Which statements describe a situation with a displacement of zero? Check all that apply. traveling south for 30 miles, then turn

ing west and traveling another 30 miles riding on a Ferris wheel whose entrance and exit are the same walking around the block, starting from and ending at the same house riding on an escalator from the bottom floor to the top floor running exactly one lap around a racetrack

<span>The term "displacement" includes a change of position or change in an innate characteristic. The first option would have someone travel in an L-shape, which definitely is a change in position from the starting point. The second option of Ferris wheel with the same entrance and exit does not involve overall displacement since a person would return to the same place they began. The third option of walking around the block does not involve overall displacement since, again, the person would return to the same place they began. The fourth option of an escalator ride does involve overall displacement because a person would finish their journey in a different vertical location from where they started. The last option does not involve overall displacement because one lap around a track will return you to the same place you began.</span>

A standing wave of the third overtone is induced in a stopped pipe, 2.5 m long. The speed of sound is The frequency of the sound
NemiM [27]

Answer:

f3 = 102 Hz

Explanation:

To find the frequency of the sound produced by the pipe you use the following formula:

f_n=\frac{nv_s}{4L}

n: number of the harmonic = 3

vs: speed of sound = 340 m/s

L: length of the pipe = 2.5 m

You replace the values of n, L and vs in order to calculate the frequency:

f_{3}=\frac{(3)(340m/s)}{4(2.5m)}=102\ Hz

hence, the frequency of the third overtone is 102 Hz

A certain alarm clock ticks four times each second, with each tick representing half a period. The balance wheel consists of a t
Semenov [28]

Answer:

a. I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

b. K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

Explanation:

The inertia can be find using

a.

I = m*r^2

m = 0.95 g * \frac{1 kg}{1000g}=9.5x10^{-4} kg

r=0.54 cm * \frac{1m}{100cm} =5.4x10^{-3}m

I = 9.5x10^{-4}kg*(5.4x10^{-3}m)^2

I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

now to find the torsion constant can use knowing the period of the balance

b.

T=0.5 s

T=2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{I}{K}}

Solve to K'

K = \frac{4\pi^2* I}{T^2}=\frac{4\pi^2*2.7702 kg*m^2}{(0.5s)^2}

K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

Two objects are placed in thermal contact and are allowed to come to equilibrium in isolation. the heat capacity of object a is
Harman [31]
Given:
Ca = 3Cb                      (1)
where
Ca =  heat capacity of object A
Cb =  heat capacity f object B

Also,
Ta = 2Tb                     (2)
where
Ta = initial temperature of object A
Tb = initial temperature of object B.

Let
Tf =  final equilibrium temperature of both objects,
Ma = mass of object A,
Mb = mass of object B.

Assuming that all heat exchange occurs exclusively between the two objects, then energy balance requires that
Ma*Ca*(Ta - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb)           (3)

Substitute (1) and (2) into (3).
Ma*(3Cb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb)
3(Ma/Mb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb

Define k = Ma/Mb, the ratio f the masses.
Then
3k(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb
Tf(1+3k) = Tb(1+6k)
Tf = [(1+6k)/(1+3k)]*Tb

Answer:
T_{f} =( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k} )T_{b}= \frac{1}{2}( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k})T_{a}
where
k= \frac{M_{a}}{M_{b}}
