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

Leviafan [203]

Answer:3.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Speed of marble at Bottom $v=4.22 m/s$

Diameter of loop $d=28.6 cm$

As Energy is conserved therefore Energy at top is equal to energy at bottom

$E_T=E_B$

$\frac{mv^2}{2}+mgh=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}$ ,where $v_0$ is the velocity at bottom

$\frac{v^2}{2}+gh=\frac{v_0^2}{2}$

$v_0^2=v^2+2gh$

$v^2=v_0^2-2gh$

$v=\sqrt{v_0^2-2gh}$

$v=\sqrt{4.22^2-2\times 9.8\times 0.286}$

$v=\sqrt{17.8084-5.6056}$

$v=3.49 m/s$

A cup of coffee is sitting on a table in a train that is moving with a constant velocity. The coefficient of static friction bet

Vikki [24]

Answer:

a = 2.94 m/s²

Explanation:

In order for the cup not to slip, the unbalanced force on cup must be equal to the frictional force:

Unbalanced Force = Frictional Force

ma = μR = μW

ma = μmg

a = μg

where,

a = maximum acceleration for the cup not to slip = ?

μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.3

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

a = (0.3)(9.8 m/s²)

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 67.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr

Illusion [34]

Answer:

$F_{sprinter}=110.4N$

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=67.0 kg

Final Speed vf=8.00 m/s

Initial Speed vi=2.00 m/s

Distance d=25.0 m

Force F=30.0 N

From work-energy theorem we know that the work done equals the change in kinetic energy

W=ΔK=Kf-Ki=1/2mvf²-1/2mvi²

And

$W=F_{total}.d$

$W=1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2\\F_{total}=\frac{1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2}{d} \\F_{total}=\frac{1/2(67.0kg)(8.00m/s)^2-1/2(67.0kg)(2.00m/s)^2}{25.0m} \\F_{total}=80.4N$

and we know that the force the sprinter exerted Fsprinter the force of the headwind Fwind=30.0N

$F_{sprinter}=F_{total}+F_{wind}\\F_{sprinter}=80.4N+30N\\F_{sprinter}=110.4N$
