Alan starts from his home and walks 1.3 km east to the library. He walks an additional 0.68 km east to a music store. From there

, he walks 1.1 km north to a friend’s house and an additional 0.42 km north to a grocery store before he finally returns home along the same path. What is his final displacement and total distance traveled?

Answer: final Displacement = 0 km, total distance covered =7 km

Explanation:

Given the following :

From home to library = 1.3 km East

Library to music store = 0.68km East

Music store to friend's house = 1.1km North

Friend's house to grocery store = 0.42 km North

Displacement is the net change in distance traveled.

Eastward distance :

To = (1.3 + 0.68)km = 1.98km East

Fro = (0.68 + 1.3)km = 1.98 km East

Δ distance = (1.98 - 1.98) = 0

Northward direction:

To = (1.1 + 0.42)km = 1.52km north

Fro = (0.42 + 1.1)km = 1.52km North

Δ distance = (1.98 - 1.98) = 0

Hence final Displacement = 0

Total distance covered = 2 × (1.3 + 0.68 + 1.1 + 0.42) = 2 × 3.5

= 7km

You can keep a 1kg apple from falling to the ground by placing it on a table. What reaction force is resisting the force of the
Gnom [1K]

The equilibrium condition allows finding the correct answer for the force that is resisting the weight of the apple is:

        3. Normal force

Newton's second law gives the relationship between <em>force, mass</em> and acceleration of bodies, in the special case that the acceleration is is called the equilibrium condition.

            ∑ F = 0

Where F is the external force.

The free body diagram is a diagram of the forces on bodies without the details of the shape of the body, in the attached we can see a scheme of the forces.

Let's write the equilibrium condition for the apple

          N - W = 0

          N = W

.

We can see that the only forces acting on the apple are its weights and reaction from the table called Normal.

Let's analyze the different answers:

1. False. The apple is not moving therefore the resistance is zero

2. False. The apple is not moving  so friction it with the table is  

3. True. The free-body diagram shows that the normal and the weight are equal

4. False. There is nothing to pull the apple so there is no tension

5. False. Gravity is the weight of the apple that is applied to the table, not from the table to the apple.

In conclusion using the equilibrium condition we can find the correct result for the force that is resisting the weight of the apple is:

        3. Normal force

<span>Visible satellite images are like photos which are dependent on visible light from the sun so they work best during the day. The sensor works by detecting radiation within the range that wavelength is visible. Because of this, the rays is usually seen as reaching earth from the East. </span>
