How are distance and displacement the same?

Physics

Sonja [21]4 years ago

Distance and displacement are two quantities that may seem to mean the same thing yet have distinctly different definitions and meanings. Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion.

In the case of straight line, when the object is not repeating it's path then distance and displacement would be same.

Why do waves with frequencies higher than visible light hurt while those with lower frequencies do not affect us?
STALIN [3.7K]
Lower frequency waves have less strength to penetrate. How bad a wave is all depends on how well it penetrates our bodies. Visible light doesn't penetrate ur skin, but UV rays (higher than visible) can go through our skin, making it <span>bad" for us. High frequency waves have more energy and move faster</span>

an always be used to calculate the electric field. relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge en
Temka [501]

Complete Question:

Gauss's law:

Group of answer choices

A. can always be used to calculate the electric field.

B. relates the electric field throughout space to the charges distributed through that space.

C. only applies to point charges.

D. relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

E. relates the surface charge density to the electric field.

Answer:

D. relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the total (net) flux of an electric field at points on a closed surface is directly proportional to the electric charge enclosed by that surface.

This ultimately implies that, Gauss's law relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

This electromagnetism law was formulated in 1835 by famous scientists known as Carl Friedrich Gauss.

Mathematically, Gauss's law is given by this formula;

ϕ = (Q/ϵ0)

Where;

ϕ is the electric flux.

Q represents the total charge in an enclosed surface.

ε0 is the electric constant.

A 1.00-kg sample of steam at 100.0 °C condenses to water at 100.0 °C. What is the entropy change of the sample if the latent hea
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The entropy change of the sample of water =  6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

Explanation:

Entropy: Entropy can be defined as the measure of the degree of disorder or randomness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.mol

Mathematically, entropy is expressed as

ΔS = ΔH/T....................... Equation 1

Where ΔH = heat absorbed or evolved, T = absolute temperature.

<em>Given:  If 1 mole of water = 0.0018 kg,</em>

<em>ΔH = latent heat × mass = 2.26 x 10⁶ × 1 = 2.26x 10⁶ J.</em>

<em>T = 100 °C = (100+273)  K = 373 K.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>ΔS =2.26x 10⁶/373</em>

ΔS = 6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

Therefore the entropy change of the sample of water =  6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

Pls help me… I missed the whole lesson and I have no clue what to do-
galben [10]

Answer:

1) 50 facing towards the right

2) 150 facing right

3) 200 facing right

4) 0- no direction

5) 50- facing left

6) 50 facing right

Explanation:

forces in opposite directions and equal magnitudes counteract each other. in number 2 they face the same direction so they would just be added. in number 4 they oppose each other so would be subtracted

What is the difference between resilience and modulus of resilience
pshichka [43]
<span>Resilience is the amount of energy that can be put into a volume of material and still be stored elastically. ie When the energy goes away, the material regains its undeformed shape. The Mod of R is the amount that can be stored by a unit volume of that material. The Mod of R is heavily related to Youngs Modulus.</span>
