Answer:

The answer to your question is: D.

Explanation:

Distance refers to the amount of space between two points, it is a scalar quantity.

Displacement refers to the space between two points, measure from the minimum path linking them, it is a vector quantity.

I'm not agree with these answers, because the total distance  is approximately 500km.

A) The distance traveled is 300 km.  This answer is not correct.

B) Distance is 300 km and displacement is 0 km.  This answer is not correct because the displacement is also 500 km.

C) Distance is 300 km/hour and displacement is 300 km. 300 km/h is a measure of speed not of distance, this option is wrong.

D) Both distance traveled and displacement are 300 km. I think this is the correct answer because distance and displacement measure the same. but I think both measure 500 km.

Answer:

A) The distance traveled is 300 km.

Explanation:

Since the graph represents the distance time graph so we don't have any idea about the path length of the car.

So here we can not comment about the displacement of the motion of the car

so here we can see from the graph that

at t = 0  the position of the car is x = 0

now when car will reach at t = 4 hour

the distance of the car is

d = 300 km

so we can say that distance covered by the car will be

d = 300 km

We wrap a light, nonstretching cable around a 10.0 kg kg solid cylinder with diameter of 38.0 cm cm . The cylinder rotates with
amm1812

Answer: 14.16

Explanation:

Given

d = 38cm

r = d/2 = 38/2 = 19cm = 0.19m

K.E = 510J

m = 10kg

I = 1/2mr²

I = 1/2*10*0.19²

I = 0.18kgm²

When it has 510J of Kinetic Energy then,

510J = 1/2Iω²

ω² = 1020/I

ω² = 1020/0.18

ω² = 5666.67

ω = √5666.67 = 75.28 rad/s

Velocity is the block, v = ωr

V = 75.28 * 0.19

V = 14.30m/s

The "effective mass" M of the system is

M = (14.0 + ½*10.0) kg = 19.0 kg

The motive force would be

F = ma

F = 14 * 9.8

F = 137.2N

so that the acceleration would be

a = F/m

a = 137.2/19

a = 7.22m/s²

Finally, using equation of motion.

V² = u² + 2as

14.3² = 0 + 2*7.22*s

204.49 = 14.44s

s = 204.49/14.44

s = 14.16m

Can the big bang's sound still be heard?
AleksandrR [38]
There is no sound in space because there is no medium to move it. However i think the big bang can still been seen in the form of background radiation but i am unsure.

A ball is thrown straight up. What will
Papessa [141]

Answer:

velocity at the top: 0 m/s

acceleration at the top: -9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Assuming up is positive and down is negative;

The velocity of the ball at the top of its path will be 0 m/s and the acceleration will be negative.

The velocity is 0 m/s because the ball does not move at the top of its path, and it switches from a positive velocity to a negative velocity. It must go through 0 in order to go from positive to negative.

The acceleration, however, is always negative no matter where the ball is in its motion. This negative acceleration causes the ball to slow down as it reaches the top, and speed up as it reaches the bottom.

<u>Think about it:</u> If there wasn't a negative acceleration, and it was instead 0, the ball would never come back down and instead keep going in a straight line.

PLS ANSWER FAST WILL GIVE BRAINLEST!!!
Kipish [7]

Answer:

2 Newtons

Explanation:

F = ma

Therefore, your mass would be 1kg and your acceleration would be 2m/s/s

Plug the numbers into the equation:

(1kg)(2m/s/s)

which will equal

2 Newtons

You are watching a magic show. For one trick the magician rolls a ball down a hill. Suddenly the ball stops moving down the hill
poizon [28]
The forces (what causes the ball to accelerate) are gravity, friction, and the normal force. In this case, gravity is a downward force caused by the gigantic mass of the Earth and the mass of the ball. Keep in mind that a force is acceleration. Acceleration is a change in velocity. The ball speeds up. Than it stops speeding up at a certain point where the frictional force (along with air friction) equals the parallel component of gravity. 




Newton's Second Law States- The greater mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object.
