A circular test track for cars has a circumference of 2.7km . A car travels around the track from the southernmost point to the

northernmost point. What distance does the car travel? (answer 1.35km). Part B !!!!!!!What is the car's displacement from its original position?,

This problem is about the difference between distance and displacement.
The distance is how many kilometers has the car covered, the displacement is how far from the original point is the car now, and does not depend on the path followed, but it is the shortest path that connects two points.

a) In this part, they ask you for the distance. From the southernmost to the northernmost point of the circumference, the car has traveled half of the circumference, therefore:
distance = circumference ÷ 2 = 2.7km ÷ 2 = 1.35km

b) In this part, you are asked for the displacement, which in this case is the diameter of the circumference:
displacement = diameter = circumference ÷ π = 2.7km ÷ 3.14 = 0.86km = 860m

The cover of a soccer ball consists of interlocking regular pentagons and regular hexagons. Why can't they be interlocked in thi
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer: Because of gaps between the vertex of Pentagons and hexagon.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pentagon has 5 sides and 5 vertex angles. While hexagon has 6 sides and six vertex angles

The sum of the angle of polygon is equal to ( n - 2 )180

Sum of the angle of a Pentagon will be: (5 - 2)×180 = 540

Each vertex angle of a Pentagon = 540/5 = 108

Sum of the angle of hexagon will be: (6 - 2)×180 = 720

Each vertex angle of a hexagon =

720/6 = 120

To interlock Pentagon and hexagon, the sum of the combination of vertex angles of both must be equal to 360 ( sum of the angles at a point = 360)

Since there is no number of combinations that can be equal to 360, there will surely be a gap.
