Since displacement is a vector quantity, it depends on direction as well as magnitude.

Taking displacement towards east as positive and towards west as negative,
Total displacement = 1200 + (-760) = 440 meters. 

Since distance is a scalar quantity, it depends only upon magnitude.
Total distance = 1200 + 760 = 1960 meters. 

Hope this cleared your doubt, feel free to ask any questions regarding this and have a nice day ahead! :)

What is the magnitude of the net force ∑ F on a 1.9 kg bathroom scale when a 74 kg person stands on it?
dexar [7]

Answer:

725.2‬ N

Explanation:

Since it is not stated the scale, the person or both accelerated or experience weightlessness, the net force acting on the bathroom scale is the weight of the person acting downward as the person stands on the scale .

                       Weight = mass of a body × acceleration due to gravity

                                    = 74 kg × 9.8 m/s²

                                    = 725.2‬ N

in a circuit, where do electric charges go once they have left the voltage source and traveled along the wires?
S_A_V [24]
In an electric circuit, the free electrons are moving around. Since equal charges repel and opposite charges attract, the electrons move from the negatively charged to the positively charged pole of the voltage source.
