Which statement is true regarding the relationship between distance and displacement

2 answers:

7 0

Distance is a scalar and equals to the total distance travelled.
Displacement is a vector and equals to the change in position. Final position - Initial position. The relationship between distance and displacement is that it is motion. The object is in motion and changes his position over time.

Distance is always either the same or greater than the displacement for the same trip. Distance can never be less than displacement.

You haven't listed any choices so it's not possible to help you choose the correct one.

Answer:

Approximately $8.4 \times 10^{2}\; \rm N$ , assuming that $g = 9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ .

Explanation:

Let $m$ and $a$ denote the mass and acceleration of Spiderman, respectively.

There are two forces on Spiderman:

Downward gravitational attraction from the earth: $W = m \cdot g$ .
Upward tension force from the strand of web $F(\text{tension})$ .

The directions of these two forces are exactly opposite of one another. Besides, because Spiderman is accelerating upwards, the magnitude of $F(\text{tension})$ (which points upwards) should be greater than that of $W$ (which points downwards towards the ground.)

Subtract the smaller force from the larger one to find the net force on Spiderman:

$(\text{Net Force}) = F(\text{tension}) - W$ .

On the other hand, apply Newton's Second Law of motion to find the value of the net force on Spiderman:

$(\text{Net Force}) = m \cdot a$ .

Combine these two equations to get:

$m \cdot a = (\text{Net Force}) = F(\text{tension}) - W$ .

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}& F(\text{tension})\\ &= m \cdot a + W \\ &= m \cdot (a + g)\\ &= 76\; \rm kg \times \left(1.3\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} + 9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}\right)\\ &\approx 8.4\times 10^{2}\; \rm N\end{aligned}$ .

By Newton's Third Law of motion, Spiderman would exert a force of the same size on the strand of web. Hence, the size of the force in the strand of the web should be approximately $8.4\times 10^{2}\; \rm N$ (downwards.)

A string has its 4th harmonic at 31.5 Hz. What is the fundamental frequency?

seropon [69]

Given data

*The given 4th harmonic frequency is 31.5 Hz

The fundamental frequency is calculated as

$\begin{gathered} f_n=\frac{31.5}{4} \\ =7.875\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the fundamental frequency is 7.875 Hz

A circuit contains two devices that are connected in parallel. If the resistance of one of these devices is 12 ohms and the resi

finlep [7]

<u>Answer</u>

3 Ohms

<u>Explanation</u>

when the resistors are in series, the resistance in the circuit increases. For example, if two resistors, R1 and R2 are in series, the combined resistance is R1+R2.

When connected in parallel, the total resistance is the reciprocal of (1/R1 + 1/R2)

In this case the resistors are in parallel.

Total resistance = (1/12 + 1/4)⁻¹

= (1/3)⁻¹

= 3 Ohms

When changing a tire sized 195/75 R15 to a 5 percent lower profile, the correct tire size would be _____

valentinak56 [21]

Answer and explanation:

When you are changing a car tire, the most important thing is to keep the total diameter as equal as possible.

The total car tire diameter can be calculated as:

$D_{tot orig}=\frac{195 \cdot 75}{2540 \cdot 2}+15''=26.5''$

The profile of this tire is 75 (the higher/taller relation), therefore a 5 percent lower profile would be:

pr=0.95·75=71.25

The problem is that the profiles are normalized and the nearest profile available is 70.

If we take a theorical tire with a profile of 71.25:

$D_{tot orig}=D_{new}\\\frac{195 \cdot 75}{2540 \cdot 2}+15''=\frac{X \cdot 71.25}{2540 \cdot 2}+15''\\X=205.26$

The theorical tire size should be 205/71 R15.

If we look for a real tire size, we should look for a tire with a diameter nearest to 26.5'' and a profile of 70.

The best option for real tire size is: Tire 225/70 R14 (wheel diameter of 26.4'') or 205/70 R15 (wheel diameter of 26.3'').
