If you travel 30 miles somewhere and then come home again your distance is 60 miles. Your displacement is 0 because it is the ending position minus the beginning position, which are the same place (home). In other words, displacement is a vector and distance is a scalar.
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy = mgh = (5)(9.81)(7) = 343.35J.
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram for each disc.
Disc A has three forces acting on it: 86.5 N up, T₁ down, and Wa down.
∑F = ma
86.5 N − T₁ − Wa = 0
Wa = 86.5 N − T₁
ma × 9.8 m/s² = 86.5 N − 55.6 N
ma = 3.2 kg
Disc B has three forces acting on it: T₁ up, T₂ down, and Wb down.
∑F = ma
T₁ − T₂ − Wb = 0
Wb = T₁ − T₂
mb × 9.8 m/s² = 55.6 N − 36.5 N
mb = 1.9 kg
Disc C has three forces acting on it: T₂ up, T₃ down, and Wc down.
∑F = ma
T₂ − T₃ − Wc = 0
Wc = T₂ − T₃
mc × 9.8 m/s² = 36.5 N − 9.6 N
mc = 2.7 kg
Disc D has two forces acting on it: T₃ up and Wd down.
∑F = ma
T₃ − Wd = 0
Wd = T₃
md × 9.8 m/s² = 9.6 N
md = 0.98 kg
Answer: D
Explanation:
When an object falls gravity is pulling down on it and is picking up speed, but as it gains speed air resistance becomes a faster. Air resistance increases with speed. And that force keeps it from accelerating eventually the object will pick up speed such that the force due to air resistance will keep it from getting any more speed at that point force due to air resistance is equal to its weight (mg) and the net force is equal to zero so it won’t accelerate any more at that point it is said to be moving in terminal velocity.
When an object has reached terminal velocity, it will have a constant velocity
Explanation:
<em>The height of the pendulum is measured from the lowest point it reaches (point 3). </em>
At 1, the kinetic energy of the pendulum is zero (because it is not moving), and it has maximum potential energy.
At 2, the pendulum has both kinetic and potential energy, and how much of each it has depends on its height—smaller the height greater the kinetic energy and lower the potential energy.
At 3, the height is zero; therefore, the pendulum has no potential energy, and has maximum kinetic energy.
At 4, the pendulum again gains potential energy as it climbs back up, Again how much of each forms of energy it has depends on its height.
At 5, the maximum height is reached again; therefore, the pendulum has maximum potential energy and no kinetic energy.
Hope this helps :)
