Displacement is B) the shortest distance between the starting point and the ending point of a motion
Explanation:
Displacement is a vector quantity; it is a vector connecting the initial position to the final position of motion of an object.
Since it is a vector, it has both a magnitude and a direction:
- The magnitude of the displacement is the length of the vector, therefore it corresponds to the shortest distance in a straight line between the starting point and the ending point of the motion
- The direction goes from the starting point to the ending point
Therefore, the correct answer is
B) the shortest distance between the starting point and the ending point of a motion
Note that displacement is very different from distance. Consider for example an object moving in a circle, returning to its initial position: in this case, the distance covered by the object is not zero (it is the length of the circle), however the displacement is zero, because the initial position corresponds to the ending position.

0.92 month
Explanation:
= radius of the orbit of moon around the earth = 
= Mass of earth = 
= Time period of moon's motion
According to Kepler's third law, Time period is related to radius of orbit as
inserting the values, we get
we know that
1 day = 24 hours = 24 x 3600 sec = 86400 s
1 month = 30 days
<u>Answers</u>
(a) 6.75 Joules.
(b) 5.27 m/s
(c) 0.75 Joules
<u>Explanation</u>
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body in motion.
(a) its kinetic energy at A?
K.E = 1/2 mv²
= 1/2 × 0.54 × 5²
= 6.75 Joules.
(b) its speed at point B?
K.E = 1/2 mv²
7.5 = 1/2 × 0.54 × V²
V² = 7.5 ÷ 0.27
= 27.77778
V = √27.77778
= 5.27 m/s
(c) the total work done on the particle as it moves from A to B?
Work done = 7.5 - 6.75
= 0.75 Joules
Answer:
The young tree, originally bent, has been brought into the vertical position by adjusting the three guy-wire tensions to AB = 7 lb, AC = 8 lb, and AD = 10 lb. Determine the force and moment reactions at the trunk base point O. Neglect the weight of the tree.
C and D are 3.1' from the y axis B and C are 5.4' away from the x axis and A has a height of 5.2'
