Answer:

Distance = 30m

Displacement = 6m W

Explanation:

Given the following:

Movement 1 = 18m W

Movement 2 = 12m E

Diatance is a scalar quantity with only magnitude and no direction. That is, in Calculating the distance moved by the locomotive, the direction of travel or movement of the object is not considered. It only measures the total amount of movement made during the Time of motion.

Therefore, total distance traveled equals :

Movement 1 + movement 2

18m + 12m = 30m

B) Displacement also measures the movement made by an object. However, Displacement is a vector quantity and therefore, considers both magnitude and direction of travel of the object. Therefore, it measures the overall change in position of the object from its starting position.

Therefore, Displacement of the locomotive equals:

18m W - 12m E = 6m E

How do i calculate acceleration? pls help! thanks :)
LenKa [72]

The acceleration is 2 mph/min

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is the rate of change of velocity. It is defined as follows:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v

For the car in this problem, we have (taking North as positive direction):

u = 25 mph

v = 35 mph

t = 5 min

Substituting into the equation, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{35 mph-25mph}{5min}=2 mph/min

A skier of mass 103 kg comes down a slopeof constant angle 32◦with the horizontal.What is the force on the skier parallel tothe
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

534.9 N

Explanation:

The skier weight is his mass times gravitational acceleration g

W = mg = 103 * 9.8 = 1009.4 N

This weight can be divided into 2 components, one perpendicular and the other parallel to the 32-degree slope. The parallel component would equal to

Wsin(32^0) = 1009.4sin(32^0) = 534.9 N
