A man attempts to pick up his suitcase of weight ws by pulling straight up on the handle.(Figure 1) However, he is unable to lif
t the suitcase from the floor. Which statement about the magnitude of the normal force n acting on the suitcase is true during the time that the man pulls upward on the suitcase?
A. The magnitude of the normal force is equal to the magnitude of the weight of the suitcase.B. The magnitude of the normal force is equal to the magnitude of the weight of the suitcase minus the magnitude of the force of the pull.C. The magnitude of the normal force is equal to the sum of the magnitude of the force of the pull and the magnitude of the suitcase's weight.D. The magnitude of the normal force is greater than the magnitude of the weight of the suitcase

Answer:
The displacement is zero miles
Explanation:
The displacement of an object that moves from point A to point B is defined as
Where d is the displacement of the object. The displacement does not depend on the trajectory of the object. It only depends on the linear distance between the end point and the starting point.
In this case we know that the person walks from home to work and then walks from work to home. Therefore, the total displacement is the linear distance between the point where its journey begins and the point where the route ends.
The tour begins on the front porch of your house and ends on the front porch of your house (when you return from work). If we call A to the front porch of the house then the displacement is:
The displacement is zero miles, since the person finishes the journey just where it started (front porch)
Answer:
40N
Explanation:
Since both weights are connected to one string, you can say that the tensions above each are equal to each other.
If you do the sum of forces for the 4kg mass, then the tension comes out to 40N (if we take gravity to be 10m/s²). But that seemed too good to be true, so I decided to do the work for the 7kg mass as well [which included finding the normal force (N) and plugging it into the sum of forces for the 7kg mass] to find that it also gives 40N as the answer.
If I were to put my process into steps:
- Write out the sum of Forces for both masses
- Set them equal to each other to find normal force (because this is the only unknown)
- Calculate and compare the two tensions to see if they are equal

Answer:
10.2 km
Explanation:
Displacement is the shortest distance from your original position after movement.
Now, the Zambeef delivery truck moves 18 km north and then 10 km east and then 16 km south.
This means that vertically the truck is 2km short of the 18 km he travelled north..
So we can find the displacement using pythagoras theorem..
Let d be the distance from the current position to the initial position.
Thus;
d² = 2² + 10²
d² = 4 + 100
d = √104
d ≈ 10.2 km
I have attached a diagram showing the direction of this displacement
