Answer:
The net force on the skater is zero. ()
Explanation:
According to Newton's First Law, an object is at equilibrium when either it is at rest or moves at constant velocity, which means a net force of zero. Based on the given statement, there are no external forces acting on skate and, therefore, the net force on the skater is zero. ()
D. distance = 23 m, displacement = + 1 m
Explanation:
Let's remind the difference between distance and displacement:
- distance is a scalar, and is the total length covered by an object, counting all the movements in any direction
- displacement is a vector connecting the starting point and the final point of a motion, so its magnitude is given by the length of this vector, and its direction is given by the direction of this vector.
In this case, the distance covered by Karen is given by the sum of all its movements:
The displacement instead is given by the difference between the final point (1.0 m in front of the starting line) and the starting point (the starting line, 0 m):
