Answer:
d) Both a and b are correct
Explanation:
Displacement: It is defined as the distance between initial and final position during motion.
Distance: It is defined as the total path length traveled by object
Or
It is the distance of one place from other place.
Student said that the displacement between my dorm and the lecture hall is 1km.
It is not displacement .It is distance or we say path length.
Therefore, he is using incorrect physical quantity for the information provided.
He should have called distance 1 km or path length 1 km.
Option d is true.
#3). Your drawing in the lower right corner is correct. You're headed down the right road, but ran out of gas and just stopped.
Radius of the circle = 1.5 km
Circumference of the whole circle = (2·π·radius) = 9.42 km
Distance = 3/4 of the way around it = 7.07 km .
Displacement = the straight line from the West point to the North point. The straight-line length is 2.12 km; the straight-line direction from start to finish is Northeast (45°). I'll let you figure out why these numbers.
#4). What if you walk 1 mile East and then 1 mile West ? You got a good workout, and you're back home where you started ! Your distance is 2 miles, and your displacement is zero.
The whale had a good workout too. She swam (6.9 + 1.8 + 3.7) = 12.4 km. She's sweating and tired. Her total distance during that workout is 12.4 km.
Her displacement is the line from start-point to end-point. How she got there doesn't matter, so swimming 1 km East and then swimming 1 km West cancel out, and have no effect on the displacement.
(6.9E + 1.8W + 3.7E) = (10.6 E) + (1.8 W) . . . That adds up to 8.8 East ! That's where she ends up. That's her displacement ... 8.8 km East of where she started. Since we're only talking about displacement, we don't care HOW she got there. She might have been swimming big 20-km circles all day. We don't know. All we know is that she ended up 8.8 km East of where she started.
An earthworm moves by using two different sets of muscles. 2. FISHES :- Fish swim by flexing their bodies and tail back and forth. Fish stretch or expand their muscles on one side of their body, while relaxing the muscles on the other side.
Answer:
V1 = ____0.3______ m/s, V2 = ____-0.3______ m/s,
p1 = ____0.015______ kg m/s, p2 = ___-0.015_______ kg m/s,
ptotal = _0___________ kg m/s
Explanation:
Taking the marble ball that moves from right to left as Marble 1 and the one that moves from left to right as Marble 2. We take direction from left to right as negative and from right to left as positive. Therefore, velocity of marble 1 will be +0.3 m/s while velocity of marble 2 will be -0.3 m/s. The mass of marble 1, m2 0.05 Kg and same to marble 2, m2=0.05 Kg
Momentum is product of mass and velocity hence using p to represent momentum
P1=0.05*0.3=0.015 Kg m/s
P2=0.05*-0.3=-0.015 Kg m/s
V1=0.3 m/s, V2=-0.3 m/s
The total momentum before collision will be the sum of P1 and P2 hence 0.015 Kg m/s+-0.015 Kg m/s=0
Ptotal=0 Kg m/s
