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>

Of the following systems, which contains the most heat?
densk [106]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Given systems are state of matter and do not contain any heat instead Heat is required to change Phase or raise the temperature of the particular system.

For example 600 kg of ice at 0^{\circ}C

Heat Required to convert it to water at 0^{\circ}C is

Q=m\times L

Where L=latent heat of Fusion =334 J/gm

Q=600\times 334\times 1000

Q=200.4 MJ

An object is dropped from a 45 m high building. At the same time, another object is thrown
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

-92.33 (meaning the objects will not meet above the ground).

Explanation:

We can use the kinematic equation <em>displacement = initial velocity*time + 1/2*acceleration*time^2.</em>

We can plug in the known values of the 2 objects into the equation, where t is the time and x is the displacement:

x = 0*t + 1/2*(-9.8)*t^2+45

x = 8.5*t + 1/2*(-9.8)*t^2

We need to first solve for t to solve for x. Since both equations are equal to x, we can set them equal to each other and solve for t:

0*t + 1/2*(-9.8)*t^2+45 = 8.5*t + 1/2*(-9.8)*t^2

-4.9*t^2 +45 = 8.5*t + -4.9*t^2

45 = 8.5*t

t = 45/8.5 ≈5.294

Now, we can plug t as 5.294 into any of the equations above to solve for x:

x = 0*5.294 + 1/2*-9.8*(5.294)^2+45 ≈ -92.33

That means, the objects will not meet above the ground.

3x/y=6g/b solve for x
lora16 [44]
So looking at the problem, you are going to want to start by finding a common denominator (1) in this case: yb, and combining like terms (2). You are then going to want to multiply both sides by (yb) as the reciprocal to the fractions (3).
1)  3x    6g
     ---- = ---
     y       b

2)  3xb    6gy
     ------ = -----   
     yb       yb

3)       3xb    6gy
  (yb) ------ = -----  
          yb       yb
which becomes: 3xb = 6gy

So after this, things become much more simple, as all you have to do is isolate the (x), which can be done by dividing the entire equation by (3b).

3xb   6gy
----- = -----
3b      3b

where you will then find your answer of:
      2gy
x = -----       (simplified by the GCM of 3)
       b
