Displacement is a vector quantity. So, you incorporate the vector calculations when you try to determine the resultant vector. This is the shortest path from the starting point to the endpoint. If they are moving on one axis only, you use sign conventions. For motions moving to the left, use the negative sign. If it's moving to the right, then use the positive sign. Now, it the object moves 2 km to the left, and 2 km also to the right, the displacement is zero.
Displacement = 2 km - 2km = 0
Generally, the equation is:
<span>Displacement = Distance of motion to the right - Distance of motion to the left</span>
True. Since Inertia states this law, we are bound to believe greater mass = greater resistance in change of motion
Answer:
Distance, d = 112.5 meters
Explanation:
Initially, the bicyclist is at rest, u = 0
Final speed of the bicyclist, v = 30 m/s
Acceleration of the bicycle, 
Let s is the distance travelled by the bicyclist. The third equation of motion is given as :
s = 112.5 meters
So, the distance travelled by the bicyclist is 112.5 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
The velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.
<h3>What is the conservation of momentum?</h3>
The principle of the conservation of the linear momentum states that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.
Now given that;
m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
(0.1 * 15) - (0.1 * 12) = 0.1* v + (0.1 * 15)
1.5 - 1.2 = 0.1v + 1.5
0.3 - 1.5 = 0.1v
v = -1.2/0.1
v = - 12 m/s
Hence, the velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.
