Displacement is a vector quantity. So, you incorporate the vector calculations when you try to determine the resultant vector. This is the shortest path from the starting point to the endpoint. If they are moving on one axis only, you use sign conventions. For motions moving to the left, use the negative sign. If it's moving to the right, then use the positive sign. Now, it the object moves 2 km to the left, and 2 km also to the right, the displacement is zero.

Displacement = 2 km - 2km = 0

Generally, the equation is:
<span>Displacement = Distance of motion to the right - Distance of motion to the left</span>

Compare to a low wavelength sound wave, a high wavelength sound wave Select all that apply Group of answer choices travels slowe
viktelen [127]

Answer:

B. has a smaller frequency

C. travels at the same speed  

Explanation:

The wording of the question is a bit confusing, it should be short/long for wavelength and low/high for frequency. I assume low wavelength mean short wavelength.

All sound wave travel with the same velocity(343m/s) so wavelength doesn't influence its speed at all. It won't be faster or slower, it will have the same speed.

Velocity is a product of wavelength and frequency. So, a long-wavelength sound wave should have a lower frequency.

The option should be:

A. travels slower -->false

B. has a smaller frequency -->true

C. travels at the same speed  --->true

D. has a higher frequency  --->false

E. travels faster has the same frequency  --->false

Mario rdoll a coin up a slope at 2 m/s. It travels 2.7 m, comes to a stop and rolls back down. What is the coin's acceleration?
leva [86]

The coin's acceleration is <u>0.37 m/s²</u>

Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an item with appreciation to time. Accelerations are vector portions. The orientation of an item's acceleration is given by the orientation of the net pressure appearing on that object.

<u>Calculation:-</u>

<u />

V² = U -2aS

a = U/2S

  = 2/2×2.7

   =  <u>0.37 m/s²</u>

Acceleration is the charge at which velocity modifications with time, in terms of each speed and route. A factor or an object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it quickens or slows down. movement on a circle is extended despite the fact that the rate is consistent because the course is continually changing.
