Complete Question
A football coach walks 18 meters westward, then 12 meters
eastward, then 28 meters westward, and finally 14 meters
eastward.
a
From this motion what is the distance covered
b
What is the magnitude and direction of the displacement
Answer:
a
b
Magnitude
Direction
West
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The first distance covered westward is ![d_w_1 = 18 \ m /tex] The first distance covered eastward is [tex]d_e1 = 12 \ m /tex] The second distance covered westward is [tex]d_w_2 = 28 \ m /tex] The second distance covered eastward is [tex]d_e2 = 14 \ m /tex] Generally the distance covered is mathematically represented as [tex]D = d_w1 + d_w2 + d_e1 + d_e2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=d_w_1%20%20%3D%20%2018%20%5C%20%20m%20%2Ftex%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%20%20The%20%20first%20distance%20covered%20eastward%20is%20%5Btex%5Dd_e1%20%3D%20%2012%20%5C%20%20m%20%2Ftex%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20The%20second%20distance%20covered%20westward%20is%20%5Btex%5Dd_w_2%20%20%3D%20%2028%20%5C%20%20m%20%2Ftex%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20The%20%20second%20distance%20covered%20eastward%20is%20%5Btex%5Dd_e2%20%3D%20%2014%20%5C%20%20m%20%2Ftex%5D%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3EGenerally%20the%20distance%20covered%20is%20mathematically%20represented%20as%20%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20%5Btex%5DD%20%3D%20%20d_w1%20%2B%20d_w2%20%2B%20d_e1%20%2B%20d_e2)
=> 
=>
For the second question eastward is in the direction of the positive x-axis so it would be positive and westward is in the direction of the negative x-axis so it would be negative
The magnitude of the displacement is
=> 
=>
The direction is west
An example of the use of expansion of materials when they are heated is in
Thermometers. Thermometer is an instrument which is used to measure the
temperature of a place.
It contains mercury which expands as temperature increases. This is used
to accurately determine the temperature of an object.
The disadvantage of expansion of materials when they are heated can be
seen in roads as there is expansion of the surface as a result of heat
exposure leads to roads being rough thereby incurring more costs for
repairs.

Answer: 
Explanation:
We can solve this with the Law of Universal Gravitation and knowing the acceleration due gravity 
of an object above the surface of the planet decreases with the distance (height) of this object from the center of the planet.
Well, according to the law of universal gravitation:
(1)
Where:
is the module of the force exerted between both bodies
is the gravitational constant
is the mass of the Earth
are the mass of each communications satellite
is the distance between the center of the Earth and the satellite
is the radius of the Earth
is the height of the satellite, measured from the Earth's surface
On the other hand, we know according to <u>Newton's 2nd law of motion:</u>
(2)
Combining (1) and (2):
(3)
Isolating :
(4)
Remembering :
(5)
Finally:
According to this equation
F = G × m₁*m₂ ÷ r²
other than the mass, the distance also affects the gravitational force between two objects (same mass or not).
Therefore the correct answer is B. The distance between the objects
Future note* use formulas to help you figure these sort of questions out. (if they have a formula to begin with).
