Dexter uses a compass to walk 140m due east. What is his distance and displacement?

Physics
1 answer:
solmaris [256]3 years ago
3 0
The distance is 140 m and the displacement is 140 m E. Displacement can change though. For example, if Dexter walked 140 m east then walked 40 meters west the displacement would be 100 m E. Displacement is just how far away an object is from the start.

The amount of movement of the particles depends on the amount of _________ acting on them and their relationship to other atoms.
Liula [17]

Answer: The amount of movement of the particles depends on the amount of <u>force</u> acting on them and their relationship to other atoms.

Explanation:

The inter-atomic force determines the inter-atomic distance which governs the amount of movement of the particles.

For example in solids, the inter-atomic force is stronger and hence, the distance between any atoms is very very small which restricts the movement of the particles. On the other hand, in case of liquids and gases, the inter-atomic forces are not very strong and there is more distance between the atoms which allows free movement of particles.

Which of the following illustrates an increase in potential energy? Group of answer choices a wind-up toy winding down a person
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

A person climbs a set of stairs

Explanation:

Potential energy is said to be possessed by an object due to its position. As the height from the ground level increase, the potential energy increases. It is calculated by the below formula as :

P = mgh

Out of the given options, the option that illustrates an increase in potential energy is option (b) i.e. a person climbs a set of stairs. As he steps one stair, its position from ground increases. It means its potential energy increases.
