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.

What is the period of a wave that has a frequency of 300 hz?

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

T = 0.003 s

(Period is written as T)

Explanation:

Period = time it takes for one wave to pass (measured in seconds)

frequency = number of cycles that occur in 1 second

(measured in Hz / hertz / 1 second)

Period : T

frequency : f

So, if we know that the frequency of a wave is 300 Hz, we can find the period of the wave from the relation between frequency and period

T = $\frac{1}{f}$ f = $\frac{1}{T}$

to find the period (T) of this wave, we need to plug in the frequency (f) of 300

T = $\frac{1}{300}$

T = 0.00333333333

So, the period of a wave that has a frequency of 300 Hz is 0.003 s

[the period/T of this wave is 0.003 s]

Does Ap Physics have anything to do with probablity?

padilas [110]

So I'm a junior. I am currently taking AP Calc BC and AP Physics B.

As of now, I'm not sure if I should take AP Probability and Statistics or Differential Equations/Calc III next year. Also, I'm debating between taking AP Physics C or AP Chemistry.

Which ones do you think would look better on a transcript? I heard that Diffeq/CalcIII is harder than AP ProbStat, but ProbStat is an AP course which will be weighted heavier. Also, should I take Physics C since i've taken Physics B this year already?

Initially a car accelerates at 2 m/s2 for x seconds. The car then travels at a velocity of -6 m/s for x seconds. If the car disp

Luda [366]

Answer:

The time travel is

t=8 s

Explanation:

$a= 2 \frac{m}{s^{2} } \\v=-6 \frac{m}{s} \\x=16m$

$x_{f}=x_{o}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2} *a*t^{2}$

$x_{f}=0-6*t+\frac{1}{2} *2*t^{2}$

$t^{2}-6*t-16=0\\ using :\\\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4*c*a } }{2} \\\frac{-(-6)+/-\sqrt{(-6)^{2}-4*(-16)*(1) } }{2}=\frac{3}{2} +/- \frac{10}{2} \\t_{1} = 2s \\t_{2} = 8s$
