Sally started at the starting point.

She walked 10m forward.  So far, she walked 10m, and she was 10m from the starting point.

Then she walked 5m backward.  So far, she walked 15m, but she was only 5m from the starting point.

The distance she walked was 15m.  But her displacement is how far she is from the starting point ... that's only 5m

Displacement = 5 meters

Distance = 15 meters

Displacement is 10m less than distance walked.  <em>(B)</em>


===> If she kept going and walked <u><em>another </em></u>5m backward, she would be back where she started.  The total distance she walked would be 20m, and her displacement would be zero !

A 10 g bullet is fired into, and embeds itself in, a 2 kg block attached to a spring with a force constant of 19.6 n/m and whose
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

x=0.478\ m is the compression in the spring

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of the bullet, m=10\ g=0.01\ kg
  • mass of block, M=2\ kg
  • stiffness constant of the spring, k=19.6\ N.m^{-1}
  • initial velocity of the spring just before it hits the block, u=300\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Now since the bullet-mass gets embed into the block, we apply the conservation of momentum as:</u>

m.u=(M+m).v

0.01\times 300=(2+0.01)\times v

v=1.4925\ m.s^{-1}

Now this kinetic energy of the combined mass gets converted into potential energy of the spring.

\rm Kinetic\ energy=Spring\ potential\ energy

\frac{1}{2} (M+m).v^2=\frac{1}{2} k.x^2

\frac{1}{2} \times (2+0.01)\times 1.4925^2=\frac{1}{2} \times 19.6\times x^2

x=0.478\ m is the compression in the spring

An ideal gas Carnot cycle with air in a piston cylinder has a high temperature of 1200 K and a heat rejection at 400 K. During t
lana [24]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity is q_{L}=126.12kJ/kg

The efficiency of the temperature is n_{TH}=0.67

Explanation:

The p-v diagram illustration is in the attachment

T_{H} means high temperature

T_{L} means low temperature

The energy equation :

q_{h} = R* T_{h} in(V_{2}/V_{1})

   =0.287 * 1200 ln(3)

   =0.287*1318.33

   =378.36kJ/kg

The specific heat capacity:

q_{L}=q_{h}*(T_{L}/T_{H})

q_{L}=378.36 * (400/1200)

q_{L}=378.36 * 0.333

q_{L}=126.12kJ/kg

The efficiency of the temperature will be:

n_{TH}=1 - (T_{L}/T_{H})

n_{TH}=1-(400/1200)

n_{TH}=1-0.333

n_{TH}=0.67

How does the balloon react to the cloth item?
almond37 [142]

Answer: When rubbing a balloon with a wool cloth, it puts negative charges on the balloon. Negative charges attract to positive charges. If a balloon is not rubbed with the wool cloth, it has an equal amount of negative to positive charges, so it will attract to a rubbed balloon.
