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.)

A 250 kg car has 6875 kg•m/s of momentum. What is it’s velocity?
liraira [26]

Answer:

v = 27.5 m/s

Explanation:

p = m × v

6,875 = 250 × v

250v = 6,875

v = 6,875/250

v = 27.5 m/s

An empty water tank has a rectangular base with side lengths of 1.2 m and 2.3 m. The weight of the tank applies a pressure of 35
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Weight = 966 Newton.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Length = 1.2 m

Width = 2.3 m

Pressure = 350 Pa

To find the weight of the tank;

We know that weight is the force of gravity acting on an object multiplied by its mass.

Weight = mg = force

Hence, we would determine the force using the parameters that were given.

But we would first determine the area of the rectangular tank.

Area of rectangle, A = length * width

A = 1.2 * 2.3

A = 2.76 m²

Mathematically, pressure is given by the formula;

Pressure = force/area

Force = pressure * area

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Force = 2.76 * 350

Force = 966 Newton

Therefore, the weight of the tank is 966 Newton.

There are pluses and minuses to being a competitive person.<br> True <br> False
melomori [17]
True, because being a competitive person means that you like challenging yourself to do more things, but if you’re really competitive you might challenge yourself too hard, and might hurt yourself, which will make you not want to really compete with anything anymore

Describe the conditions that are necessary for mechanical energy to be a conserved quantity.
rusak2 [61]
Mechanical energy is conserved when there are no non-conservative forces acting on the body. Examples are friction and elastic forces of stress in a body. These non-conservative forces convert mechanical energy to other forms of energy like heat and sound

Hope this makes sense
