1 meter up, 1 meter to the left and then 1 metter down.
It goes 1 meter up and 1 meter down, so its in the same place. The only displacement is 1 meter to the left.

Look at picture:

(hope this helps)

1 meter up and then 1 meter left, and then 1 meter down. The total displacement would be 1 meter. See Ayah's pic to help you understand more better:)<span />

A 47.2 kg girl is standing on a 177 kg plank. The plank, originally at rest, is free to slide on a frozen lake, which is a flat,
Softa [21]

Answer:

v_g,i = 1.208 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of girl; m_g = 47.2 kg

Mass of plank; m_p = 177 kg

Let the velocity of girl to ice be v_g,i

Let the velocity of plank to ice be v_p,i

Since the velocity of the girl is 1.53 m/s relative to the plank, then;

v_g,i + v_p,i = 1.53

From conservation of momentum;

m_g × v_g,i = m_p × v_p,i

Thus;

47.2(v_g,i) = 177(v_p,i)

Dividing both sides by 47.2 gives;

v_g,i = 3.75(v_p,i)

v_pi = (v_g,i)/3.75

Thus, from v_g,i + v_p,i = 1.53, we have;

v_g,i + ((v_g,i)/3.75) = 1.53

v_g,i(1 + 1/3.75) = 1.53

1.267v_g,i = 1.53

v_g,i = 1.53/1.267

v_g,i = 1.208 m/s

A metal cylinder with a mass of 4.20 kg is attached to a spring and is able to oscillate horizontally with negligible friction.
kherson [118]

Answer:

a) k = 120 N / m

, b)    f = 0.851 Hz

, c)  v = 1,069 m / s

, d)  x = 0

, e)  a = 5.71 m / s²

, f)   x = 0.200 m

, g)  Em = 2.4 J

, h) v = -1.01 m / s

Explanation:

a) Hooke's law is

         F = k x

         k = F / x

          k = 24.0 / 0.200

          k = 120 N / m

b) the angular velocity of the simple harmonic movement is

        w = √ k / m

        w = √ (120 / 4.2)

        w = 5,345 rad / s

Angular velocity and frequency are related.

       w = 2π f

        f = w / 2π

        f = 5.345 / 2π

        f = 0.851 Hz

c) the equation that describes the movement is

        x = A cos (wt + Ф)

As the body is released without initial velocity, Ф = 0

        x = 0.2 cos wt

Speed ​​is

       v = dx / dt

       v = -A w sin wt

The speed is maximum for sin wt = ±1

       v = A w

       v = 0.200 5.345

       v = 1,069 m / s

d) when the function sin wt = -1 the function cos wt = 0, whereby the position for maximum speed is

       x = A cos wt = 0

       x = 0

e) the acceleration is

       a = d²x / dt² = dv / dt

       a = - Aw² cos wt

The acceleration is maximum when cos wt = ± 1

       a = A w²

        a = 0.2   5.345

        a = 5.71 m / s²

f) the position for this acceleration is

       x = A cos wt

       x = A

       x = 0.200 m

g) Mechanical energy is

        Em = ½ k A²

        Em = ½ 120 0.2²

       Em = 2.4 J

h) the position is

         x = 1/3 A

Let's calculate the time to reach this point

         x = A cos wt

        1/3 A = A cos 5.345t

         t = 1 / w cos⁻¹(1/3)

The angles are in radians

t = 1.23 / 5,345

t = 0.2301 s

Speed ​​is

v = -A w sin wt

v = -0.2 5.345 sin (5.345 0.2301)

v = -1.01 m / s

i) acceleration

a = -A w² sin wt

a = - 0.2 5.345² cos (5.345 0.2301)

      a = -1.91 m / s²

A resistor, an inductor, and a switch are all connected in series to an ideal battery of constant terminal voltage. What does th
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

The time constant τ = L/R represent the time requiered for the curent to get value of 63 % of its maximun value

Explanation:

In a circuit RL ( serie circuit with a resistor R and the inductor L ) when a voltage is applied the inductor will have a reaction, such reaction consist in the creation of an electromotive force which will prevent the current to get its maximun value. The time constant which in the case of an inductor is

τ = L/R ,  represent the time requiered for the crrent to be 63 % of its final value

1. A race car accelerates at a rate of 15.6 m/s. If it starts from rest, how much time till it
musickatia [10]

Answer: 5.79 s

Explanation:

Vs=0 m/s starting speed(from rest)

Vf=325 km/h= 325*1000/3600= 90.28 m/s

a=15.6m/s²

Using equation for acceleration  we can find out time :

a=(Vf-Vs)/t

t=(Vf-Vs)/a

t=(90.28 m/s-0m/s)/15.6 m/s²

t=5.79 s
