Answer:

2 m

Explanation:

The displacement of any body is the shortest distance in an object's path between its initial and final point.

The ball would travel 3 m from the point of throwing then fall down 5 m to the ground. The total distance traveled is 7 m.

The displacement of the ball will be the distance from the point of throwing to the ground i.e., 2 m as it is the shortest distance between the initial and final point of the ball's journey.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Resistance = 400000 Ohms

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 1200 V

Current = 3 mA = 3/1000 = 0.003 A

To find the resistance;

Voltage = current * resistance

Resistance = 1200/0.003

Resistance = 400000 Ohms
