costa rica does not have deserts hoped this helped and have a great day:)
Work in general is given by W=F·d where F is the force vector and d is the displacement vector. The dot symbol is the dot product which is a measure of how parallel two vectors are. It can be replaced by the cosine of the angle between the two vectors and the vectors replaced by their magnitudes. If F and d are parallel then the angle is zero and the cosine is unity. So in this case work can be defined as the product of the magnitudes of the force and distance:
W=Fd
If the distance around the equator is reduced by half, then the radius is also reduced by half.
Since the acceleration due to gravity is proportional to 1/(radius²),
the acceleration changes by a factor of 1/(1/2)² = 1/(1/4) = <em>4 </em>.
The acceleration due to gravity ... and also the weight of everything on Earth ...
becomes <em>4 times what it is now</em>.
Answer:
a.Distance = 150 m
b. Displacement = 50 m
Time lapsed = 5 seconds
Explanation:
a. Distance is the change in the position of an object.
The distance covered by the car = 100 + 50
= 150 m
b. Since displacement is a vector quantity,
Displacement of the car = 100 - 50
= 50 m due east
c. Time elapsed is the time taken for the motion of the car starting from when its starts to when it stops.
Thus, the time elapsed = 4 + 1
= 5 seconds
