Why is displacement different than distance?
Displacement is different than distance in that distance refers to how much ground an object has covered when in motion. Displacement is how far out of place the object is, or its overall change in position after being moved.
What the diffence of displacement and non-displacement pile?
A displacement pile is one which displaces soils during installation. For instance a driven pile displaces the soil as it is being driven into the ground. A non-displacement pile is one formed by some other method, perhaps a drilled shaft, or some other installation method.
Can you have zero displacement and nonzero velocity?
i will give u an illustration, consider an object projected (thrown)with some initial vertical velocity from the ground such that it traces a open downward parabolicpath, in that path the vertical displacement of the body from the point of projection to the point where it strikes the ground is equal to zero,but it have some velocity.
What is displacement of the point of a wheel initially in contact with the ground when the wheel rolls forward one-half revolution.radius of the wheel is R?
Displacement is a vector quantity. Magnitude is 2R and direction is vertically upward
What happens to the displacement velocity and acceleration of an object as it falls through the air to the ground?
Displacement: Grows with time, at an increaing rate. Velocity: Grows with time, at a constant rate. Acceleration: Greater than zero, remains constant with time.
What are four kind of Moraines?
Lateral,ground,medial,terminal.
The name the amount of ground displacement in an earthquake is called?
dip
Is a lateral considered a fumble if the defense recovers the ball?
A lateral pass that hits the ground is a fumble, and if the defense recovers, it is a turnover. If the receiver drops the ball after he catches a lateral pass, it is considered an incompletion.
In college football is the play dead if a lateral touches the ground?
Any backward pass (which is what a lateral would be) that is not caught is a fumble in both the NCAA and the NFL.
Why is displacement different than distance?
Displacement is different than distance in that distance refers to how much ground an object has covered when in motion. Displacement is how far out of place the object is, or its overall change in position after being moved.
Can you intercept a lateral in a football game?
No, you can't intercept it, you can only recover it, because lost lateral passes are ruled as fumbles. Yes, if you catch it before it hits the ground.
Why the displacement is zero when a man is pushing a wall?
This is because the wall is firmly rooted to the ground.
What is the amount of ground displacement in an earthquake?
It depends on the intensity of the earthquake and the type of slippage that caused it.
How much more ground motion is produced by an easrthquake of magnitude 7.0 than by an earthquake of magnitude 4.0?
ten times as much for each magnitude increase; thus a magnitude 7 is 1000 times more displacement than magnitude 4
What else forms on the edges of tectonic plates?
ground shaking, displacement, liquefaction, tsunamis and landslides
What is nulla bunding?
a lateral trenches dug across sloping ground to collect the soil flowing with the water.
What is the Largest cricket ground in the world?
Its MCG cricket Ground in Australia.
