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 76 N crate is hung from a spring
lutik1710 [3]

Answer: 0.169 (3 s.f.)

Explanation:

Force = 76 N

Spring constant = 450 N/m

Extension/displacement = x

Hooke's law states that: F = kx

Therefore, 76 = 450 X x

76/450 = x

0.169 (3 s.f.) = x

A charge Q is uniformly spread over one surface of a very large nonconducting square elastic sheet having sides of length d. At
yaroslaw [1]

The electric field of a very large (essentially infinitely large) plane of charge is given by:

E = σ/(2ε₀)

E is the electric field, σ is the surface charge density, and ε₀ is the electric constant.

To determine σ:

σ = Q/A

Where Q is the total charge of the sheet and A is the sheet's area. The sheet is a square with a side length d, so A = d²:

σ = Q/d²

Make this substitution in the equation for E:

E = Q/(2ε₀d²)

We see that E is inversely proportional to the square of d:

E ∝ 1/d²

The electric field at P has some magnitude E. Now we double the side length of the sheet while keeping the same amount of charge Q distributed over the sheet. By the relationship of E with d, the electric field at P must now have a quarter of its original magnitude:

E_{new} = E/4

When you drop a object on earth, earth gets pulled slightly toward that object as well. How do I calculate the force if the eart
kiruha [24]

The gravitation force with which the earth is being pulled can be determined by applying Newton's law of universal gravitation.

<h3>What is gravitation force?</h3>

According Newton's law of universal gravitation, the force exerted between two objects in the universe is directly proportional to the product of masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Mathematically, the formula for gravitation force is given as;

F = GmM/R²

where;

  • m is the mass of the object
  • M is mass of earth
  • R is the distance of the object from earth
  • G is universal gravitation constant

If the mass of the object is know and the distance between earth  and the object is also known, the force with which the earth is being pulled can be calculated by applying Newton's law of universal gravitation as shown in the above equation.

Thus, the force with which the earth is being pulled can calculated as well.

If you increase the force acting on an object, what will happen to the object's motion
Mama L [17]
Force is directly proportional to rate of change of velocity so it increasing, velocity (motion of the object) will also increase.

Hope this helps!
