In physics, displacement is a physical quantity that is used to describe the overall change in the position of an object/person.
In other words, it describes how far you are from your initial position.

In the given problem, the initial position is the same as the final position. This means that overall change in position is zero, which also means that the difference between the final and initial positions is zero.

Based on the above, the displacement is zero.

The low areas created as a sound wave propagates are called rarefactions
qwelly [4]

The answer is; pressure

The sound is a longitudinal wave meaning the particles vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. Sound waves, therefore, produce compression (akin to the crest in a transverse wave) and rarefaction regions (akin to a trough in a transverse wave) as its energy is propagated in the medium.

Inside most ball-point pens is a small spring that compresses as the pen is pressed against the paper. If a force of 0.1 N compr
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

20 N/m

Explanation:

From the question,

The ball-point pen obays hook's law.

From hook's law,

F = ke............................ Equation 1

Where F = Force, k = spring constant, e = compression.

Make k the subject of the equation

k = F/e........................ Equation 2

Given: F = 0.1 N, e = 0.005 m.

Substitute these values into equation 2

k = 0.1/0.005

k = 20 N/m.

Hence the spring constant of the tiny spring is 20 N/m

According to the article "Nuclear shapes" by Renee Lucas the nucleus's shape is mainly modified by vibrational and rotational features happening within the cell. According to the article if i read correctly "near closed shells spherical shapes prevail, while between closed shells the large number of valence nucleons in orbit with large particle angular momentum leads to nuclei with large deformations leading them to not only maintain its shape but also alloying it to work.
