There is no movement in line C and the greatest velocity occurs at line D. The answers are:

1. 0.5 m/s

2. 0.25 m/s

3. 14m and -2m

4. -1 m/s

<h3>What is Position - time Graph ?</h3>

Position time graph is the graph of distance or displacement against time. The slope of the graph is velocity.

The given positions of four objects as a function of time are shown

on the graph to the right.

1.) The velocity of object A will be the slope m of the line A.

Slope m = Δx / Δt

m = (4 - 0) / (8 - 0)

m = 4 / 8

m = 0.5 m/s

Velocity at A = 0.5 m/s

2.) The average velocity of object B will be the slope m of the line B.

Slope m = Δx / Δt

m = (6 - 4) / (8 - 0)

m = 2 / 8

m = 0.25 m/s

The average velocity of object B is 0.25s

3.) The object moved a total distance during the first eight seconds will be 4m for A, 2m for B, and 8m for D

Total distance = 4 + 2 + 8 = 14m

It’s net displacement during the same time will be 2. That is,

Displacement = 8 - 6 = -2m

4.) The greatest speed occurred at line D. The velocity of the object moving at the greatest speed will be the slope of the line D

V = -Δx / Δt

V = -8/8

V = -1 m/s

Therefore, there is no movement in line C and the greatest velocity occurs at line D.

A satellite m-500 kg orbits the earth at a distance d 215 km, above the surface of the planet. The radius of the earth is re 6.3

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

7.78 * 10³ m/s

Explanation:

Orbital velocity is given as:

v = √(GM/R)

G = 6.67 * 10^(-11) Nm/kg²

M = 5.98 * 10^(24) kg

R = radius of earth + distance of the satellite from the surface of the earth

R = 2.15 * 10^(5) + 6.38 * 10^(6)

R = 6.595 * 10^(6) m

v = √([6.67 * 10^(-11) * 5.98 * 10^(24)] / 6.595 * 10^(6))

v = √(6.048 * 10^7)

v = 7.78 * 10³ m/s

a mass m at the end of a spring oscillates with a frequency of 0.78 hz . when an additional 730 g mass is added to m, the freque

ozzi

The value of mass m = 0.506kg

Initial frequency = 0.78Hz

additional mass = 730 g = 0.73kg

New frequency = 0.65 Hz

F = 1/2π $\sqrt{x\\}k/m$

0.78 = 1/2π $\sqrt{k/m}$

additional mass,

0.65 = 1/2π $\sqrt{k/m+0.65}$

1.44 = k/m / k/m+0.73

1.44 = m+0.73 / m

1.44m -m = 0.73

1.44m = 0.73

mass m = 0.506kg

a measurement used in physics to express the inertia, a quality that all matter has in common. Effectively, it is the resistance a body of matter offers to a change in its speed or position as a result of the application of a force. The change caused by an applied force is proportional to the mass of the body. The kilograms is the measure of mass in the International System of Units (SI). Its definition is based on the Planck constant, which is set at 6.62607015 1034 joule second. The unit of energy known as a joule is one kilogramme times one square metre per second. The kilogramme is determined by precise measurements of Planck's constant, while the second and metre are already defined in terms of other physical constants.

The speed of a car during a trip is represented in the graph. Compare distance and displacement at four hours into the trip.

mezya [45]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: D.

Explanation:

Distance refers to the amount of space between two points, it is a scalar quantity.

Displacement refers to the space between two points, measure from the minimum path linking them, it is a vector quantity.

I'm not agree with these answers, because the total distance is approximately 500km.

A) The distance traveled is 300 km. This answer is not correct.

B) Distance is 300 km and displacement is 0 km. This answer is not correct because the displacement is also 500 km.

C) Distance is 300 km/hour and displacement is 300 km. 300 km/h is a measure of speed not of distance, this option is wrong.

D) Both distance traveled and displacement are 300 km. I think this is the correct answer because distance and displacement measure the same. but I think both measure 500 km.

Use the scientific method to disprove the theory that “the Earth is the center of the universe.”

Pachacha [2.7K]

Why would we assume that Earth is the center of the the Universe in the first place?

Besides the fact the Earth contains life, it is no different from any other planet that we have ever seen, nor is the solar system in which it resides. There is no reason in the first place to assume its placement in the universe is different either.
