A student on her way to school walks eastward in a straight line 20.0 meters towards the bus stop, but realizes she dropped her

physics notebook along the way and turns around to retrace her steps. She has traveled back 18.0 meters before finding it and then runs the remaining 45.0 meters due east to the bus stop. What is her total displacement? What is her total distance traveled?

Answer:

Total displacement will be 47 meter

Total distance will be 83 meters

Explanation:

We have given that first the student go eastward towards bus stop 20 meters

But he realizes that she dropped his physics notebook and so h=she turns back along the same way up to 18 meters

So displacement = 20-18 = 2 meters

And he travel 45 meters in east along the bus stop so total displacement = 45+2 = 47 meters

Total distance traveled by the student = 20+18+45 = 83 meters

Why is energy required to get an object moving?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

this is what popped up when I searched it up:In physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.

Answer: C. Metal transfers heat away from the skin by conduction, creating the sensation of coolness.

Explanation: The skin releases heat into the metal bowl since there is a difference in temperature between the two objects. So heat is taken away from the hand abd transfers into the metal bowl by conduction creating a cooler sensation.
