The formula we need to use is displacement.

d=\Delta{x}=x_f-x_i, where xf is final position and xi is initial position.

We report the final position of 5 and the displacement of 2 so the formula is now:

2=5-x_i\Longrightarrow x_i=3.

So the initial position of truck A is 3.

Hope this helps.

An archer puts a 0.30 kg arrow to the bowstring. An average force of 201 N is exerted to draw the string back 1.3 m.a. Assuming
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of archer m=0.3\ kg

Average force F_{avg}=201\ N

extension in arrow x=1.3\ m

Work done to stretch the bow with arrow

W=F\cdot x

W=201\times 1.3=261.3\ m

This work done is converted into kinetic Energy of arrow

W=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where v= velocity of arrow

261.3=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.3\times v^2

v=\sqrt{1742}

v=41.73\ m/s

(b)if arrow is thrown vertically upward then this energy is converted to Potential energy

W=mgh

261.3=0.3\times 9.8\times h

h=\frac{261.3}{0.3\times 9.8}

h=88.87\ m

How are acceleration and speed related​
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Usually, acceleration means the speed is changing, but not always. When an object moves in a circular path at a constant speed, it is still accelerating, because the direction of its velocity is changing. Comment on robshowsides's post “Speed is the magnitude of velocity.

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

A ball hits the ground and the ground pushes up on it

Explanation:

Newton's third law basically states that for every action, there's a reaction.

a ball hitting the ground would be the action. the ground pushing up on it with the same force is the reaction.

Hope this Helps!!! :)

(a) what will an object weigh on the moon's surface if it weighs 100 n on earth's surface
juin [17]
We know the equation

weight = mass × gravity

To work out the weight on the moon, we will need its mass, and the gravitational field strength of the moon.
Remember that your weight can change, but mass stays constant.

So using the information given about the earth weight, we can find the mass by substituting 100N for weight, and we know the gravity on earth is 10Nm*2 (Use the gravitational field strength provided by your school, I am assuming yours in 10Nm*2)

Therefore,

100N = mass × 10
mass= 100N/10
mass= 10 kg

Now, all we need are the moon's gravitational field strength and to apply this to the equation

weight = 10kg × (gravity on moon)
