If a car races around a 2.3 mile oval track 220 times, what is the displacement of the car in meters when it crosses the finish

line.
Physics
1 answer:
Wewaii [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 0 miles.

Explanation:

First let's define what the displacement is:

The displacement is defined as the difference between the final position and the initial position.

So, if for example, you start at your house, then go to a store, and then go back to your house, your total displacement will be zero, because the initial position and the final position are the same.

Then when the car reaches the final line, it will be in the same place that it started (because this is an oval track, so the finish line connects with the starting point)

Then the total displacement is 0miles.

AlladinOne [14]
Well since you can only heat your home/water with it and your home stove is less efficient than say the zero-emmisions one in gillete WY. and the distribution cost placed on top of that. you would pay more than the coal-made-electricity. plus you would burn more for the same effect. and coal decomposes in oxygen so that's not EPA condoned anymore. so the answer is. . . none. its more advantageous to just use the electricity

The electron affinity of thulium has been measured by a technique known as laser photodetachment electron spectroscopy. In this
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

ΔE = 1.031 eV

Explanation:

For this exercise let's calculate the energy of the photons using Planck's equation

          E = h f

wavelength and frequency are related

         c = λ f

         f = c /λ

let's substitute

         E = h c /λ

let's calculate

         E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/1064 10⁻⁹

         E = 1.869 10⁻¹⁹ J

let's reduce to eV

         E = 1.869 10⁻¹⁹ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)

        E = 1.168 eV

therefore the electron affinity is

         ΔE = E - 0.137

         ΔE = 1.168 - 0.137

         ΔE = 1.031 eV

A person of mass 55 kg swings on a rope length 4 m from rest (when the rope makes an angle of 30 degrees with the vertical) and
vovangra [49]

Answer:

θ = 19.66°

Explanation:

To determine the angle that the rope makes with the vertical for the two people, you first take into account the potential energy of the first person before he swings on the rope:

U=mgh

h: distance to the ground

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

m: mass of the first person = 55 kg

In the image attache below you can notice that the height h is:

h=4-4cos(30\°)=0.53m

Then, the potential energy is:

U=(55kg)(9.8m/s^2)(0.53m)=285.67J

When the first person picks up the second person (when the rope is exactly vertical), all the potential energy becomes kinetic energy. Next, when both people reaches the maximum height h' the energy must be equal to the initial potential energy of the first person:

U'=(m_1+m_2)gh'=285.67\ J

From the previous equation you can get h':

h'=\frac{285.67J}{(55kg+70kg)(9.8m/s^2)}=0.2332m

Finally, you obtain the angle between the rope at the height h,' and the vertical, by calculating the following:

h'=4-4cos(\theta)\\\\\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{4-h'}{4})=cos^{-1}(\frac{4-0.2332}{4})=19.66\°

hence, the angle between the rope and the vertical, when the two people are in the rope is 19.66°

Starting from rest, a disk rotates about its central axis with constant angular acceleration. In 8.0 s, it rotates 35 rad.
Harman [31]

Answer:

(a) 1.093 rad/s^2

(b) 4.375 rad/s

(c) 8.744 rad/s

(d)  67.845 rad

Explanation:

initial angular velocity, ωo = 0

time, t = 8s

angular displacement, θ = 35 rad

(a) Let α be the angular acceleration.

Use second equation of motion for rotational motion

\theta =\omega _{0}t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^{2}

By substituting the values

35 = 0 + 0.5 x α x 8 x 8

α = 1.093 rad/s^2

(b)  The average angular velocity is defined as the ratio of total angular displacement to the total time taken .

Average angular velocity = 35 / 8 = 4.375 rad/s

(c) Let ω be the instantaneous angular velocity at t = 8 s

Use first equation of motion for rotational motion

ω = ωo + αt

ω = 0 + 1.093 x 8 = 8.744 rad/s

(d) Let in next 5 seconds the angular displacement is θ.

\theta =\omega _{0}t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^{2}

By substituting the values

θ = 8.744 x 5 + 0.5 x 1.093 x 5 x 5

θ = 67.845 rad
