How do you find total displacement

1 answer:

5 0

That's actually a lot easier than finding total <u><em>distance.</em></u>

To find displacement, you only have to know where the trip started from, and where it ended. It doesn't matter what route was followed to actually travel from the start to the finish. The displacement is the straight-line distance and direction between those two points.

The tangential acceleration of a cart moving at a constant speed in a horizontal circle is:

qaws [65]

Answer:

$a=0$ ∵ $\alpha=0\ rad.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

The tangential acceleration of a cart moving at a constant speed in a circle is:

The angular velocity is constant when the circular speed is constant.

We know that the (instantaneous) tangential velocity of such object is given by:

$v=r.\omega$

Now for angular acceleration we have a constant angular speed:

$\alpha=0\ rad.s^{-1}$

And angular acceleration is related to tangential acceleration as:

$a=r.\alpha$

$\Rightarrow a=0$
