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.

I have a massive rock weighing 3,000 Newtons but I can only accelerate it to 500 m/s2 what is its mass?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

6 kg

Explanation:

F=ma

F is Force(newtons)

m is mass(kg)

a is acceleration(m/s^2)

Plug in the numbers

3000 = m(500)

divide both sides by 500 to cancel out the 500.

3000/500=6

6 = m

6kg is the mass

Determine for which class of lever the output force is always greater than the input force. for which class is the output force
umka2103 [35]
The 3rd class lever is the <span>output force always less than the input force, becuase its mechanical advantage is always less than 1. this also due that in a 3rd class lever the effort arm is shorter than the load arm, that is why the output is lower than the input force. but 3rd class lever is a speed multiplier lever</span>
