Measure if how far an object has moved.

You can't really measure how far an object has moved. If you weren't
watching it the whole time, you can only measure how far it <em>IS</em> now from
where it started, but you don't know what route it traveled to get there.

The distance between where it started and where it ended up is called
the object's "displacement".  That's the length of the straight line between
those two points.  And it's also the shortest possible distance the object
could have moved in order to get to where it is now.

Funny thing:  When you walk all the way around a yard, a track, or a building,
or drive a car one lap around the track, your <em>displacement</em> is zero, because
you end up in the same place you started from, and the distance is zero.
If somebody saw you before and after, but didn't see you walk or drive,
they wouldn't know that you had moved at all.

You can use any coordinate system you like in order to solve a projectile motion problem. To demonstrate the truth of this state
posledela

Answer:

a)  y₂ = 49.1 m ,    t = 1.02 s , b)   y = 49.1 m , t= 1.02 s

Explanation:

a) We will solve this problem with the missile launch kinematic equations, to find the maximum height, at this point the vertical speed is zero

            v_{y}² = v_{oy}² - 2 g (y –yo)

The origin of the coordinate system is on the floor and the ball is thrown from a height

           y-yo = v_{oy}² /2 g&#10;            y- 0 = 10.0²/2 9.8&#10;            y - 0 = 5.10 m&#10;            &#10;The height from the ground is the height that rises from the reference system plus the depth of the ground from the reference system&#10;             y₂ = 5.1 + 44&#10;             y₂ = 49.1 m&#10;Let's use the other equation to find the time&#10;              [tex]v_{y} = v_{oy} - g t

              t = v_{oy} / g

              t = 10 / 9.8

              t = 1.02 s

b) the maximum height

            y- 44.0 = v_{y}² / 2 g

            y - 44.0 = 5.1

            y = 5.1 +44.0

            y = 49.1 m

The time is the same because it does not depend on the initial height

              t = 1.02 s

1. The illuminance on a surface is 6 lux and the surface is 4 meters from the light source. What is the intensity of the source?
Crank

<u>Answer</u>

1) A. 96 Candelas

2) A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

3) C. 5 meters


<u>Explanation</u>

Q1

The formula for calculation the luminous intensity is;

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

Lv = Ev × r²

= 6 × 4²

= 6 × 16

= 96 Candelabra

Q2

For converging lenses, an upright image is formed when the object is between the lens and the principal focus while a diverging lens always forms and upright image.

A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

Q3

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

square radius = Luminous intensity/ illuminance

r² = 100/4

= 25

r = √25

= 5 m
