Answer:

11.6km

4.4km in the negative direction

Explanation:

Distance is the total length of path covered and traveled by a body.

So, for this car on a straight line;

  Total distance  = 8km + 3.6km  = 11.6km

Displacement is the distance traveled along a path and the direction it takes.

It is a vector quantity with magnitude and directional attributes.

For this journey;

 Displacement  = 8km  - 3.6km  = 4.4km in the negative direction.

A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff above the ground level with initial velocity of at an angle with the horizontal. (
Xelga [282]

Answer:

t = √2y/g

Explanation:

This is a projectile launch exercise

a) The vertical velocity in the initial instants (v_{oy} = 0) zero, so let's use the equation

     y =v_{oy} t -1/2 g t²

     y= - ½ g t²

     t = √2y/g

b) Let's use this time and the horizontal displacement equation, because the constant horizontal velocity

     x = vox t

     x = v₀ₓ √2y/g

c) Speeds before touching the ground

     vₓ = vox = constant

     v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

     v_{y} = 0 - g √2y/g

    v_{y}  = - √2gy

    tan θ = Vy / vx

    θ = tan⁻¹ (vy / vx)

    θ = tan⁻¹ (√2gy / vox)

d) The projectile is higher than the cliff because it is a horizontal launch
