Answer:
Your correct answer is option C. Displacement is equal to the total distance traveled by an object in motion.
Explanation:
This is something that is definitely not a displacement.
<span>Speed is the distance traveled divided by the time it took to travel this distance. Velocity is the change in position divided by the time of travel. Velocity only depends on the starting and ending point but the speed depends on the path. Speed is a scalar quantity (the distance per time ratio) and velocity is a vector quantuty, because it is defined also with its direction.</span>
-- The string is 1 m long. That's the radius of the circle that the mass is
traveling in. The circumference of the circle is (π) x (2R) = 2π meters .
-- The speed of the mass is (2π meters) / (0.25 sec) = 8π m/s .
-- Centripetal acceleration is V²/R = (8π m/s)² / (1 m) = 64π^2 m/s²
-- Force = (mass) x (acceleration) = (1kg) x (64π^2 m/s²) =
64π^2 kg-m/s² = 64π^2 N = about <span>631.7 N .
</span>That's it. It takes roughly a 142-pound pull on the string to keep
1 kilogram revolving at a 1-meter radius 4 times a second !<span>
</span>If you eased up on the string, the kilogram could keep revolving
in the same circle, but not as fast.
You also need to be very careful with this experiment, and use a string
that can hold up to a couple hundred pounds of tension without snapping.
If you've got that thing spinning at 4 times per second and the string breaks,
you've suddenly got a wild kilogram flying away from the circle in a straight
line, at 8π meters per second ... about 56 miles per hour ! This could definitely
be hazardous to the health of anybody who's been watching you and wondering
what you're doing.
