Goryan [66]3 years ago

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

Wittaler [7]

When she reaches the top, she has more potential energy than she had at the bottom.

         Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

                                     = (40 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m)

                                     =    1,960 more joules .

         Power = (energy) / (time)

                     = (1,960 joules) / (7 seconds)

                     =         280 watts

                    (about 0.375 horsepower)

Simple Harmonic Motion
Delvig [45]

- The net force is greatest at the position of maximum displacement

- The net force is zero when at the equilibrium position

Explanation:

The motion of a spring is a Simple Harmonic Motion, in which the displacement of the end of the spring is given by a periodic function of the form

x=Asin (\omega t)

where A is the amplitude (the maximum displacement), and \omega the angular frequency of the motion.

We can analyze the net force acting on the spring by looking at Hooke's law:

F=kx

where

F is the net force

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement

From the equation, we notice immediately that:

  • The net force is the greatest when the displacement x is the greates, so at the position in which the spring has maximum compression or stretching
  • The net force is zero when the displacement x is zero, so when the spring crosses the equilibrium position

A rock that has deformed ____ under stress keeps its new shape when the stress is released.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Elastically

Explanation:

A rock that has deformed Elastically under stress keeps its new shape when the stress is released.

In elastic deformation the original shape of the object is regained when the stress is removed. Whereas in plastic deformation the original shape is parmanently deformed with the application of stress.

At what rate must a cylindrical spaceship rotate if occupants are to experience simulated gravity of 0.50 gg? Assume the spacesh
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The time needed is T  = 16.8 s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The magnitude of the stimulated acceleration due gravity is  a  =  0.5 g

        The diameter of the spaceship is  d =  35m

       

Generally the force acting on the spaceship is  

       F  =  ma

Given that the spaceship is rotating it implies that the force experienced by the occupant is a centripetal force so

      F  = \frac{mv^2}{r}

Thus  

       ma  =  \frac{mv^2}{r}

=>    \frac{v^2}{r}  =  a

      Generally the speed of this spaceship is mathematically represented as

      v =  \frac{2 \pi}{T}

=>    v^2  =   [\frac{2\pi}{T}] ^2

=>     \frac{\frac{4\pi^2 r^2}{T^2} }{r}  = 0.5g

=>       \frac{4 \pi^2 r }{T^2} =  0.5 g

=>         T  = \sqrt{ \frac{4\pi^2 r}{0.5g}}

substituting values

          T  = \sqrt{ \frac{4* (3.142)^2 *(35)}{0.5 * 9.8}}

         T  = 16.8 s
