Physics

Answer:

Distance = 30 m

Explanation:

Since the position of the bus is at zero, and distance is a scalar quantity. That is, we are only concerned about the magnitude

If Angela ran to the bus and back to where she started, the distance travelled will be:

Distance = 15 + 15 = 30 m

But her displacement will be:

Displacement = 15 - 15 = 0.

A ball is thrown horizontally at 20 m/s from the top of a cliff 50 meters high. how far from the base of the cliff does the ball
Oksanka [162]
You need to divide the motion into its component: vertical and horizontal motion.

The time taken to fall vertically from the cliff is equal to the time taken to move horizontally.

Using the vertical component, which is an accelerated motion with an initial velocity equal to zero, we can solve for t:
h = 1/2 · g · t²

t = √(2·h / g)
  = √(2·50 / 9.8)
  = 3.2 s

Horizontally, it is a constant motion:
d = v · t
   = 20 · 3.2
   = 64 m

The ball will strike the ground at a distance of 64 meters from the cliff.

According to the concept of length contraction, what happens to the length of an object as it approaches the speed of light and
lord [1]
When an object moves its length contracts in the direction of motion. The faster it moves the shorter it gets in the direction of motion.
The object in this question moves and then stops moving. So it's length first contracts and then expands to its original length when the motion stops.
The speed doesn't have to be anywhere near the speed of light. When the object moves its length contracts no matter how fast or slow it's moving.

Given that a lever has a mechanical advantage of 6.0 and is 100% efficient, if the resistance is to be lifted 2.0 inches, then h
Shalnov [3]
The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the force produced by the machine to the force applied to it. Therefore, we may calculate the applied force using:
Mechanical advantage = force by machine / force applied
6 = 2 / force applied
Force applied = 1/3

Thus, the distance that the effort must move will be 1/3 inch
