Answer:

distance or displacement

Explanation:

the answer can be displacement or displacement. if the required measure is between two points, we can call it as distance. but if we are to find the distance moved, we call it displacement. though it sounds pretty similar, they are very different. displacement is the shortest distance of movement of a body to its final point (or to the asked point) and distance is the total distance travelled by the body. and while distance is a scalar quantity, that this value shows the magnitude, displacement is a vector quantity, that this value should show both magnitude and direction.

for example if an object travels from point A to point B that is a 10 meters away and back, the distance will be 10+10 which is 20 meters. but the displacement is 0!

since not much information is given, the answer can be both distance or displacement

If a system requires 150 j of input work and produces 123 J of output work, whats its effiency
Yuki888 [10]

The effiency of a machine is

                 (output work or energy) / (input work or energy) .

For the system described in the question, that's

                 (123 J) / (150 J) = 0.82  =  82% .

Sladkaya [172]
The main difference between the model of the atom proposed by Greek philosophers and the model proposed centuries later by Dalton is that the Greek one was mainly speculative and philosophical - it wasn't based on real evidence, but on their suggestions and thoughts about the matter. On the other hand, Dalton had the means to prove his theory using viable evidence, not just speculations.

What kind of light results when the total spectrum of refracted light is recombined? violet green white red?
ElenaW [278]
Hello
The final light will be white. In fact, each color of the visible spectrum is an electromagnetic wave with its own specific frequency and wavelength. White, instead, does not have a specific frequency: it is the sum of all the different wavelengths of the visible spectrum. Therefore, when recombining the spectrum of the refracted light all the different frequencies recombine together, and their sum gives white light.
