The magnitude of your displacement can be equal to the distance you covered, or it can be less than the distance you covered.  But it can never be greater than the distance you covered.

This is because displacement is a straight line, whereas distance can be a straight line, a squiggly line, a zig-zag line, a line with loops in it, a line with a bunch of back-and-forths in it, or any other kind of line.

The straight line is always the shortest path between two points.

Derive an expression for the acceleration of the car. Express your answer in terms of D and vt Determine the time at which the s
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

V(car) = V(truck) at t = Dt/2

acceleration = v(car) = D/t^2

Explanation:

acceleration = v(car) = D/t^2

Since the average velocities must be the same, the car's final velocity must be twice the trunk velocity assuming the car start with zero velocity, since acceleration remain the same throughout the journey velocities at half-time point must be equal.

if a man hits a golf ball (0.2 kg) which accelerates at a rate of 20 m/s squared. what amount of force acted on the ball?
kkurt [141]

F = ma

We have mass = 0.2kg

and acceleration = 20 m/s^2

So..

F = (0.2)(20)

F = 4 N

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Its goal is to explore the Kupier Belt, a region in space where comets originate

Explanation:

The Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) is a telescope with abilities to see the mid-infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum.The wavelength of this instrument is 5-28 microns. The Kupier belt is a region in space beyond Neptune.MIRI was developed to enable scientists study and explore the kupier belt to observe the far most galaxies, new stars that are formed and the comets invisible from the previous telescopes.
