Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion. Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.

Every second, the Sun converts about 600 million tons of hydrogen into 596 million tons of helium. The remaining 4 million tons
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Converted to an amount of energy equal to 4 million tons times the speed of light squared. ejected into space in a solar wind.

Explanation:

The 4 million tons of mass is converted to the amount of energy that is equal to 4 million tons times the speed of light squared. This energy moves from the sun with the help of solar winds and received by the planets present in the solar system. This solar energy moves in the form of solar radiation because there is no medium for propagation so that's why we can say that the mass is converted into energy that moves in the form of radiation in discrete packets.

The block is sitting at rest on the floor. The normal force on
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Mass=0.305[kg]

Explanation:

The block is located on a surface, where no forces act on it, so it will remain at rest according to Newton's laws.

We can perform an analysis of forces on the y-axis (see the free body diagram) and in order to determine the equation to determine the mass of the body, we must remember that the value of a force influenced by gravity is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

From this equation we can clear the value of the mass

1. A car with an initial velocity of 5m/s acceaccelerates uniformly at 3 metre per second square until it reaches a velocity of
alisha [4.7K]

Explanation:

here, u = 5m/s,a = 3m/s2, v = 23m/s, t = ?, s = ?

v = u+at

23 = 5 + 3t

t = 23- 5/3 = 18/3 = 6 sec

s= ut + 1/2 at ^2

s = 5 * 6 + 1/2 * 3 * (6)^2

s = 30 + 1/2 * 3 * 36

s = 30 + 18 * 3

s= 30 + 54 = 84 m

here, u = 0, a = x, t = 5min = 300 sec, s= 5.8km = 5800m

s = ut + 1/2 at^2

5800 = 0 * 300 + 1/2 * x * (300)^2

5800 = 1/2 * x * 90000

5800= 45000 x

x = 5800/45000

x = 0.12m/sec^2

here, v = 0, t = 6sec, s = ?, a = - 9.8m/s2

s = UT + 1/2 at ^2

s = 29.4 * 3 + 1/2 * - 9.8 * (3)^2

s= 88.2 - 44.1

s= 44.1 m

s = ut + 1/2 at ^2

s = 0 * 1 + 1*2 * 9.8 * (1)^2

s = 4.9m

hope it helps you
