Let us assume a man travelled from a point A to a point B over a distance 'd'. After a while he travels the same distance back to point A.

Therefore, since his initial and final positions are the same, displacement is equal to zero, and the distance travelled is (d + d) = 2d, which is not zero.

A 1.15 kg book is at rest on the table. What is the magnitude of the normal force that the table is exerting on the book?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

11.27N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the book  = 1.15kg

Unknown:

Magnitude of the normal force  = ?

Solution:

The normal force is the vertical force exerted by a body on an object.

It can be described as the weight of an object.

 Normal force  = mass x acceleration due to gravity

 Normal force  = 1.15 x 9.8  = 11.27N

Kate gathered 3 of the same size made of different materials: glas, clear plastic, and aluminum painted black. She placed on the
Anestetic [448]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>To relate the type of box material to the warmth inside the box </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

3 boxes are made with three different materials glass, plastic and Aluminium. Thermal conductivity is different for different materials. thermal conductors allow easy flow of heat through them and insulators allow minimal or no flow of heat through them.

Thus the amount by which an object gets heated up depends on the value of its conductivity. In this experiment, glass and plastic are insulators and aluminium is a conductor. Among glass and plastic, plastic is a better insulator.

<em>Thus the heat contained in the boxes will be of the order </em>Aluminium>glass>plastic.
