Answer:
distance traveled is 15 mi
displacement is 5 mi
Explanation:
Distance takes time into account and adds up all the tiny displacements during the entire period of the trip.
Displacement ignores time and looks only at the change in position from the starting point to the ending point.
Answer:
An object responds to a force by tending to move in the direction of that force
Explanation:
The inertia of a body can be defined with the help of Newton's second law
F = m a
Where F is the applied force, a is the acceleration of the body and m is the mass
the force and the acceleration are vectors that point in the same direction and m is a scalar constant that relates the two vectors, this scalar constant is called masses and it measures the resistance of the bodies to the change of motion.
From the previous statement we see that the statement that best describes inertia is:
An object responds to force by tending to move in the direction of the force.
K.E = 1/2*m*v^2 = 1/2(500)(3)^2 = 2250 J
m*g*h = 500(9.8)(30) = 147000 J
2250 + 147000 = 149250
Answer: 1.76 Nm
Explanation:
If the force pulls horizontally, this means that the force is tangent to the disk at any point of the string unwinding process, so the distance d is irrelevant.
In this case, the torque is directly given by the product of the force times the distance perpendicular to the center of the disk, which is just the radius, as follows:
τ = F * r = 16 N. (0.11) m = 1.76 Nm
