Since the runner only moved in one direction, his distance and placement are the same.

The distanced travelled/his displacement is 12 metres. :)

Answer:

Distance = Displacement = 12 meters

Explanation:

Total distance covered by a person is equal to the total path covered while the displacement of a person is equal to the shortest path covered.

Here, a runner starts at position 0, and moves in one direction to position 12m.

Here, the distance covered and the displacement both are same i.e. 12 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which of the statements below describes how a motor operates
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

need Read this excerpt from "Not a Dove, But No Longer a Hawk."

Despite these misgivings, I do not see how we can do anything but continue to prosecute the war. We can and should limit the violence and the suffering being inflicted on the civilians as much as possible, but for whatever reasons, successive Administrations in Washington have carried the commitment in Vietnam to the point where it would be very difficult to prevent any precipitate retreat from degenerating into a rout. If the United States were to disengage from Vietnam under adverse conditions, I believe that the resulting political and psychological shockwaves might undermine our entire position in Southeast Asia.

Which statement best describes the paradox in this excerpt?

The author acknowledges that civilians should not suffer, but states that the civilians must retreat.

The author suggests that the administrators in Washington are busy making policies while overlooking the need to end the war.

The author acknowledges that the violence should stop, but admits that a retreat might have dire consequences.

The author suggests that the Vietnamese people are counting on US support, though their political ideals are not democratic.
