Answer:

The change in her position (from beginning to end), along with the direction, is considered her displacement. This value is a measurement and a direction. The total distance along the path from her starting point to her end point is considered her distance. This value is a measurement only.

Explanation:

The distance is the total distance she walked which is 16 meters adding the 6 meters to the corner and 10 meters to her friend's apartment. Her displacement is the distance from her original starting point so you set up a triangle with side lengths of 6 and 10 and solve for the hypotenuse which gives you a displacement of 11.66 meters.

What type of fault creates huge mountains
vladimir1956 [14]

Together, normal and reverse faults are called dip-slip faults, because the movement on them occurs along the dip direction -- either down or up, respectively. Reverse faults create some of the world's highest mountain chains, including the Himalaya Mountains and the Rocky Mountains .

Help please:Calculate the mechanical energy of a bird flying at a speed of 10 m / s at an altitude of 15 m. If its mass is 150 g
Sonja [21]

Mass of the bird(m) = 150 g = 0.15 kg

Speed (v) = 10 m/s

Kinetic Energy = \frac{1}{2}m v^{2} = \frac{1}{2} 0.15 (10)^{2} = 7.5 J

Altitude (h) = 15 m

Gravitational Potential Energy = (0.15)(9.81)(15) = 22.0725 J

Mechanical Energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy = 7.5 + 22.0725

= 29.5725 J

Calvert likes to paddle around in his canoe. One day it sprung a leak and started to fill with water. Luckily, Calvert was able
kari74 [83]

When the canoe leaked, the boat sank because it has a leak. The boat must have a strong base at its bottom to enable itself to float. If this is damaged, the water can now enter due to the hole thereby increasing the velocity of water coming in.
