Answer from: james828

a). The truck's distance covered for the trip is

(60) + (60 - 15) = 105 kilometers .

b). Its displacement for the whole trip is the distance
and direction from the start-point to the end-point.

15 kilometers east .

quantum mechanics or quantum physics is physics of very small objects (particles) and physical entities.

quantum physics has some parallels to our macro world and some pretty unique ideas which theoretically and mathematically proven to be true even though we will never be able to access them because of our size.

there are many types of particles: subatomic, elementary etc.

subatomic means they are smaller than atom, elementary means they are at the very basis of everything.

subatomic particles are for eg. protons, neutrons but not electrons.

elementary particles are categorised into 3 groups by what they do.

these 3 groups are quarks, leptons and bosons.

light for example is a particle more precisely a photon a part of leptons.

proton (subatomic particle) is made out of 2 up quarks and 1 down quark each of these has a fractional charge like $\frac{1}{3}$ . (i crazy)

most famous scientist who contributed to this physics are:

max planckalbert einsteinerwin schrödingermany

the topic itself us understand a lot and will probably be vastly used in the future (quantum computers, understanding the big bang,

we also must not forget quantum effects like:

superposition (where 1 thing can be this and that at the same time),entanglement (where two particles are seemingly connected by some sort of unknown (or known) force, energy, matter (i know all that can be the same at least it was at the beginning)

and there is more. but probably too much for this answer to be consistent due to my average understanding of this topic.

hope this you understand quantum mechanics a little more. i'm not an expert in the topic (so don't be like wth if you are an expert) but i'm very interested in it.

anyways quantum physics is a very hard topic (harder than physics (perhaps)) therefore searching for every information there is about it and learning it is unfortunately impossible (you can only specialise into 1 - 3 things or more (perhaps

have fun and i wish you luck!

Answer from: Quest

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

comparing both the equations

change in value of y -axis = change in position

change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

Athin plate moves between two parallel, horizontal, stationary flat surfaces at a constant velocity of v = 7.5 m/s. the two stationary surfaces are spaced 4 cm apart, and the medium between them is filled with oil whose viscosity is 0.9 n·s/m2. the part of the plate immersed in oil at any given time is 2 m long and 0.5 m wide. if the plate moves through the mid-plane between the surfaces, determine the force required to maintain this motion. what would your response be if the plate was 1 cm from the bottom surface (h2) and 3 cm from the top surface (h1)? if the plate moves through the mid-plane between the surfaces, the force required to maintain the motion will be n. if the plate was 1 cm from the bottom surface (h2) and 3 cm from the top (h1) surface, the force required to maintain the motion would be n.
