The change in position is known as

Physics
1 answer:
Goryan [66]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

distance or displacement

Explanation:

the answer can be displacement or displacement. if the required measure is between two points, we can call it as distance. but if we are to find the distance moved, we call it displacement. though it sounds pretty similar, they are very different. displacement is the shortest distance of movement of a body to its final point (or to the asked point) and distance is the total distance travelled by the body. and while distance is a scalar quantity, that this value shows the magnitude, displacement is a vector quantity, that this value should show both magnitude and direction.

for example if an object travels from point A to point B that is a 10 meters away and back, the distance will be 10+10 which is 20 meters. but the displacement is 0!

since not much information is given, the answer can be both distance or displacement

Lithium has 3 protons. how many neutrons are in the isotope lithium -8
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

5 neutrons

Explanation:

Both protons and neutrons have a mass of about 1 atomic mass unit (amu). The number in the notation for an isotope is its mass in amu. That means the number is essentially the sum of protons and neutrons in the isotope (electrons don't contribute significantly to the mass).

If lithium has 3 protons, lithium-8 has 8 - 3 = 5 neutrons.

A weather balloon is partially inflated with helium gas to a volume of 2.0 m³. The pressure was measured at 101 kPa and the temp
Yanka [14]

Answer:

4.7 m³

Explanation:

We'll use the gas law P1 • V1 / T1 = P2 • V2 / T2

* Givens :

P1 = 101 kPa , V1 = 2 m³ , T1 = 300.15 K , P2 = 40 kPa , T2 = 283.15 K

( We must always convert the temperature unit to Kelvin "K")

* What we want to find :

V2 = ?

* Solution :

101 × 2 / 300.15 = 40 × V2 / 283.15

V2 × 40 / 283.15 ≈ 0.67

V2 = 0.67 × 283.15 / 40

V2 ≈ 4.7 m³

Why are we not crushed by the weight of the atmosphere on our shoulders?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Due to equal pressure in all the direction at a particular level in a fluid medium (Pascal's Law)

Explanation:

We are not crushed by the weight of the atmosphere because atmosphere is a fluid and we are immersed into it. So, according to the Pascal's law the the pressure a each point in a horizontal level is equal in all the direction irrespective of the orientation of a body.

Variation of pressure in term of the height of a fluid medium is given as:

P=\rho.g.h

\rho=density of fluid

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of the free surface of the fluid from the immersed object.

  • And atmosphere has very less variation of pressure with change in height as it is a rare medium fluid and so for a human height there is very negligible variation of pressure at the heat of a human with respect to his toe.

How many electrons flow through a point in a wire in 7.00 s if there is a constant current of I = 4.35 A?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

1.90×10²⁰ Electrons

Explanation:

From the question,

Q = It.................... Equation 1

Where Q = charge flowing through the wire, I = current, t = time

Given: I = 4.35 A, t = 7.00 s

Substitute these values into equation 1

Q = 4.35(7.00)

Q = 30.45 C.

But,

1 electron contains 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C

therefore,

30.45 C = 30.45/1.6×10⁻¹⁹  electrons

= 1.90×10²⁰ Electrons
