A rock is thrown straight upward off the edge of a balcony that is 5 m above the ground. The rock rises 10 m, then falls all the

way down to the ground below the balcony. What is the rock's displacement?

Displacement = distance and direction from the start-point
to the end-point, regardless of the route followed on the way.

From the throw to the 'plop', the displacement is 5 meters down.

Answer:

a) v=0.999124c

b) E=7.566*10^{22}

c) E_a=760 times\ larger

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Distance to Betelgeuse d_b=430ly

Mass of Rocket M_r=20000

Total Time in years traveled T_d=36years

Total energy used by the United States in the year 2000 E_{2000}=1.0*10^20

Generally the equation of speed of rocket v mathematically given by

v=\frac{2d}{\triangle t}

v=860ly/ \triangle t

where

\triangle t=\frac{\triangle t'}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\frac{36}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\sqrt{(860)^2+(36)^2}

\triangle t=860.7532

Therefore

v=\frac{860ly}{ 860.7532}

v=0.999124c

b)

Generally the equation of the energy E required to attain prior speed mathematically given by

E=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-(v/c)^2} }-1(20000kg)(3*10^8m/s)^2

E=7.566*10^{22}

c)Generally the equation of the energy E_a required to accelerate the rocket mathematically given by

E_a=\frac{E}{E_{2000}}

E_a=\frac{7.566*10^{22}}{1.0*10^{20}}

E_a=760 times\ larger

A bicyclist travels 4.5 km west, then travels 6.7 km at an angle 27.0 degrees South of West. What is the magnitude of the bicycl
Dimas [21]

Answer:

<em>10.90km</em>

Explanation:

Magnitude of the total displacement is expressed using the equation

d = √dx²+dy²

dx is the horizontal component of the displacement

dy is the vertical component of the displacement

dy = -6.7sin27°

dy = -6.7(0.4539)

dy = -3.042

For the  horizontal component of the displacement

dx = -4.5 - 6.7cos27

dx = -4.5 -5.9697

dx = -10.4697

Get the magnitude of the bicyclist's total displacement

Recall that: d = √dx²+dy²

d = √(-3.042)²+(-10.4697)²

d = √9.2538+109.6146

d = √118.8684

<em>d = 10.90km</em>

<em>Hence the magnitude of the bicyclist's total displacement is 10.90km</em>
