Explanation:

Work is the dot product of the force and displacement vectors.

W = F · d

In other words, it is the force times the parallel component of the distance.

W = F d cos θ, where θ is the angle between the force and distance.

What does the slope of the curve on a distance vs time graph represent?

Lilit [14]

Slope of a curve Y plotted against X is mathematically given as

$slope = \frac{dy}{dx}$

now here we can see that if similarly graph is plotted against distance and time then slope is given as

$slope = \frac{dx}{dt}$

here we can say that above is ratio of small distance and very small interval of time.

so here we can say that this ratio of distance and time for very small interval of time is known as instantaneous speed of the object which is falling freely under gravity.

So here slope of the graph will represent the speed at a given instant.

What is sound wave and examples

Nezavi [6.7K]

★ « what is sound wave and examples » ★

A sound wave is the pattern of disturbance caused by the movement of energy traveling through a medium (such as air, water, or any other liquid or solid matter) as it propagates away from the source of the sound. The source is some object that causes a vibration, such as a ringing telephone, or a person's vocal chords.

If a person walks 3 m north and 5 meters east, how would you find the displacement for that person? what would the displacement

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

AC)=(AB)2+(BC)2−−−−−−−−−−−−√=42+32−−−−−−√

⇒displacement=16+9−−−−−√=25−−√=5m
