What is a locus of points

Physics

svetlana [45]3 years ago

A locus is the set of all points (usually forming a curve or surface) satisfying some condition. For example, the locus of points in the plane equidistant from a given point is a circle, and the set of points in three-space equidistant from a given point is a sphere.

A circular track has a radius of 50m.What is the displacement?
stepladder [879]

The displacement of a moving object is the straight-line distance between the place it starts from and the place where it stops.

The displacement of anything moving along a circular track depends on how  far around it goes before it stops.  The greatest displacement it can possibly have is the diameter of the track ... 100m on this particular one ... because that's as far apart as two places on a circle can ever be.

The most interesting case is when the object goes around the circle exactly once.  Then it stops at the same place it started from, the distance between the starting point and ending point is zero, and after all that motion, the displacement is zero.

You take the same 3 kg metal block and slide it along the floor, where the coefficient of friction is only 0.4. You release the
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

1.52905 seconds

4.58715 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

\mu = Coefficient of friction = 0.4

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

a = Acceleration = \mu g

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{\mu g}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-6}{-0.4\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=1.52905\ s

It will take 1.52905 seconds for the block to slow down

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2\mu g}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-6^2}{2\times 0.4\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow s=4.58715\ m

The block will travel 4.58715 m before it stops
