The displacement of the object that moved 4 meters north, then 3 meters east is 5 meters.

<h3>What is displacement?</h3>

Displacement is change in the position of an object. It can be described as the shortest distance between the initial and final position of an object.

The displacement of the object is calculated as follows;

d² = 4² + 3²

d² = 25

d = 5 m

Thus, the displacement of the object that moved 4 meters north, then 3 meters east is 5 meters.

Answer:

5 meters

Explanation:

4  and  3   are legs of a right triangle with the hypotenuse = displacement

Use Pythagorean theorem

4 ^2 + 3^2 = (displacement)^2

displacement = 5 m

Estimate the change in gravitational potential energy when a person with mass 80 kg rise from bed to a standing position. Assumi
Doss [256]

Answer:

change in gravitational potential energy Δ PE = 392 J

Explanation:

given data

mass of the person m  = 80 kg

height of the centre of mass Δh = 0.50 m

to find out

change in gravitational potential energy

solution

we get here change in gravitational potential energy that is express here as

change in gravitational potential energy Δ PE = m × g × Δh     .........1

put here value we get

change in gravitational potential energy Δ PE = m × g × Δh

change in gravitational potential energy Δ PE = 80 × 9.8 × 0.50

change in gravitational potential energy Δ PE = 392 J

A cat lifting a barbell of 2.5 kg a distance of 3 meters. How much work is done lifting the barbell? How much work is done if th
Degger [83]

Work = (force) x (distance)

Force = weight of the barbell = (mass) x (gravity) = (2.5 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)

Work = (2.5 x 9.8 newtons) x (3 meters) = 74 newton-meters = 74 joules.

It takes 74 joules to lift the 2.5-kg load 3 meters up off the floor.

After that, as long as the load is held motionless, no more work is done.

a lead block drops its temperature by 5.90 degrees celsius when 427 J of heat are removed from it. what is the mass of the block
Airida [17]

Answer:

577g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Temperature change = 5.9°C

Amount of heat lost = 427J

Unknown:

Mass of the block = ?

Solution:

The heat capacity of a body is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of that body by 1°C.

                H =  m c Ф

  H is the heat capacity

 m  is the mass of the block

  c is the specific heat capacity

   Ф is the temperature change

Specific heat capacity of lead is 0.126J/g°C

   m = H / m Ф

   m = \frac{427}{0.126 x 5.9}  = 577g

Mass of the lead block is 577g

The blade of a windshield wiper moves through an angle of 90.08 in 0.40 s. The tip of the blade moves on the arc of a circle tha
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration is 6.95 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

angular displacement of the blade, θ = 90.08⁰

duration of motion of the blade, t = 0.4 s

radius of the circle moved by the blade, r = 0.45 m

The angular speed of the blade in radian is calculated as;

\omega  = \frac{\theta}{t} \times \frac{\pi \ radian}{180^0} \\\\\omega  =  \frac{90.08 ^0}{0.4 \ s} \times \frac{\pi \ radian}{180^0} \\\\\omega  = 3.93 \ rad/s

The centripetal acceleration is calculated as;

a = ω²r

a = (3.93)² x 0.45

a = 6.95 m/s²

What causes a objects to move or stay still? claim and evidence
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

A force

Explanation:

A push or a pull is an example of a force and can cause an object to speed up, slow down, etc..  Newton's laws tell us that 1- an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it 2- the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. 3- The third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.. However, forces like gravity and friction can resist movement.
