This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question:

A runner starts at point A, runs around a 1-mile track, and finishes the run back at point A. Which of the following statements is true?

A. The runner's displacement is 1 mile.

B. The runner's displacement is zero.

C. The distance the runner covered is zero.

D. The runner's speed was zero.

The answer to this question is B. The runner's displacement is zero

Explanation:

Displacement always implies a change of position; this means an object or individual moves from point A to point B, and therefore the original position is different from the final position. Additionally, in displacement, other related factors such as the total distance the body moved and the direction of movement. In the case presented, it can be concluded there was no displacement or the displacement is zero because even when the runner moved and ran two miles, he returned to the initial position, and without a change in the position, there is no displacement.

Answer:

12m

Explanation:

To obtain the answer to the question given, we must observe the characteristics of image formed by a plane mirror.

The image formed by a plane mirror have the following characteristics:

1. Laterally inverted.

2. Same distance as the object from the mirror.

3. Same height as the object.

4. Virtual.

With the above information, we can calculate the distance between the boy and his image as follow:

Initially:

Object distance (u) = 4m

Image distance (v) = 4m

The boy moved 2m away, therefore:

Object distance (u) = 2 + 4 = 6m

Image distanc(v) = 2 + 4 = 6m

The distance between the boy and his image will be the sum of his distance (u) and image distance (v) i.e (u + v)

The distance between the boy and his image = 6 + 6 = 12m

Therefore, the distance between the boy and his image is 12m.

A series L-R-C circuit consists of a 226 Ω resistor, a 27.4 mH inductor, a 11.55 µF capacitor, and an AC source of amplitude 15
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer: 363 Ω.

Explanation:

In a series AC circuit excited by a sinusoidal voltage source, the magnitude of the impedance is found to be as follows:

Z = √((R^2 )+〖(XL-XC)〗^2) (1)

In order to find the values for the inductive and capacitive reactances, as they depend on the frequency, we need first to find the voltage source frequency.

We are told that it has been set to 5.6 times the resonance frequency.

At resonance, the inductive and capacitive reactances are equal each other in magnitude, so from this relationship, we can find out the resonance frequency fo as follows:

fo  = 1/2π√LC = 286 Hz

So, we find f to be as follows:

f = 1,600 Hz

Replacing in the value of XL and Xc in (1), we can find the magnitude of the impedance Z at this frequency, as follows:

Z = 363 Ω
