What is the displacement if a person traveled from point B to E?

Physics
1 answer:
nikitadnepr [17]2 years ago
3 0
<h3>Answers:</h3>
  1. displacement = 3 km
  2. displacement = 0 km

=====================================================

Explanation:

Problem 1

Focus on the y axis which is the distance axis.

Point B has a y coordinate of 2

Point E has a y coordinate of 5

The displacement is 5-2 = 3, which means the person has moved 3 km.

--------------------------

Problem 2

Both D and E have the same y coordinate. So the displacement is 0 (since 5-5 = 0). No change in distance has occurred. During segment DE, the person is resting. By the way it is impossible to go back to D since it's impossible to go back in time.

Un automovil parte del reposo y acelera uniformemente hasta alcanzar una rapidez de 0,255km/h en un tiempo de 3/4 Minutos determ
Elden [556K]

Answer:

a = 1.5*10^-3 m/s^2

x = 0.033m = 3.3cm

Explanation:

To calculate the acceleration and the distance traveled by the car you use the following formulas:

v=v_o+at    (1)

x=v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2   (2)

v: final velocity = 0,255 km/h

vo: initial velocity = 0 m/s

t: time = 3/4 min

a: acceleration = ?

x: distance

In order to use the equations (1) and (2) you first convert the units of the final velocity to m/s, and the time to seconds.

v=0,255\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}\\\\v=0.07m/s\\\\t=\frac{3}{4}min*\frac{60s}{1min}=45s

Next, you solve the equation (1) for the acceleration a:

a=\frac{v}{t}=\frac{0.07m/s}{45s}=1.5*10^{-3}\frac{m}{s^2}

With this value of a you can calculate the distance traveled by the car, by using the equation (2):

x=\frac{1}{2}(1.5*10^{-3}m/s^2)(45s)^2=0.033m=3.3cm

hence, the acceleration of the car is 1.5*10^-3 m/s^2 and the distance traveled in 3/4 min is 0.033m

How long will it take a 400 W engine to lift a 100 N object up to a height of 80 m?
Norma-Jean [14]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

20 seconds

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given</u>;

  • Power of the engine as 400 watts
  • Force as 100 N
  • Distance the object is lifted up as 80 m

We are required to determine the time taken.

  • We need to know that power is the rate of work done

Therefore;

  • Power = Work done ÷ time

But, work done  = Force × distance

  • Therefore; In this case;

Work done = 100 N × 80 m

                  = 8000 Joules

  • Since , Power = Work done ÷ time

Then, time = Work done ÷ Power

Thus;

Time = 8000 J ÷ 400 W

       = 20 s

Therefore, the time taken by the engine to lift the object is 20 seconds
