Answer: Please find the answer in the explanation
Explanation:
Under what circumstances does distance traveled equal magnitude of displacement?
When a body's motion is linear in one direction. Or a body moving in a straight line without turning back.
What is the only case in which magnitude of displacement and distance are exactly the same?
When the body is moving in a straight line with without changing direction or without turning back.
Answer:
59.4 meters
Explanation:
The correct question statement is :
A floor polisher has a rotating disk that has a 15-cm radius. The disk rotates at a constant angular velocity of 1.4 rev/s and is covered with a soft material that does the polishing. An operator holds the polisher in one place for 4.5 s, in order to buff an especially scuff ed area of the floor. How far (in meters) does a spot on the outer edge of the disk move during this time?
Solution:
We know for a circle of radius r and θ angle by an arc of length S at the center,
S=rθ
This gives
θ=S/r
also we know angular velocity
ω=θ/t where t is time
or
θ=ωt
and we know
1 revolution =2π radians
From this we have
angular velocity ω = 1.4 revolutions per sec = 1.4×2π radians /sec = 1.4×3.14×2×= 8.8 radians / sec
Putting values of ω and time t in
θ=ωt
we have
θ= 8.8 rad / sec × 4.5 sec
θ= 396 radians
We are given radius r = 15 cm = 15 ×0.01 m=0.15 m (because 1 m= 100 cm and hence, 1 cm = 0.01 m)
put this value of θ and r in
S=rθ
we have
S= 396 radians ×0.15 m=59.4 m
It’s D. An enlargement (hope this helps!)
Answer:
Explanation:
We know the frequency and the velocity, both of which have good units. All we have to do is rearrange the equation and solve for
