An athlete completes one round of a circular track of diameter 200 m in 40 s. What will be the distance covered and the displace

ment at the end of 2 minutes 20 s?

Zepler [3.9K]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Displacement is the shortest distance possible between initial and final position.

As the athlete is in circular motion , displacement is zero. [ THis is because , the initial and final position is the same ]

Distance covered in 1 round = Circumference of the circle

Circumference of the circle = 2πr

Diameter = 200 m

Radius = 100 m

Distance covered in 1 round[ 40 sec ] = 2 × 22/7 × 100 = 628.57 m

Distance covered in 1 sec = 628.57 ÷ 40 = 15.71 m

2min 20 sec = 140 sec

Distance covered in 140 sec = 15.71 × 140 = 2199.4 m

For each complete round the displacement is zero. Therefore for 3 complete rounds, the displacement will be zero.

At the end of his motion, the athlete will be in the diametrically opposite position. That is, displacement = diameter = 200 m.

Hence, the distance covered is 2200 m and the displacement is 200 m.

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the two dissimilar bodies rubbed together, they the both of the bodies becomes charged. One of the body gets positive charge and the other body gets negative charge.

the positively charged body loses some electrons and the negatively charged body gains some electrons.

According to the properties of charge when the plastic rod is rubbed with the fur, the plastic rod has a tendency to get the negative charge and the fur has a tendency to get positive charge.

So,

When we rub a plastic rod with a piece of fur, electrons--------------transfer from fur----------------to the -------plastic-----. In the result charging fur with -positive-----------charge and plastic rod with-----negative--------charge.

An object of volume 0.0882 m3 is
vfiekz [6]

The density of the fluid is 776.3 m^{-3}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Buoyant force is the upward pushing force whenever an object is trying to get immersed in fluid. So this is the force given by the fluid on the object which is trying to get immersed. The buoyant force is found to be directly proportional to the product of density of the object, volume of the object. And here the acceleration due to gravity will be acting as proportionality constant.

      Buoyant force = Density \times Volume \times Acceleration

As, buoyant force is given as 671 N and volume is 0.0882 m^{3} and acceleration is known as 9.8 m/s^{2}. Then density is

   \text { Density }=\frac{\text { Buoyant force }}{\text {Volume } \times \text {Acceleration}}

Thus,

   \text { Density }=\frac{671}{0.0882 \times 9.8}=\frac{671}{0.86436}=776.296 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}

Density is 776.3 kg m^{-3}.

Alexis walked 1.5 km to her house in 0.5 hours. What is Alexis’ speed?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Speed = 3 [km/h]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of speed which relates the distance traveled for a while.

Distance = 1.5 [km] = 1500 [m].

time = 0.5 [hr] = 1800 [s]

Speed = Distance/time

Speed = 1.5/0.5

Speed = 3 [km/h] or 1500/1800 = 0.8333[m/s]
