Derek's displacement is 0 miles, because he starts and stops in the same place. The distance he covered would be 1 mile.

Distance is the total length covered.
Displacement is the distance between the starting point and the end point. If Derek started and stopped in the same place, he had a displacement of 0.

Hope this helps!

A satellite is put into an orbit at a distance from the center of the Earth equal to twice the distance from the center of the E
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

995 N

Explanation:

Weight of surface, w= 4000N

Gravitational constant, g, is taken as 9.81 hence mass, m of surface is W/g where W is weight of surface

m= 4000/9.81= 407.7472

Using radius of orbit of 6371km

The force of gravity of satellite in its orbit, F=\frac {GMm}{(2r)^{2}}=\frac {GMm}{4(r)^{2}}

Where G=6.67*10^{-11} and M=5.94*10^{24}

F=\frac {(6.67*10^{-11}*5.94*10^{24}*407.7472)}{4*({6.371*10^{6}m)}^{2}}

F= 995.01142 then rounded off

F=995N

In physics, the use of force to move an object is called what
valentina_108 [34]

Answer: work

Explanation:

Often in physics, work is defined as the use of force to move an object. Technically, work is actually a change in energy caused by a force external to the system. The formula for work is W = F⊥d or W = FdcosΘ. Using this formula, we can see that work is just when a force is applied for a certain displacement. In simpler terms, that's just a force used to move an object a certain distance.

A radio station's channel, such as 100.7 fm or 92.3 fm, is actually its frequency in megahertz (mhz), where 1mhz=106 hz and 1hz=
AURORKA [14]
The frequency of the radio station is
f=88.7 fm= 88.7 MHz = 88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz

For radio waves (which are electromagnetic waves), the relationship between frequency f and wavelength \lambda is
\lambda= \frac{c}{f}
where c is the speed of light. Substituting the frequency of the radio station, we find the wavelength:
\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz}=3.38 m

The total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom
rewona [7]

Answer:

Is the mass number

Explanation:

Every atom is usually identified by using two different numbers:

- Atomic number: generally labelled with Z, corresponds to the number of protons in the nucleus, so Z = p

- Mass number: generally labelled with A, corresponds to the number of protons+neutrons in the nucleus, so A = p + n

To find the number of neutrons in a nucleus, therefore, we can do

n = A - Z
