A student leaves a sidewalk corner walks 3.0 blocks north then walks 3.0 blocks west. what is the students displacement from the starting position

The students displacement is 3·√3 blocks, 45° North of West

Explanation:

From the question, we have;

The distance North in which the student walks = 3.0 blocks

The next walking distance West by the student = 3.0 blocks

The displacement of the student = The shortest distance between the student start and final point

By representing the motion of the student in vector format, we have;

Therefore the magnitude of d is given as follows;

The direction of the student = tan⁻¹(3/3) = 45° West of North

The students displacement = 3·√3 blocks, 45° North of West.

measuring things 1 litre of water

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
