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>

Derive an expression for the gravitational potential energy of a system consisting of Earth and a brick of mass m placed at Eart
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy of a system is -3/2 (GmE)(m)/RE

Explanation:

Given

mE = Mass of Earth

RE = Radius of Earth

G = Gravitational Constant

Let p = The mass density of the earth is

p = M/(4/3πRE³)

p = 3M/4πRE³

Taking for instance,a very thin spherical shell in the earth;

Let r = radius

dr = thickness

Its volume is given by;

dV = 4πr²dr

Since mass = density* volume;

It's mass would be

dm = p * 4πr²dr

The gravitational potential at the center due would equal;

dV = -Gdm/r

Substitute (p * 4πr²dr) for dm

dV = -G(p * 4πr²dr)/r

dV = -G(p * 4πrdr)

The gravitational potential at the center of the earth would equal;

V = ∫dV

V = ∫ -G(p * 4πrdr) {RE,0}

V = -4πGp∫rdr {RE,0}

V = -4πGp (r²/2) {RE,0}

V = -4πGp{RE²/2)

V = -4Gπ * 3M/4πRE³ * RE²/2

V = -3/2 GmE/RE

The gravitational potential energy of the system of the earth and the brick at the center equals

U = Vm

U = -3/2 GmE/RE * m

U = -3/2 (GmE)(m)/RE

A bag of potato chips contains 2.00 L of air when it is sealed at sea level at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 20.0°
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The volume at mountains is 2.766 L.

Explanation:

Given that,

Volume V_{1} = 2.00\ L

Pressure P_{1}= 1.00\ atm

Pressure P_{2}= 70.0\ kPa

Temperature T_{1}= 20.0°C = 293\ K

Temperature T_{2}= 7.00°C = 280\ K

We need to calculate the volume at mountains

Using  gas law

\dfrac{PV}{T}=\ Constant

For both temperature,

\dfrac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\dfrac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{101.325\times2}{293}=\dfrac{70\times V_{2}}{280}

V_{2}=\dfrac{101.325\times2\times280}{293\times70}

V_{2}=2.766\ litre

Hence, The volume at mountains is 2.766 L.

An airplane travels horizontally at a constant velocity v. An object is dropped from the plane and one second later another obje
Delvig [45]

Answer:

the vertical distance between the two object will increase uniformly when they are dropped after a fixed interval of time

Explanation:

Since airplane is moving horizontally with constant speed v

so when object is dropped from the plane then the speed of the object will be same as that of the speed of the airplane

so we can say that two object when dropped after some interval of time then they always lie in same vertical line

now we know that they both have same acceleration in vertical line so the motion of two objects relative to each other in vertical direction is always uniform motion because they have no acceleration with respect to each other

So the vertical distance between the two object will increase uniformly when they are dropped after a fixed interval of time
