Mark and Sofia walk together down a long, straight road. They walk without stopping for 4 miles. At this point Sofia says their

displacement during the trip must have been 4 miles; Mark says their current position must be 4 miles. Who, if either, is correct?a)Markb)Mark, only if their starting point is the origin of a coordinate systemc)Sofia, only if their starting point is the origin of a coordinate systemd)Sofia

Answer:

d) Sofia.

Explanation:

If they walked down a straight road, their displacement will be 4 miles. However, their position depends on the origin of a coordinate system which could be located anywhere. If the origin of the coordinate system was at the starting point of their walk, then and only then, you can say that their position is also 4 miles.

A beam of light has a wavelength of 4.5 x10^-7 meter in a vacuum. the frequency of this light is
valkas [14]
The basic relationship between frequency and wavelength for light (which is an electromagnetic wave) is
c= f \lambda
where c is the speed of light, f the frequency and \lambda the wavelength of the wave. 
Using \lambda=4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m and c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s, we can find the value of the frequency:
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m}=6.7 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

A ball rolls horizontally off a table and a height of 1.4 m with a speed of 4 m/s. How long does it take the ball to reach the g
Hitman42 [59]

For vertical motion, use the following kinematics equation:

H(t) = X + Vt + 0.5At²

H(t) is the height of the ball at any point in time t for t ≥ 0s

X is the initial height

V is the initial vertical velocity

A is the constant vertical acceleration

Given values:

X = 1.4m

V = 0m/s (starting from free fall)

A = -9.81m/s² (downward acceleration due to gravity near the earth's surface)

Plug in these values to get H(t):

H(t) = 1.4 + 0t - 4.905t²

H(t) = 1.4 - 4.905t²

We want to calculate when the ball hits the ground, i.e. find a time t when H(t) = 0m, so let us substitute H(t) = 0 into the equation and solve for t:

1.4 - 4.905t² = 0

4.905t² = 1.4

t² = 0.2854

t = ±0.5342s

Reject t = -0.5342s because this doesn't make sense within the context of the problem (we only let t ≥ 0s for the ball's motion H(t))

t = 0.53s
