Explanation:

Displacement is a <em>difference </em>between an initial value and a final value, not factoring in any changes that happen in between. For example you let an object of a certain volume sink to the bottom of a container of water, the water level will be <em>displaced</em>, or changed, by exactly the volume of that object.

<em>Example</em>: A marble with volume of 3 cm³ is dropped into a graduated cyllinder with 10 mL of water. The water level rises to the 13 mL mark, so the <em>displacement </em>of the water by the marble is exactly 3 mL.

This doesn't just apply to a change in volume: If I move a box 3 meters along an axis in the positive direction, we say its <em>displacement</em> along that axis is 3 meters. If I moved it in the negative direction the same distance, the displacement would be -3 meters.

Answer:

Displacement is the shortest distance from your initial position to your final position. Therefore, displacement is a measurement of distance and not an "end-point."

Answer:

11.56066 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of person

v = Velocity of person = 13.4 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v' = Velocity of the person in the second

The kinetic and potential energy will balance each other at the surface

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{13.4^2}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=9.15188\ m$

Height of the cliff is 9.15188 m

Let height of the fall be h' = 2.34 m

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv'^2+mgh'=mgh\\\Rightarrow v'=\sqrt{2g(h-h')}\\\Rightarrow v'=\sqrt{2\times 9.81(9.15188-2.34)}\\\Rightarrow v'=11.56066\ m/s$

The speed of the person is 11.56066 m/s

The following graph shows the force exerted on and the displacement of object being pulled

Tomtit [17]

The work done to pull the object 7.0 m is the total area under the graph from 0.0 m to 7.0 m, determined as 245 J.

<h3>Work done by the applied force</h3>

The area under force versus displacement graph is work done.

The total work done by pulling the object 7 m, can be grouped into two areas;

First area, A1 = area of triangle from 0 m to 2.0 m
Second area, A2 = area of trapezium, from 2.0 m to 7.0 m

A1 = ¹/₂ bh

A1 = ¹/₂ x (2) x (20)

A1 = 20 J

A2 = ¹/₂(large base + small base) x height

A2 = ¹/₂[(7 - 2) + (7-3)] x 50

A2 = ¹/₂(5 + 4) x 50

A2 = 225 J

<h3>Total work done </h3>

W = A1 + A2

W = 20 J + 225 J

W = 245 J

poizon [28]

Answer:

$4.048\times 10^{-7}\ m$

Explanation:

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s$

c = Speed of light = $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

E = Energy = $4.91\times 10^{-19}\ J$

Wavelength ejected is given by

$\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{4.91\times 10^{-19}}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=4.048\times 10^{-7}\ m$

The maximum wavelength in angstroms of the radiation that will eject electrons from the metal is $4.048\times 10^{-7}\ m$
