Answer:

The distance of one lap on this track from the start line to the finish line is 400 meters. Two laps around the track is 800 meters, half a lap is 200 meters, and so on.

    Remember, displacement is the direction from the starting point and the length of a straight line from the starting point to the ending point. If a runner was going to run 400 meters (one lap around the track), they would start and stop at the same place on the track. Therefore, their displacement would be 0.

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf Gabi \ had \ greater \ displacement}}

Explanation:

Displacement is the change in the position of an object.

Abigail runs a complete lap around the track, which is 400 meters. Even though she ran 400 meters, she has <u>no displacement.</u> If she starts and ends at the same spot, there is no change in position.

Gabi runs a 50 meter dash in a straight line. Gabi has <u>50 meters of displacement</u>. She runs in a straight line and is 50 meters away from where she began.

While Abigail ran the farther distance, <u>Gabi had the greater displacement.</u>

A river flows with a speed of 0.600 m/s. A student first swims upriver 0.500 km, then turns around and returns to his starting p
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

a) 1111.0 seconds

b) 833.3 s

c) Because of proportions

Explanation:

a) Total time of round trip is the sum of time upriver and time downriver

t_{total}=t_{up}+t_{down}

Time upriver is calculated with the net speed of student and 0.500 km:

t_{up}=\frac{d_{istance}}{|v_{swimmer}|} ;\\v_{swimmer}=v_{relative to river}+v_{river}=-1.2+0.6=-0.6 m/s\\t_{up}=\frac{500 m}{0.6 m/s}=833.3 s

(Becareful with units 0.5 km= 500m) Similarly of downriver:

t_{down}=\frac{d_{istance}}{|v_{swimmer}|} ;\\v_{swimmer}=1.2+0.6=1.8 m/s\\t_{down}=\frac{500 m}{1.8 m/s}=277.7 s

So the sum is:

t_{total}=1111.0s

b) Still water does not affect student speed, so total time would be simply:

t_{total}=\frac{1000 m}{1.2 m/s}=833.3 s

c) For the upriver trip, student moved half the distance in half speed of the calculation in b), so it kept the same ratio and therefore, same time. So the aditional time is actually the downriver.

The magnetic field perpendicular to a single 16.7-cm-diameter circular loop of copper wire decreases uniformly from 0.750 T to z
sammy [17]

Answer:

1.24 C

Explanation:

We know that the magnitude of the induced emf, ε = -ΔΦ/Δt where Φ = magnetic flux and t = time. Now ΔΦ = Δ(AB) = AΔB where A = area of coil and change in magnetic flux = Now ΔB = 0 - 0.750 T = -0.750 T, since the magnetic field changes from 0.750 T to 0 T.

The are , A of the circular loop is πD²/4 where D = diameter of circular loop = 16.7 cm = 16.7 × 10⁻²m

So, ε = -ΔΦ/Δt = -AΔB/Δt= -πD²/4 × -0.750 T/Δt = 0.750πD²/4Δt.

Also, the induced emf ε = iR where i = current in the coil and R = resistance of wire = ρl/A where ρ = resistivity of copper wire =1.68 × 10⁻⁸ Ωm, l = length of wire = πD and A = cross-sectional area of wire = πd²/4 where d = diameter of wire = 2.25 mm = 2.25 × 10⁻³ m.

So, ε = iR = iρl/A = iρπD/πd²/4 = 4iρD/d²

So,  4iρD/d² = 0.750πD²/4Δt.

iΔt = 0.750πD²/4 ÷ 4iρD/d²

iΔt = 0.750πD²d²/16ρ.

So the charge Q = iΔt

= 0.750π(Dd)²/16ρ

= 0.750π(16.7 × 10⁻²m 2.25 × 10⁻³ m)²/16(1.68 × 10⁻⁸ Ωm)

= 123.76 × 10⁻² C

= 1.2376 C

≅ 1.24 C
