Explanation:

Displacement is the straight line distance from the starting position to the final position.

Person X walks halfway around circle.  So her displacement is 100 m.

Person Y walks 3/4 of the way around.  So his displacement is 50√2 m ≈ 70.7 m.

Person Z walks completely around the circle, so their displacement is 0 m.

Therefore:

Z < Y < X

What happens to a satellite that slows down?
Bess [88]

Two things can happen to <u>old satellites</u>: For the closer satellites, engineers will use its last bit of fuel to slow it down so it will fall out of orbit and burn up in the atmosphere. Further satellites are instead sent even farther away from Earth.

You place a light bulb 8 cm in front of a concave mirror. You then move a sheet of paper back and forth in front of the mirror.
Alika [10]

sorry - late reply...just stumbled across tis...hope u can still use it :)


By the mirror equation: 1/di + 1/do = 1/f

<span>
</span>

<span>where di = distance to image = +12cm (+ for real image)</span>


and do = distance to object = +8cm


Substitute and solve for f, the focal length

<span><span>
1/12 + 1/8 = 1/f
</span><span>
1/f = (8 + 12) / 12 * 8 = 20/96
</span><span>
so f = 96/20 = 4.8 cm</span>

A block of mass 14.9 kg is pulled to the right by an applied force of 39.4 N. If it moves with constant velocity, how much frict
lakkis [162]

The frictional force is 39.4 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying Newton's 2nd law of motion: in fact, the net force acting on the block is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration. So we can write

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

Here we know that the box is moving with constant velocity, so its acceleration is zero:

a=0

This means that the net force is also zero:

\sum F=0

The net force on the block is given by the applied force, forward, and the frictional force, backward:

\sum F = F_a-F_f=0

where

F_a=39.4 N is the applied force

F_f is the frictional force

Therefore, solving for F_f,

F_f=F_a=39.4 N
