What is the displacement for a driver who travels 10 km to get to a point that is 4 km from his starting point

His displacement is 4 km. The length of the route that he takes to get there is not relevant in measuring his displacement.

What would happen to the moon if there was no sun and earth ?
iragen [17]

Answer:

High tides would be much smaller than they are now, and low tides would be even lower. This is because the sun would be influencing the tides, not the moon; however, the sun has a weaker pull, which would decrease the tides. ... Winds could become much faster and much stronger without the moon.

A particle executes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 1.69 cm. At what positive displacement from the midpoint of its
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer: 0.0146m

Explanation: The formula that defines the velocity of a simple harmonic motion is given as

v = ω√A² - x²

Where v = linear velocity, A = amplitude = 1.69cm = 0.0169m, x = displacement.

The maximum speed of a simple harmonic motion is derived when x = A, hence v = ωA

One half of maximum speed = speed of motion

3ωA/2 = ω√A² - x²

ω cancels out on both sides of the equation, hence we have that

A/2 = √A² - x²

(0.0169)/2 = √(0.0169² - x²)

0.00845 = √(0.0169² - x²)

By squaring both sides, we have that

0.00845² = 0.0169² - x²

x² = 0.0169² - 0.00845²

x² = 0.0002142

x = √0.0002142

x = 0.0146m

Please. Physics is so difficult.
Softa [21]

Answer:

0.010 m

Explanation:

So the equation for a pendulum period is: y=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} where L is the length of the pendulum. In this case I'll use the approximation of pi as 3.14, and g=9.8 m\s. So given that it oscillates once every 1.99 seconds. you have the equation:

1.99 s = 2(3.14)\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}}\\

Evaluate the multiplication in front

1.99 s = 6.28\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8m\backslash s^2}

Divide both sides by 6.28

0.317 s= \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}}

Square both sides

0.100 s^2= \frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}

Multiply both sides by m/s^2  (the s^2 will cancel out)

0.984 m = L

Now now let's find the length when it's two seconds

2.00 s = 6.28\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8m\backslash s^2}}

Divide both sides by 6.28

0.318 s = \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}

Square both sides

0.101 s^2 = \frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}

Multiply both sides by 9.8 m/s^2 (s^2 will cancel out)

0.994 m = L

So to find the difference you simply subtract

0.984 - 0.994 = 0.010 m

What is the momentum of a ten ton truck which is sitting still?
ANTONII [103]

The momentum of the truck is given by:

p = mv

p = momentum, m = mass, v = velocity

There isn't too much work to do here; the truck is at rest, therefore its velocity is 0. This means the product of m and v is 0, giving the momentum as 0.
