What is the displacement of the object from 12 seconds to 16 seconds

Answer:

<em>The displacement of the object is -8 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Displacement</u>

The displacement of a moving object can be calculated as the area under (or above) the graph of velocity vs time.

If the area is below the y-axis, then the displacement is negative. Otherwise is positive.

It's important to differentiate displacement from distance. Displacement takes into consideration the direction of the movement. Distance does not and it's always positive.

From the graph provided, we can see the velocity from t=12 s from t=16 s is negative, and the displacement will also be negative.

The displacement is calculated as the area of the triangle with base b=16-12= 4 seconds and height = -4 m/s, thus:

\displaystyle D = \frac{4*(-4)}{2}=-\frac{16}{2}=-8\ m

The displacement of the object is -8 m

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Plate separation of each capacitor is 101.132 °A

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the capacitance in empty space as a function of distance (square parallel plates) is:

C=\epsilon_{0}\frac{Area}{distance}

clearing for distance:

distance=\epsilon_0 \frac{Area}{Capacitance} \\\\\epsilon_0=8.8542(10)^{-12}C^2/Nm\\\\Area=3.09(10)^{-11}m^2\\Capacitance=27(10)^{-15}F\\\\Replacing\\\\distance=\frac{8.8542(10)^{-12}*3.09(10)^{-11}}{27(10)^{-15}} =1.0133(10)^{-8}m\\\\In A\\distance= 101.132 A

Verify that the SI unit of impulse is the same as the SI unit of momentum.
lys-0071 [83]

Maybe this will help you out:

Momentum is calculate by the formula:

P = mv

Where:

P = momentum

m = mass      

v = velocity

The SI unit:

mass = kg\\ velocity = \dfrac{m}{s}

So the unit of momentum would be:

kg.\dfrac{m}{s}

Impulse is defined as the change in momentum or how much force changes momentum. It can be calculate with the formula:

I = FΔt

where:

I = impulse

F = Force

Δt = change in time

The SI unit:

F = Newtons (N) or kg.\dfrac{m}{s^{2} }

t = Seconds (s)

So the unit of impulse would be derived this way:

I = FΔt

I = kg.\dfrac{m}{s^{2} } x s

or

\dfrac{kg.m.s}{s^{2}} = \dfrac{kg.m.s}{s.s}

You can then cancel out one s each from the numerator and denominator and you'll be left with:

kg.\dfrac{m}{s}

So then:

Momentum:                             Impulse

kg.\dfrac{m}{s}                                       kg.\dfrac{m}{s}
