How do you determine true displacement value of an object that has moved?

Physics
1 answer:
WITCHER [35]3 years ago
3 0
Diceplacement is the distance an object has traveled in a certain direction
for example, if you were to walk North for 20m, then east for 40m, the <u>distance</u> you have traveled is 60m however your displacement is the distance between your starting position and your end position;
sqrt(20^2+40^2) = 44.7m
and because displacement is a vector, there needs to be a direction;
sin(theta)=40/44.7
theta=63.4 degrees East of North

therefore the true displacement is 44.7m at 63.4 degrees East of North

A 1.90-m-long barbell has a 25.0 kg weight on its left end and a 37.0 kg weight on its right end. if you ignore the weight of th
gregori [183]

Answer: The center of gravity is 1.1338 m away from the left side of the barbell

Explanation:

Length of the barbell = 1.90 m

The distance center of gravity from left = x

Mass on the left side = 25 kg

The distance center of gravity from right = 1.90 - x

Mass on the right side = 37 kg

At the balance point: m_1x_1=m_2x_2

25 kg\times x=37 kg\times (1.90-x)

x=1.1338 m

The center of gravity is 1.1338 m away from the left side of the barbell

A freight car moves along a friction less level railroad track at constant speed. The car is open on top. A large load of coal i
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The velocity of the freight car decreases.

Explanation:

This question is answered by the conservation of momentum principle.

When the freight car is moving at a certain speed, it has a constant momentum.

We will call this M1.

The equation for M1 will be:

M1 = Mass * Speed

Now when the coal is dumped into the freight car, the Mass increases.

Since conservation of momentum states that the momentum will remain the same. We have:

M1 = (Mass of freight + Mass of coal) * Speed

Since M1 is constant, if the mass increases, the speed had to decrease to keep the equation true.
