The displacement of the train is equal to the velocity of the train multiplied by the time of travel. In this case,the average velocity is equal to 80 km/h and the time of travel is four hours. The answer is 80 km/h *4 h or equal to 320 km in total. Answer is 320 kilometers.

Answer: The displacement is the difference in position (between the final position and the initial), so train's displacement will be the initial position subtracted of the position when the train has traveled for 4 hours.

If we define the original position as 0, then the total displacement is, if the train has a velocity of 80km/h, then in 4 hours the train travels 80*4 km= 320 km to the south. Because the train travels in one direction and never turns, the total displacement is 320km

A spring is stretched from x=0 to x=d, where x=0 is the equilibrium position of the spring. It is then compressed from x=0 to x=
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The same amount of energy is required to either stretch or compress the spring.

Explanation:

The amount of energy required to stretch or compress a spring is equal to the elastic potential energy stored by the spring:

U=\frac{1}{2}k (\Delta x)^2

where

k is the spring constant

\Delta x is the stretch/compression of the spring

In the first case, the spring is stretched from x=0 to x=d, so

\Delta x = d-0=d

and the amount of energy required is

U=\frac{1}{2}k d^2

In the second case, the spring is compressed from x=0 to x=-d, so

\Delta x = -d -0 = -d

and the amount of energy required is

U=\frac{1}{2}k (-d)^2= \frac{1}{2}kd^2

so we see that the amount of energy required is the same.

Mary was looking out of the window she saw lightening and then heard thunder a few seconds later explain why she saw lightening
alekssr [168]

Explanation:

It is based upon the fact that " The light travels faster then sound." As the speed of light is faster then the speed of sound, light travels 300,000 km per second and sound travels 1192 km per hour. That is why we observe the lightening first and hear the the sound of thunder later.

        You can do this experiment by yourself. Once you see the lightening start counting the seconds until you hear the sound of thunder.Then divide the seconds by 5, you will find out how many miles away the lightening strike was.

balandron [24]

That's true.

And I'll go ya a better one:

If the object is moving or not moving, at a constant or changing speed, in a straight or curvy line, and the forces on it do not cancel out and add up to zero, the object will accelerate.
