Distance = 400 m, Displacement = 400 m in the direction of the straight line.
Explanation:
Law of conservation of momentum states that in an isolated system when two objects collide with each other then total momentum before and after the collision is equal.
Thus, we can conclude that the law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of interacting objects does not change. This means the total momentum before a collision or explosion is equal to the to momentum after a collision or explosion.

<em>Hi there !</em>
<em />
<em>8 m ................ 1 s </em>
<em>4000 m ........ x s</em>
<em>x = 4000m×1s/8m = 500 sec = 8 min 20 sec</em>

<em>Good luck ! </em>
Hydroelectric power is considered to be an example of multiple transfers of energy because potential energy when the water is in the reservoir turns into kinetic energy making the water move to the dam and then the dam moves into the turbine turning it to electric energy.
If you travel 30 miles somewhere and then come home again your distance is 60 miles. Your displacement is 0 because it is the ending position minus the beginning position, which are the same place (home). In other words, displacement is a vector and distance is a scalar.
