Hey! I just started AP Physics 1 as well.

Lets break it down:

Displacement is the change in the position of a vector.

Net means total

This means that Net displacement means the addition of displacements. Also said as the "vector sum of the individual displacements".

This is all I know. Good luck!

You have more than 1 vector. When you add them all together as vectors, the net displacement vector is a vector drawn from the arrowhead of the last vector to the non-arrowhead of the first vector. The other responder gave a good description as well. Between us, you have a pretty good definition of what a net displacement vector is.

What do I have to do to figure out " What % of an object’s mass is above the water line if the object’s density is 0.82g/ml " wi
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

18%

Explanation:

There are two equal and opposite forces on a floating object: weight and buoyancy.

W = B

The weight of an object is its mass times gravity: W = mg

Buoyancy is the weight of the displaced fluid: W = mf g

Plugging in:

mg = mf g

m = mf

Mass is density times volume:

ρV = ρf Vf

Solving for the ratio of Vf / V:

Vf / V = ρ / ρf

Given that ρ = 0.82 g/mL and ρf = 1.00 g/mL:

Vf / V = 0.82

That means 82% of the object's volume (and therefore, 82% of its mass, assuming uniform density) is submerged.  Which means that 18% is above the water line.

The Otto-cycle engine in a Mercedes-Benz SLK230 has a compression ratio of 8.8. What is the ideal efficiency of the engine? Use
vodomira [7]

Answer:

e=58%

Explanation:

Given data

The Otto-cycle engine in a Mercedes-Benz SLK230 has a compression ratio of 8.8.

Solution

We want to calculate the ideal efficiency of the engine when ratio of heat capacity for gas used  γ=1.40. Ideal efficiency (e) of the Otto cycle given by:

e=1-(\frac{1}{r^{Y-1} } )\\

Substitute the given values to find efficiency e

e=1-\frac{1}{8.8^{1.4-1} } \\e=0.58\\

e=58%
