What is the difference between total distance covered vs. total displacement of the rube goldberg

Physics

nirvana33 [79]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The deer traveled 1300m + 500m + 300m, for a total distance. The exact same motion, distance and displacement have significantly different values. It tells you the rate at which an object's displacement, or position, changes.

n an object. one force is 3N to the east and the other force is 9n to the west. what is the net force acting on the object ​
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

-6N

Explanation:

The force to the east is acting in the positive x-direction therefore it is positive. The force to the east is in the negative x-direction therefore it is negative. The net force is just the sum of the two so 3-9=-6

A spacecraft of mass 1500 kg orbits the earth at an altitude of approximately 450 km above the surface of the earth. Assuming a
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

1.28 x 10^4 N

Explanation:

m = 1500 kg, h = 450 km, radius of earth, R = 6400 km

Let the acceleration due to gravity at this height is g'

g' / g = {R / (R + h)}^2

g' / g = {6400 /  (6850)}^2

g' = 8.55 m/s^2

The force between the spacecraft and teh earth is teh weight of teh spacecraft

W = m x g' = 1500 x 8.55 = 1.28 x 10^4 N

What happens to gravity when someone jumps up?
Alla [95]

Answer:

The direct answer to the question as written is as follows: nothing happens to gravity when someone jumps up - gravity continues exerting a force on the body of that particular someone proportional to (mass of someone) x (mass of Earth) / (distance squared). What you might be asking, however, is what is the net force acting on the body of someone jumping up. At the moment of  someone jumping up there is an upward acceleration, i.e., an upward-directed force which counteracts the gravitational force - this is the net force ( a result of the jump force minus gravity). From that moment on, only gravity acts on the body. The someone moves upward gradually decelerating to the downward gravitational acceleration until they reaches the peak of the jump (zero velocity). Then, back to Earth.
