electrical short cuts off all power to a submersible diving vehicle when it is a distance of 28 m below the surface of the oc
Ostrovityanka [942]

Answer:

F=126339.5N

Explanation:

To compute the force required to escape, a free-body diagram for the hatch must be drawn. We will equate the downward and upward forces, thus applying the following equation:

Fw=W+Fi+F

where

Fw=   force or weight exerted by the water column above the submarine.

To calculate Fw, we can use:

Fw=h. γ. A

h=height

γ= specific weight of seawater = 10074N / m ^ 3

A=Area

Fw=28x10074x0.7=197467N

w represents the hatch weight = 200N

Fi denotes the internal pressure force in the submarine, which is 1 atm = 101325Pa. We can calculate this force using:

Fi=PA=101325x0.7=70927.5N

Finally, the force needed to open the hatch is determined by the original equation:

Fw=W+Fi+F

F=Fw-W+Fi

F=197467N-200N-70927.5N

F=126339.5N
