"<span>Give an example of a situation in which you would describe an object's position in (a) one-dimension coordinates (b) two-dimension coordinates (c) three-dimension coordinates"

Solution
(a) One dimension example: a man walking along a metal plank. We just need to specify one coordinate, the distance from the beginning of the plank.

(b) Two-dimension example: a ball moving on a circle. In this case, we need two coordinates: (x,y) to specify the position of the ball at every instant, since it is moving on a 2-D plane.

(c) The position of an airplane in the air: in this case we need 3 coordinates, the height, the latitude and the longitude of the airplane.</span>

An Earth satellite is orbiting at a distance from the Earth's surface equal to one Earth radius (4 000 miles). At this location,

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:0.25 times

Explanation:

Given

Distance of satellite from earth surface=Radius of earth

Force on the satellite is F=mg'

where g'=acceleration due to gravity at that point

Distance from center of Earth=R+R=2R

Gravitational Force is given by

$F=\frac{GM_1M_2}{r^2}$

Force $F=mg'=\frac{GMm}{4R^2}-----1$

Force on earth surface $F=mg=\frac{GMm}{R^2}------2$

Divide 1 and 2 we get

$\frac{g'}{g}=\frac{R^2}{4R^2}$

$g'=\frac{g}{4}$

Find the total displacement of a mouse that travels 1.0 m north and then 0.8 m south.

andreev551 [17]

North: 1m
South: 0,8m

Direction:

1m>0,8m

so mouse moved north

Distance:

1m-0,8m=0,2m

so mouse traveled 0,2m

Answer: The mouse moved 0,2m north.
