What is the difference between a continuous spectrum and a dis?

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 162 ft, then climbs 127 ft at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. it then moves 127 ft at an angle of 46.0° below the horizontal. if we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)

Total solidification times of three casting geometries are to be compared: a sphere, a cylinder, in which the length-to-diameter ration - 1.0, and a cube. volume = 1000 cm^3 for all three shhapes, and the same casting alloy is used. a) determine the solidification times of each geometry b) based on the results of part (a), which geometric element would make the best riser? c) if the mold constant = 3.5 min/cm^2 in chvorinov's rule, compute the total solidification time for each casting.

A3.9 g aluminum foil ball with a charge of +4.1×10−9 c is suspended on a string in a uniform horizontal e⃗ field. the string deviates to the right and makes an angle of 30∘ with the vertical. part a part complete what information about the e⃗ field can you determine for this situation? what information about the field can you determine for this situation? only the magnitude of e⃗ only the direction of e⃗ both the magnitude and the direction of e⃗ none of the above previous answers correct part b determine the magnitude of the electric field. express your answer with the appropriate units. e e = nothing nothing request answer part c determine the direction of the electric field. determine the direction of the electric field. to the right to the left away from you toward you
