So.. if it moves 3cm to the left and 5 cm to the right, you know that it takes 3cm to get it back to it's initial starting position, but it's been displaced.
So the final displacement is 2cm to the right.

Answer: 2 cm to the right

Explanation:

The displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position.

It can be calculated by subtracting the initial position from final position.

Let the sign be positive for direction towards right and negative for direction towards left.

The initial position is 0.

Firstly, object moves towards left = -3 cm

Then, the object moves towards right = 5 cm

Thus, the final position of the object is = -3 cm + 5 cm = +2 cm

Displacement = final position - initial position = + 2 cm - 0 = + 2 cm

Thus, the final displacement is 2 cm to right.

the net external force on the 24-kg mower is stated to be 51 N. If the force of friction opposing the motion is 24 N, what force

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

PART A)

External force will be 75 N

PART B)

distance moved will be 1.125 m

Explanation:

PART A)

Given that net force on the mower is

$F_{net} = 51 N$

now we also know that friction force due to ground is given as

$F_f = 24 N$

now we have

$F_{net} = F_{ext} - F_f$

$51 = F_{ext} - 24$

$F_{ext} = 75 N$

so external force will be 75 N

PART B)

deceleration due to friction when external force is removed from it

$a = \frac{F_f}{m}$

$a = \frac{24}{24} = 1 m/s^2$

now we can find the distance by kinematics

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$0 - 1.5^2 = 2(-1)d$

$d = 1.125 m$

so the distance moved will be 1.125 m

Answer:

Explanation:

Formula E=F/C also E=V/d

In this case use the second formula; E=V/d

Data given; E=4N/C d=8m

So v=E X d

V=4x8=32V

k.e=eV= 2X32=64eV

Imagine you are mpho:how can you help your friend (phenyo) not to be influenced by media? you really feel she needs some help be

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

One of the ways to help someone not to be influenced by media is:

Encourage independent thinking.
Let her know that she should make sure the information she is consuming is free from bias and is factual.

<h3>What is Media Influence?</h3>

This refers to the effects and reactions which the mass media has on the people who listen to them by shaping their views and by controlling the narrative.

With this in mind, we can note that if a person is overtly influenced by the media, then such a person lacks independent thinking and becomes emotional by what he watches on the television or reads from an online source.

This can be changed through the encouragement of independent thinking, and the need to check for factual information from the media news and also to focus more on studies.
