An ant travels 6cm from A to B and then 8 cm at right angles to AB What is the distance traveled and displacement?
This is a question on plane geometry and involves Pythagorastheorem. The ant finishes at a point which we will call point C. You have created a right angle triangle. As we know the length of two of the sides we can calculate the third with the theorem. The theorem is "the square on the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is equal to the sum of the square on the other two sides". That may sound complex but it is not, work it out like this.
One side of the triangle is 6cm so you square this number (multiply it by itself 6 x 6) = 36.
The other side is 8cm so you do the same (8 x 8) = 64. Then add the two together.
36 + 64 = 100. You then need to find the square root of this number. In this case it is 10.
So the distance traveled is 6 + 8 = 14cm and the displacement from the original point is 10cm

Why can two different angles lead to the same range?
Two different angles can lead to the same range because the same horizontal distance can be covered by projectiles launched at different launch angles. The range of a projectile is influenced by both its initial velocity and the launch angle. When two different launch angles result in the same horizontal distance traveled, it means that despite the difference in trajectory, the vertical and horizontal components of the motion combine in such a way that the projectile lands at the same distance.
In a transverse wave in what direction are the vibration relative to the direction of wave travel?
In a transverse wave the particle displacement is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (at right angles). In a longitudinal wave the particle displacement is parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
How does the medium vibrate in a transverse wave with twice the force of the energy provided at right angles to the direction the wave travels parallel to the direction the wave travels with half the?
If the medium vibrates in a transverse wave with twice the force at right angles to the direction the wave travels, it means the amplitude of the wave is doubled in that direction. If the wave also travels parallel to the direction it moves with half the energy, it means that the wave carries less energy forward because some of the energy is directed towards vibrating the medium at right angles.
What wave in which the particles of the medium move at right angles to direction in which the wave travels is called a?
A transverse wave.
Dimension of Angular Displacement?
Angular displacement is measured in angles, usually degrees or radians. Especially when the unit radian is used, this unit is usually considered to be adimensional, since the radian is defined by the division (ratio) of two lengths: the length of an arc divided by the radius.
A body travels a distance of 15m from A to B and then moves a distance of 20m at right angles to AB .Calculate the total distance traveled and the dispalecement?
Total distance travelled = 20m + 15m = 35m Total displacement travelled=20m - 15m =5m
What happens when a light ray travels at right angles into a transparent object?
When light travels at right angles into a transparent object (i.e. angle of incidence is zero), no refraction occurs.
How trigonometry is related to to daily activities?
I learned on Khan Academy that for instance 1/2base X height gives you the total displacement or Distance in a vector quantity in comparison to how fast you accelerate and the distance covered. Slope in essence is acceleration. Now for trigonometry, it is figuring out angles, and angles are important in regards to many functions. Lets talk about a cannon's projectile. For instance, i want to figure out a projectiles velocity and displacement from lets say, a 30 degree incline from the flat surface that it is on. If we have the velocity of the the projectile and angle of 30 degrees, we can figure out the distance from where that projectile was launched from, or vice versa.
What is the angles and distance?
There are a number of different angles and distances. The angles and distances are particular to the subjects that they are based off of.
Why can two different angles lead to the same range?
Two different angles can lead to the same range because the same horizontal distance can be covered by projectiles launched at different launch angles. The range of a projectile is influenced by both its initial velocity and the launch angle. When two different launch angles result in the same horizontal distance traveled, it means that despite the difference in trajectory, the vertical and horizontal components of the motion combine in such a way that the projectile lands at the same distance.
What is the displacement from Cleveland to Los Angles?
Los Angeles is about 2,350 miles West-Southwest of Cleveland.
What angles do not intersect and are coplanar?
Angles that are separated by a distance. For example, any two angles of any polygon do not intersect and they are coplanar.
In a transverse wave in what direction are the vibration relative to the direction of wave travel?
In a transverse wave the particle displacement is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (at right angles). In a longitudinal wave the particle displacement is parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
