The total displacement of the toy car at the given positions is 0.
The given parameters;
- <em>First displacement of the car, = 5 cm left</em>
- <em>Second displacement of the car, = 8 cm right</em>
- <em>Third displacement of the car, = 3 cm to the left</em>
The total displacement of the car is calculated as follows;
- <em>Let the </em><em>left </em><em>direction be "</em><em>negative </em><em>direction"</em>
- <em>Let the </em><em>right </em><em>direction be "</em><em>positive </em><em>direction"</em>
Thus, the total displacement of the toy car at the given positions is 0.

Explanation:
The electric field at a distance r from the charged particle is given by :
k is electrostatic constant
if r = 2 m, electric field is given by :
If r = 1 m, electric field is given by :
Dividing equation (1) and (2) we get :
So, at a point 1 m from the particle, the electric field is 4 times of the electric field at a point 2 m.
Answer:
a)
b)
Explanation:
Searching the missed information we have:
E: is the energy emitted in the plutonium decay = 8.40x10⁻¹³ J
m(⁴He): is the mass of the helium nucleus = 6.68x10⁻²⁷ kg
m(²³⁵U): is the mass of the helium U-235 nucleus = 3.92x10⁻²⁵ kg
a) We can find the velocities of the two nuclei by conservation of linear momentum and kinetic energy:
Linear momentum:
Since the plutonium nucleus is originally at rest, :
(1)
Kinetic Energy:
(2)
By entering equation (1) into (2) we have:
Solving the above equation for we have:
And by entering that value into equation (1):
The minus sign means that the helium-4 nucleus is moving in the opposite direction to the uranium-235 nucleus.
b) Now, the kinetic energy of each nucleus is:
For He-4:
For U-235:
