A circular track has a radius of 50m.What is the displacement?

1 answer:

5 0

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.

)If a force of 5.00 N is needed to open a 90.0 cm wide door when applied at the edge opposite the hinges, what force must be app

masha68 [24]

Answer:

A force of 12.857 newtons must be applied to open the door.

Explanation:

In this case, a force is exerted on the door, a moment is performed and the door is opened. If moment remains constant, the force is inversely proportional to distance respect to axis of rotation passing through hinges. That is:

$F \propto \frac{1}{r}$

$F = \frac{k}{r}$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$F$ - Force, measured in newtons.

$k$ - Proportionality ratio, measured in newton-meters.

$r$ - Distance respect to axis of rotation passing through hinges, measured in meters.

From (Eq. 1) we get the following relationship and clear the final force within:

$F_{A}\cdot r_{A} = F_{B}\cdot r_{B}$

$F_{B}=\left(\frac{r_{A}}{r_{B}} \right)\cdot F_{A}$ (Eq. 2)

Where:

$F_{A}$ , $F_{B}$ - Initial and final forces, measured in newtons.

$r_{A}$ , $r_{B}$ - Initial and final distances, measured in meters.

If we know that $F_{A} = 5\,N$ , $r_{A} = 0.9\,m$ and $r_{B} = 0.35\,m$ , then final force is:

$F_{B}= \left(\frac{0.9\,m}{0.35\,m} \right)\cdot (5\,N)$

$F_{B} = 12.857\,N$

A force of 12.857 newtons must be applied to open the door.

Consider again the objects you ranked by distance. Suppose each object emitted a burst of light right now. Rank the objects from

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

That light takes a very long time to hit the planet, and the object is far off the earth. The light of such an item near to the planet takes less time to enter it. The star is 2,5 million light-years from the Planet on the far side of the Andromeda Galaxy. But on the other hand, the moon is 15 crore miles from the earth, so sunlight is quickly reached on the ground as the other thing.

That milky way away from the earth is 66,500 light-years far, that distance between Earth and Orion nebula is 1,344 light-years, with such a distance of 4,367 light-years. The earth is 5.2261 trillion km apart from Pluto.

Why does the frequency of a wave increase as the wavelength decreases

olchik [2.2K]

Explanation:

We know that the number of complete waves formed in 1 sec time is frequency and the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs is wavelength. And we have the formula that

Velocity = wavelength * frequency

or, frequency = velocity / wavelength

Here we can see frequency is directly proportional to velocity and indirectly proportional to wavelength.

So as the wavelength increases frequency decreases and as the wavelength decreases frequency increases.
