Answer:

The magnitude of Adam's displacement is 0 m

Explanation:

Given;

Adam's distance from his home to the mall, d₁ = 1100m

then, his distance from the mall back to his home, d₂ = 1100m

Adam's displacement is given by;

Displacement = final position - initial position

Adam's displacement = d₂ - d₁

Adam's displacement = 1100 m - 1100 m = 0 m

Therefore, the magnitude of Adam's displacement is 0 m

The Andromeda galaxy is the closest major galaxy to our own. Andromeda shows a distinct blue-shift of light when we analyze it.
saul85 [17]
At the present time, the only way we know of that light can get shifted
toward the blue end of the spectrum is the Doppler effect ... wavelengths
appear shorter than they should be when the source is moving toward us. 

IF that's true in the case of the Andromeda galaxy, it means the galaxy is
moving toward us.

We use the same reasoning to conclude that all the galaxies whose light is red-shifted are moving away from us.  That includes the vast majority of all galaxies that we can see, and it strongly supports the theory of the big bang
and the expanding universe.

If somebody ever comes along and discovers a DIFFERENT way that light
can get shifted to new, longer or shorter wavelengths, then pretty much all
of modern Cosmology will be out the window.  There's a lot riding on the
Doppler effect !

In the interaction between a hammer and the nail it hits, is a force exerted on the nail? On the hammer? How many forces occur i
Vikki [24]
When you hit a hammer on the head of a nail, all the momentum associated with hammer is transferred into nail. And due to this, the surface of nail gets deformed or if you touch it you can feel the rise in temperature. When you hit a hammer on nail, hammer exerts force on nail and by Newton's 3rd law, nail will also exert a force on the hammer perpendicular to the surface of the hammer of same magnitude but its direction will be reversed. Thus, only 2 forces acts in this interaction and they are action-reaction pairs.
