Distance is 50 km

Displacement is 10 km

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Distance toward south, x = 25 km

Distance towards west, y = 10 km

Distance towards north, z = 15 km

(a) Total distance, D = ?

Total distance, D = x + y + z

                       D = 25 + 10 + 15

                       D = 50km

(b) Displacement, d = ?

Displacement = final position - initial position

                      = 10 - 0 km

                      = 10km

USPshnik [31]

The answer is weak.  The interaction of nature that will depend on the distance through the way it acts and involved in beta decay is the weak interaction or the weak force. This interaction is the responsible for radioactive decay which also plays a significant role in nuclear fission.

57. Example of the law of force and acceleration
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Newton's Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed) happens when a force acts on a mass (object). Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass. Your leg muscles pushing pushing on the pedals of your bicycle is the force.
