Vikentia [17]4 years ago

Displacement of a body is always in a straight line in the direction of the final position regardless of the path taken to reach the final position.

Therefore, the displacement of the car can be obtained by joining the car's initial position to the final position and then counting the number of squares covered by the line. Then we multiply the number of squares by the scale and note the direction of the final position from the initial.

that is: 4×1km= 4km North since displacement is a vector.

A person uses a surfboard to ride every 30th wave crest towards the beach. The wave crest travels at a speed of 1.6m/s and the d
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

8

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................ Equation 1

Where v = velocity/ speed of the wave, λ = wave length of the wave, f = number of waves the person surf in one seconds.

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 1.6 m/s, λ = 24 m

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 1.6/24

f = 0.0667 wave/seconds.

If,

in one seconds, the person surf a total wave crest of 0.0667

Therefore,

in one hours, he will surf a total wave crest of (0.0667×60×60) = 240 waves crest

He rides for every 30th wave crest,

Hence,

number of wave crest the person surf in one hour = 240/30 = 8

A student tosses a ball horizontally from a balcony to a friend 3.8 meters down below them. How long does the ball take to reach
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The time it takes the ball to fall 3.8 meters to friend below is approximately 0.88 seconds

Explanation:

The height from which the student tosses the ball to a friend, h = 3.8 meters above the friend

The direction in which the student tosses the ball = The horizontal direction

Given that the ball is tossed in the horizontal direction, and not the vertical direction, the initial vertical component of the velocity of the ball = 0

The equation of the vertical motion of the ball can therefore, be represented by the free fall equation as follows;

h = 1/2 × g × t²

Where;

g = The acceleration due gravity of the ball = 9.81 m/s²

t = The time of motion to cover height, h

Then height is already given as h = 3.8 m

Substituting gives;

3.8 = 1/2 × 9.81 × t²

t² = 3.8/(1/2 × 9.81) ≈ 0.775 s²

∴ t = √0.775 ≈ 0.88 seconds

The time it takes the ball to fall 3.8 meters to friend below is t ≈ 0.88 seconds.

Difference between rest and motion?
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Rest and motion are relative terms. In simple terms, an object that changes its position is said to be in motion while the opposite action causes an object to be at rest.
