Distance is the total length covered = 2m + 3m = 5m
Displacement is his distance from original position.
Displacement = 2m + (-3)m. Representing the 3m walked back as -3.
Displacement = 2m - 3m = -1m.
So his displacement is 1m behind his original starting point.
Answer:
is in the earths orbit
Explanation:
for Suzie to hover in space beside the rotating space station, she and the center of mass of the space station are at relative rest which happens when space station is in Earth orbit, hence she is in the earths orbit.
Answer:
<em>Answer: (A) 0.75 m/s^2</em>
Explanation:
The Second Newton's law states that an object acquires acceleration when an external unbalanced net force is applied to it.
That acceleration is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
It can be expressed with the formula:
Where
Fn = Net force
m = mass
The ice skater pushes against a wall with a force of 59 N. The wall returns the force and the skater now has a net force of Fn=59 N that makes him accelerate. Being m=79 kg the mass of the skater, the acceleration is:
Answer: (A) 0.75 m/s^2
Answer:
0.125 m
Explanation:
Pressure in fluids is given as the product of density, height and acceleration due to gravity and expressed as
P=hdg
Where h is the height, d is density, g is acceleration due to gravity and P is pressure.
Making h the subject of formula then
h=P/dg
Given specific gravity of a substance, its density is equal to specific gravity multiplied by density of water. Taking density of pure water as 1000 kg/m³ then the density of reference fluid will be 1.05*1000=1050 kg/m³
Substituting pressure with 1.29*10³ pa as given then taking g as 9.81 m/s² then
H=1.29*10³÷(9.81*1050)=0.1252366389981068880151448958788408329692m
Rounded off, the height is approximately 0.125 m
Answer: (2) Use the Momentum Principle.
Explanation:
In fact, it is called the <u>Conservation of linear momentum principle,</u> which establishes the initial momentum 
of the asteroids before the collision must be equal to the final momentum 
after the collision, no matter if the collision was elastic or inelastic (in which the kinetic energy is not conserved).
In this sense, the linear momentum 
of a body is defined as:
Where 
is the mass and 
the velocity.
Therefore, the useful approach in this situation is<u> option (2)</u>.
