A dog runs 50 meters north 40 meters east and 20 meters south what is the displacement

1 answer:

3 0

So....
imagine the x and y axis or draw it on a piece of paper, a white board or even on your wall if you like. I'm kidding just draw it on a piece of paper

50m up and 20m down
the dog's displacement is 50 - 20 which is 30
your answer is 30m north

In some cases, neither of the two equations in the system will contain a variable with a coefficient of 1, so we must take a fur

Margaret [11]

Answer:

D = -4/7 = - 0.57

C = 17/7 = 2.43

Explanation:

We have the following two equations:

$3C + 4D = 5\ --------------- eqn (1)\\2C + 5D = 2\ --------------- eqn (2)$

First, we isolate C from equation (2):

$2C + 5D = 2\\2C = 2 - 5D\\C = \frac{2 - 5D}{2}\ -------------- eqn(3)$

using this value of C from equation (3) in equation (1):

$3(\frac{2-5D}{2}) + 4D = 5\\\\\frac{6-15D}{2} + 4D = 5\\\\\frac{6-15D+8D}{2} = 5\\\\6-7D = (5)(2)\\7D = 6-10\\\\D = -\frac{4}{7}$

Put this value in equation (3), we get:

$C = \frac{2-(5)(\frac{-4}{7} )}{2}\\\\C = \frac{\frac{14+20}{7}}{2}\\\\C = \frac{34}{(7)(2)}\\\\C = \frac{17}{7}\\$

The wavelength of light that has a frequency of 1.20 × 1013 s-1 is ________ m.

klio [65]

The relationship between frequency and wavelength for an electromagnetic wave is
$c=f \lambda$
where
f is the frequency
$\lambda$ is the wavelength
$c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light.

For the light in our problem, the frequency is $f=1.20 \cdot 10^{13} s^{-1}$ , so its wavelength is (re-arranging the previous formula)
$\lambda= \frac{c}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.20 \cdot 10^{13} s^{-1}}= 2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}m$
