THE NUMERICAL RATIO OF DISPLACEMENT TO DISTANCE IS:​

Physics
1 answer:
Tamiku [17]3 years ago
7 0

There's no general rule.  

Displacement is the length of a straight line from start to finish, and distance is how far you actually traveled from start to finish.

The only thing we really know is that distance can never be shorter than displacement.  So I guess the answer is:

<em>The numerical ratio of displacement to distance is always 1 or less</em>.

(But it has to be written ALL IN CAPITALS.)

faust18 [17]

Complete Question:

In the same configuration of the previous problem 3, four long straight wires are perpendicular to the page, and their cross sections form a square of edge length a = 13.5 cm. Each wire carries 7.50 A, and the currents are out of the page in wires 1 and 4 and into the page in wires 2 and 3.

a) Draw a diagram in a (x,y) plane of the four wires with wire 4 perpendicular to the origin. Indicate the current's directions.

b) Draw a diagram of all magnetic fields produced at the position of wire 3 by the other three currents.

c) Draw a diagram of all magnetic forces produced at the position of wire 3 by the other three currents.

d) What are magnitude and direction of the net magnetic force per meter of wire length on wire 3?

Answer:

force, 1.318 ₓ 10⁻⁴

direction, 18.435°

A 600g toy train completes 10 laps of its circular track in 1 min 20s. If the radius of the track is 1.2 m, Find the centripetal
Lynna [10]

Wow !  This will take more than one step, and we'll need to be careful
not to trip over our shoe laces while we're stepping through the problem.

The centripetal acceleration of any object moving in a circle is

                          (speed-squared)  /  (radius of the circle)  .

Notice that we won't need to use the mass of the train.

We know the radius of the track.  We don't know the trains speed yet,
but we do have enough information to figure it out.  That's what we
need to do first.

Speed  =  (distance traveled) / (time to travel the distance).

Distance = 10 laps of the track.   Well how far is that ? ? ?

1 lap = circumference of the track = (2π) x (radius) =  2.4π  meters

10 laps =  24π  meters.

Time = 1 minute 20 seconds  =  80 seconds

The trains speed is  (distance) / (time)

                               =  (24π meters) / (80 seconds)

                               =        0.3 π  meters/second .

NOW ... finally, we're ready to find the centripetal acceleration.

                                 <span> (speed)²  /  (radius)

                           =    (0.3π m/s)²  /  (1.2 meters)

                           =    (0.09π m²/s²)  /  (1.2 meters)

                           =    (0.09π  /  1.2)   m/s²

                           =          0.236  m/s²  .        (rounded)

If there's another part of the problem that wants you to find
the centripetal FORCE ...

Well,       Force = (mass) · (acceleration) .

We know the mass, and we ( I ) just figured out the acceleration,
so you'll have no trouble calculating the centripetal force.       </span>

If you stood on a planet having a mass four times higher than Earth's mass, and a radius two times 70) lon longer than Earth's r
BigorU [14]

CHECK COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW

you stood on a planet having a mass four times that of earth mass and a radius two times of earth radius , you would weigh?

A) four times more than you do on Earth.

B) two times less than you do on Earth.

C) the same as you do on Earth

D) two times more than you do on Earth

Answer:

OPTION C is correct

The same as you do on Earth

Explanation :

According to law of gravitation :

F=GMm/R^2......(a)

F= mg.....(b)

M= mass of earth

m = mass of the person

R = radius of the earth

From law of motion

Put equation b into equation a

mg=GMm/R^2

g=GMm/R^2

g=GM/R^2

We know from question a planet having a mass four times that of earth mass and a radius two times of earth radius if we substitute we have

m= 4M

r=(2R)^2=4R^2

g= G4M/4R^2

Then, 4in the denominator will cancel out the numerator we have

g= GM/R^2

Therefore, g remain the same

Explain why a cow that touches an electric fence experiences a mild shock
Minchanka [31]
The voltage exists between the fence and the ground.  The cow is grounded. The cow is touching the ground, completing the circuit of electricity. <span>When the cow comes into contact with the fence, it becomes an electric ground which sends an electric current into the cow, through the cow, and into the ground. The pain experienced from the shock is due to the current that flows through the cow.</span>
