What does displacement describe?
Katarina [22]
<span>A vector which implies that an object has been moved or has changed its position is called displacement. Displacement is usually associated with length and direction of an imaginary straight point. It is the shortest distance from the initial point to the final point of final position (P). Displacement can also be described as the length between the final and initial point on the shortest path. It means an overall change in direction  of the object or point of a body.</span>

a 15kg television sits on a shelf at a height of 0.3 m how much gravitational potential energy is added to the television when i
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

<h2>103 Joules</h2>

Explanation:

In this problem we are required to find the potential energy possessed by the television

Given data

mass of television m = 15 kg

height  added above the ground, h= 1-0.3 = 0.7 m

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.81 m/s^2

apply the formula for potential energy we have

P.E= m*g*h

P.E = 15*9.81*0.7 = 103 Joules

5 What is the maximum speed at which a car round a curve of 25m radius on a level road if the coefficient of static friction bet
pshichka [43]

Hi there!

On a level road:

∑F = Ff (Force due to friction)

The net force is the centripetal force, so:

mv²/r = Ff

Rewrite the force due to friction:

mv²/r = μmg

Cancel out the mass:

v²/r = μg

Solve for v:

v = √rμg

v = √(25)(9.81)(0.8) = 14.01 m/s

A disc with a mass of 1 kg moves horizontally to the right with a speed of 7 m/s on a table with negligible friction when it col
Elodia [21]

Answer:

1.6 m/s

Explanation:

First you need to find the momentums of each disc by multiplying their velocities with mass.

disc 1: 7*1= 7 kg m/s

disc 2: 1*9= 9 kg m/s

Second, you need to find the total momentum of the system by adding the momentums of each sphere.

9+7= 16 kg m/s

Because momentum is conserved, this is equal to the momentum of the composite body.

Finally, to find the composite body's velocity, divide its total momentum by its mass. This is because mass*velocity=momentum

16/10=1.6

The velocity of the composite body is 1.6 m/s.

11) A sled is initially given a shove up a frictionless 35º incline. It reaches a maximum height of 2.5
Andrej [43]

Answer:

7 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem you must use the conservation of energy.

K1 +U1=K2+U2

That math speak for, initial kinetic energy plus initial potential energy equals final kinetic energy plus final potential energy.

The initial PE (potential energy) is 0 because it hasn't been raised in the air yet. The final KE (kinetic energy) is 0 because it isn't moving. This gives the following:

KE1= \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}}

PE2=mgh

K1=U2

\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} =mgh

Solve for v

v=\sqrt{2gh}

Input known values and you get 7 m/s.
