The horizontal speed of the object 1.0 seconds later is 1) 5.0 m/s.
Explanation:
The motion of an object thrown horizontally off a cliff is a projectile motion, which follows a parabolic path that consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction
- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction
This means that the horizontal speed of an object in projectile motion does not change, and remains constant during the whole motion.
Since in this case the object has been launched with a horizontal speed of
v = 5.0 m/s
this means that this speed will remain constant during the motion, so its horizontal speed 1.0 s later is also 5.0 m/s.

You have to read this carefully enough that you don't mix up energy and forces.
Gravity is a force. If you don't believe me try jumping off a building. Which way are you going to go and why? Down because gravity attracts your mass.
So Magnetism must be a force as well. It acts in one direction, but not a specific one the way gravity acts). It also either attracts or repulses (pushes an object away)
Answer A
Explanation:
Check out the picture I drew for a minute before reading this...
B. Distance [the red line] is a scalar quantity reflecting how far an object has traveled. Displacement [the green line] is a vector quantity reflecting how far an object has moved from a point. The key difference is that distance can be any sort of path while displacement is always a vector (or a straight line) between a starting point and a finishing point. Sometimes distance and displacement are equal to one another. Sometimes you have a distance traveled, but zero displacement overall; which is what's going on in your question.
A. The distance that the racecar traveled is indeed 500m. But at the end of the lap, it is right back where it started. So overall, it has been displaced 0m.
