Answer:
2km
Explanation:
Given data
We are told that the direction traveled are
North>>>East>>>South
Hence the displacement is defined as the distance away from the initial position is
Initial position =18km
FInal position = 16km
The displacement = 18-16= 2km
Hence the displacement is 2km
Answer:
They experience the same magnitude impulse
Explanation:
We have a ping-pong ball colliding with a stationary bowling ball. According to the law of conservation of momentum, we have that the total momentum before and after the collision must be conserved:
where is the initial momentum of the ping-poll ball
is the initial momentum of the bowling ball (which is zero, since the ball is stationary)
is the final momentum of the ping-poll ball
is the final momentum of the bowling ball
We can re-arrange the equation as follows or
which means (1) so the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ping-pong ball is equal to the magnitude of the change in momentum of the bowling ball.
However, we also know that the magnitude of the impulse on an object is equal to the change of momentum of the object:
(2) therefore, (1)+(2) tells us that the ping-pong ball and the bowling ball experiences the same magnitude impulse:
Answer:
Hence, work done= 287.54 J
Explanation:
Given data:
angle of ramp with the ground θ =20°
force applied = 76 N
work done on the crate to slide down 4 m down the ramp
W= F×d cosθ ( only the cos component of the force will slide the crate down)
W= 76×4×cos20= 287.54 J
The phenomenon which is responsible for this effect is called diffraction.
Diffraction is the ability of a wave to propagate when it meets an obstacle or a slit. When the wave encounters the obstacle or the slit, it 'bends' around it and it continues propagate beyond it. A classical example of this phenomenon is when a sound wave propagates through a wall where there is a small aperture (as in the example of this problem)
