<span>Distance is the actual path covered and displacement is the shortest distance from the object to the point of origin.

Distance is a total of 10m because you walked 6m initially and then another 4m. 6m + 4m = 10m

Displacement includes the starting point. You walked 6m North. Then you turned around and walked 4m South. Your total displacement is 2m because that is your current distance from the starting point.

An electron is released from rest in a uniform electric field and accelerates to the east at a rate of 4x106m/s2. What is the ma
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force on electron in an electric field E = eE where E is electric field .

acceleration = eE / m where m is mass of electron .

Putting the values

4 x 10⁶ = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x E / 9.1 x 10⁻³¹

E = 22.75 x 10⁻⁶ N/C

The direction of electric field will be towards west ( opposite to east )

because of negative charge on electron .

A rock is launched at angle theta=53.2∘ above the horizontal from an altitude of ℎ=182 km with an initial speed ????0=1.61 km/s.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The rock's final speed at the required altitude will be 42.24 m/s.

Explanation:

Let's start by finding the initial vertical speed.

Vertical Speed = 1.61 * Sin (53.2°)

Vertical Speed = 0.8 m/s

We want to know the speed of the rock when it is at an altitude of 91 km.

The total displacement of the rock from its starting position will thus be equal to -91 km

We can use this in the following equation:

s=u*t+\frac{1}{2} (a*t^2)

-91=0.8*t+\frac{1}{2} (-9.8*t^2)

t = 4.3918 seconds

Thus it takes 4.3918 seconds to reach the required altitude. We can now find the speed as follows:

V=U+at

V=0.8+(-9.8)*(4.3918)

V = -42.24

Thus the rock's final speed at the required altitude will be 42.24 m/s.

Each driver has mass 79.0 kg. Including the masses of the drivers, the total masses of the vehicles are 800 kg for the car and 4
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Force exerted on the car driver by the seatbelt = 8139.4 N = 8.14 kN

Force exerted on the truck driver by the seatbelt = 1628.2 N = 1.63 kN

It is evident that the driver of the smaller vehicle has it worse. The car driver is in way more danger in this perfectly inelastic head-on collision with a bigger vehicle (the truck).

Explanation:

First of, we calculate the velocity of the vehicles after collision using the law of conservation of Momentum

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

Since the collision of the two vehicles was described as a head-on collision, for the sake of consistent convention, we will take the direction of the velocity of the bigger vehicle (the truck) as the positive direction and the direction of the car's velocity automatically is the negative direction.

Velocity of the truck before collision = 6.80 m/s

Velocity of the car before collision = -6.80 m/s

Let the velocity of the inelastic unit of vehicles after collision be v

Momentum before collision = (4000)(6.80) + (800)(-6.80) = 27200 - 5440 = 21,760 kgm/s

Momentum after collision = (4000 + 800)(v) = (4800v) kgm/s

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

21760 = 4800v

v = (21760/4800)

v = 4.533 m/s (in the direction of the big vehicle (the truck)

So, we then apply Newton's second law of motion which explains that the magnitude change in momentum is equal to the magnitude of impulse.

|Impulse| = |Change in momentum|

But Impulse = (Force exerted on each driver by the seatbelt) × (collision time) = (F×t)

Change in momentum = (Momentum after collision) - (Momentum before collision)

So, for the driver of the truck

Initial velocity = 6.80 m/s (the driver moves with the velocity of the truck)

Final velocity = 4.533 m/s

Change in momentum of the truck driver = (79)(6.80) - (79)(4.533) = 179.1 kgm/s

(F×t) = 179.1

F × 0.110 = 179.1

F = (179.1/0.11)

F = 1628.2 N = 1.63 kN

So, for the driver of the car

Initial velocity = -6.80 m/s (the driver moves with the velocity of the car)

Final velocity = 4.533 m/s

Change in momentum of the car driver = (79)(-6.80) - (79)(4.533) = -895.3 kgm/s

(F×t) = |-895.3|

F × 0.110 = 895.3

F = (895.3/0.11)

F = 8139.4 N = 8.14 kN

Hope this Helps!!!
