Answer:

• riding on a Ferris wheel whose entrance and exit are the same

• walking around the block, starting from and ending at the same house

• running exactly one lap around a racetrack

Explanation:

Displacement simply means the.change in position of an object. In a situation whereby the initial and final position are thesame, the displacement will be zero.

The statements that describe a situation with a displacement of zero include:

• riding on a Ferris wheel whose entrance and exit are the same

• walking around the block, starting from and ending at the same house

• running exactly one lap around a racetrack

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Time of flight  A is greatest

Explanation:

Let u₁ , u₂, u₃ be their initial velocity and θ₁ , θ₂ and θ₃ be their angle of projection. They all achieve a common highest height of H.

So

H = u₁² sin²θ₁ /2g

H = u₂² sin²θ₂ /2g

H = u₃² sin²θ₃ /2g

On the basis of these equation we can write

u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂=u₃ sinθ₃

For maximum range we can write

D = u₁² sin2θ₁ /g

1.5 D = u₂² sin2θ₂ / g

2 D =u₃² sin2θ₃ / g

1.5 D / D = u₂² sin2θ₂ /u₁² sin2θ₁

1.5 = u₂ cosθ₂ /u₁ cosθ₁      ( since , u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂ )

u₂ cosθ₂ >u₁ cosθ₁

u₂ sinθ₂ < u₁ sinθ₁

2u₂ sinθ₂ / g < 2u₁ sinθ₁ /g

Time of flight B < Time of flight  A

Similarly we can prove

Time of flight C < Time of flight B

Hence Time of flight  A is greatest .

Which statement about the volume and pressure of a gas is the most accurate? Volume of a gas is equal to pressure of that gas in
Julli [10]

Answer: Volume of a gas is inversely proportional to pressure of that gas in any container.

Explanation:

Hi, according to Boyle's Gas law, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure of that gas, at a constant temperature.

The expression is:

P1.V1= P2.V2

V= 1/P

PV = k  

Where:

P = pressure of a gas

V = volume of a gas

k = constant

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

If an electromagnetic wave has components Ey = E0 sin(kx - ωt) and Bz = B0 sin(kx - ωt), in what direction is it traveling?
fomenos

Answer:

Its traveling in the +x direction

Explanation:

The E-field is in the +y-direction, and the B-field is in the +z-direction, so it must be moving along the +x-direction, since the E-field, B-field and the direction of moving are all at right angles to each other.

How does the input distance of a single fixed pulley compare to the out- put distance?
ololo11 [35]

A pulley is another sort of basic machine in the lever family. We may have utilized a pulley to lift things, for example, a banner on a flagpole.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The point in a fixed pulley resembles the support of a lever. The remainder of the pulley behaves like the fixed arm of a first-class lever, since it rotates around a point. The distance from the fulcrum is the equivalent on the two sides of a fixed pulley. A fixed pulley has a mechanical advantage of one. Hence, a fixed pulley doesn't increase the force.

It essentially alters the direction of the force. A moveable pulley or a mix of pulleys can deliver a mechanical advantage of more than one. Moveable pulleys are appended to the item being moved. Fixed and moveable pulleys can be consolidated into a solitary unit to create a greater mechanical advantage.

To cross the river a swimmer chooses the direction minimizing the amount of time spent in the water. The swimmer swims at a cons
Lynna [10]

Answer:

304 meters downstream

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The speed of the swimmer = 2.00 m/s

The width of the river = 73.0 m

The speed of the river = 8.00 m/s

Therefore;

The direction of the swimmer's resultant velocity = tan⁻¹(8/2) ≈ 75.96° downstream

The distance downstream the swimmer will reach the opposite shore = 4 × 73 = 304 m downstream

The distance downstream the swimmer will reach the opposite shore = 304 m downstream
