His total displacement from his original position is -1 m
We know that total displacement of an object from a position x to a position x', d = final position - initial position.
d = x' - x
If we assume the lad's initial position in front of her house is x = 0 m. The lad then moves towards the positive x-axis, 5 m. He then ends up at x' = 5 m. He then finally goes back 6 m.
Since displacement = final position - initial position, and his displacement is d' = -6 m (since he moves in the negative x - direction or moves back) from his initial position of x' = 5 m.
His final position, x" after moving back 6 m is gotten from
x" - x' = -6 m
x" = -6 + x'
x" = -6 + 5
x" = -1 m
Thus, his total displacement from his original position is
d = final position - initial position
d = x" - x
d = -1 m - 0 m
d = -1 m
So, his total displacement from his original position is -1 m

Answer:
A
Explanation:
Hooke's law! F(spring)=-kx
There's no tricky square law here. The spring constant doesn't change, only x (distance stretched) changes. Therefore, if distance is halved, Force will be halved.
Answer:
The force generated by a single muscle fiber can be increased by increasing the frequency of action potentials
Explanation:
The force generated by a muscle fiber is the result of the shortening of the skeletal muscle, and this force is also know as muscle tension. The larger motor units shorten along with the smaller units to produce the muscle force. The time lapsed between the beginning of the action potential in the muscle and the beginning of the contraction is the latent period. Action potential is the result of the difference electrical potential as a result of passage of an impulse along the membrane of a muscle or nerve cell.
Answer:
Explanation:
According to <u>Coulomb's Law:</u>
<em>"The electrostatic force
between two point charges
and
is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance
that separates them, and has the direction of the line that joins them".</em>
<em />
Mathematically this law is written as:
Where:
is the electrostatic force
is the Coulomb's constant
and
are the electric charges
is the separation distance between the charges
Solving:
Apply Gay-Lussac's law:
P/T = const.
P = pressure, T = temperature, the quotient of P/T must stay constant.
Initial P and T values:
P = 180kPa, T = -8.0°C = 265.15K
Final P and T values:
P = 245kPa, T = ?
Set the initial and final P/T values equal to each other and solve for the final T:
180/265.15 = 245/T
T = 361K
