What does displacement describe?

1 answer:

5 0

<span>A vector which implies that an object has been moved or has changed its position is called displacement. Displacement is usually associated with length and direction of an imaginary straight point. It is the shortest distance from the initial point to the final point of final position (P). Displacement can also be described as the length between the final and initial point on the shortest path. It means an overall change in direction of the object or point of a body.</span>

GUESS WHAT? I'LL MAKE YOU BRAINLIEST! EASY QUESTION!!

avanturin [10]

Here are the 2 reasons:

- Sun damages the eyes

Long-term, unprotected exposure to ultraviolet light from the sun can damage the retina. The retina is the back of the eye, where the rods and cones make visual images, which are then sent to the visual centers in the brain. Damage from exposure to sunlight can also cause the development of cloudy bumps along the edge of the cornea, which can then grow over the cornea and prevent clear vision. UV light is also a factor in the development of cataracts.

- Heat Exhaustion

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), heat exhaustion is the body’s response to excessive loss of water and salt, usually through excessive sweating. People working in a hot environment are at risk of heat exhaustion.

What is kepler's law??

Elan Coil [88]

<h2>QUESTION:- </h2>

➜what is kepler's law??

$\huge\red{\boxed{\huge\mathbb{\red A \pink{N}\purple{S} \blue{W}\orange{ER}}}}$

Kepler gave the three laws or theorems of motion of the orbitals bodies

${\huge {\bold{ \red{ \star}}}}{ \blue{ \bold{FIRST \: \: \: LAW}}}$

This law state that the celestial bodies revolves around the stars in elliptical orbit and star as a single focus.

Example :- Earth revolves around the Sun as assuming it as single focus

This also shows that earth revolves around the sun in elliptical orbit.

${\huge {\bold{ \blue{ \star}}}}{ \green{ \bold{SECOND \: \: \: LAW}}}$

Area covered by the planet is equal in equal duration of time irrespective of the position of the planet.

It also states that Angular momentum is constant

As Angular momentum is constant it means areal velocity is also constant.

$\frac{ \triangle \: A}{ \triangle \: T} = \frac{L}{2m}△T△A=2mL$

where:-

A is the area.

T is the time.

L is the angular momentum.

M is the mass of the body.

${\huge {\bold{ \green{ \star}}}}{ \purple{ \bold{THIRD \: \: \: LAW}}}$

square of the time of the revolution is directly proportional to the cube of the distance between the planet and star in Astronomical unit.

${T}^{2} = {a}^{3}T2=a3$

where:-

T = time of revolution

a is the distance between the planet and star.

In your own words describe the motion of convection currents?

Marysya12 [62]

Convection is the circular motion that occurs as hotter air or liquid increases when the cooler air or liquid drops down, and has faster moving molecules, rendering it less dense. Convection currents within the earth shift layers of magma, and currents are formed by convection in the ocean.

g A 1.5-kg mass attached to spring with a force constant of 20.0 N/m oscillates on a horizontal, frictionless track. At t = 0, t

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

(a) f = 0.58Hz

(b) vmax = 0.364m/s

(d) E = 0.1J

(e) x(t)=0.1m*cos(2π(0.58s^{-1})t)

Explanation:

(a) The frequency of the oscillation, in a spring-mass system, is calculated by using the following formula:

$f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$ (1)

k: spring constant = 20.0N/m

m: mass = 1.5kg

you replace the values of m and k for getting f:

$f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{20.0N/m}{1.5kg}}=0.58s^{-1}=0.58Hz$

The frequency of the oscillation is 0.58Hz

(b) The maximum speed is given by the following relation:

$v_{max}=\omega A=2\pi f A$ (2)

A: amplitude of the oscillations = 10.0cm = 0.10m

$v_{max}=2\pi (0.58s^{-1})(0.10m)=0.364\frac{m}{s}$

The maximum speed of the mass is 0.364 m/s.

The maximum speed occurs when the mass passes trough the equilibrium point of the oscillation.

(c) The maximum acceleration is given by the following formula:

$a_{max}=\omega^2A=(2\pi f)^2 A$

$a_{max}=(2\pi (0.58s^{-1}))(0.10m)=1.32\frac{m}{s^2}$

The maximum acceleration is 1.32 m/s^2

The maximum acceleration occurs where the elastic force is a maximum, that is, where the mass is at the maximum distance from the equilibrium point, that is, the acceleration.

(d) The total energy of the system is calculated with the maximum potential elastic energy:

$E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2=\frac{1}{2}(20.0N/m)(0.10m)^2=0.1J$

The total energy is 0.1J

(e) The displacement as a function of time is:

$x(t)=Acos(\omega t)=Acos(2\pi ft)\\\\x(t)=0.1m\ cos(2\pi(0.58s^{-1})t)$

A hair dryer draws a current of 10 A plugged into a 120 V outlet. What is the resistance of the hair dryer?

Ganezh [65]

<span>This problem can be solved by the formula used to find resistance. The formula is R=V/I which basically means divide the Voltage by the Current to find the Resistance in an object. Ohm's law.</span>
