Displacement means the straight distance from the start point to the
end point, no matter what route was followed along the way.

The spider ends up 1 meter to the left of where he started, so his
displacement for the trip is 1 meter.

If he returns to the place where he started, then his displacement
will be zero.

A lever has a total length of 12 meters with a fulcrum at the exact center of the lever. Which best describes how to
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The correct option is the last option.

Explanation:

Generally, when trying to create a mechanical advantage of a lever for an apparatus or a machine, <u>the load is usually moved closer to the fulcrum</u>. Hence, if a lever has a total length of 12 meters and the fulcrum is placed at 6 meters (the center), the best way (based on the previous statement) to double the mechanical advantage of the lever is <u>to move the fulcrum 4 meters toward the side on which the force is applied</u>. The correct option is the last option.

Two 65.0 kg ice skaters are standing 2.00 m away from each other in the ice. What is the gravitational attraction between the tw
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

A) 7×10⁻⁸ N

Explanation:

r = Distance between the two skaters = 2 m

m₁ = m₂ = Mass of the two skaters = 65 kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

From Newton's Law of Universal gravity

F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow F=6.67\times 10^{-11} \frac{65\times 65}{2^2}\\\Rightarrow F=7.045\times 10^{-8}\ N

∴ Force of gravity between the two skaters is 7×10⁻⁸ N

The electric potential difference between the ground and a cloud in a particular thunderstorm is 2.5 × 109 V. What is the magnit
muminat

Answer:

U = - 4 x 10^{-10}

Explanation:

ΔV = potential difference = 2.5 * 10^9 Volts

q = charge on electron = -1.6 * 10^{-19} C

electric potential energy is given as

U = q ΔV = ( -1.6 * 10^{-19}  ) ( 2.5 * 10^9  )

               = - 4 x 10^{-10}
