Sally started at the starting point.

She walked 10m forward.  So far, she walked 10m, and she was 10m from the starting point.

Then she walked 5m backward.  So far, she walked 15m, but she was only 5m from the starting point.

The distance she walked was 15m.  But her displacement is how far she is from the starting point ... that's only 5m

Displacement = 5 meters

Distance = 15 meters

Displacement is 10m less than distance walked.  <em>(B)</em>


===> If she kept going and walked <u><em>another </em></u>5m backward, she would be back where she started.  The total distance she walked would be 20m, and her displacement would be zero !

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the top of a building 112 feet tall with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. The
nordsb [41]

Answer:

t=6.96s

Explanation:

From this exercise, our knowable variables are <u>hight and initial velocity </u>

v_{oy}=96ft/s

y_{o}=112ft

To find how much time does the <u>ball strike the ground</u>, we need to know that the final position of the ball is y=0ft

y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

0=112ft+(96ft/s)t-\frac{1}{2}(32.2ft/s^{2})t^{2}

Solving for t using quadratic formula

t=\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

a=-\frac{1}{2} (32.2)\\b=96\\c=112

t=-0.999s or t=6.96s

<u><em>Since time can't be negative the answer is t=6.96s</em></u>

In 1909, galileo first looked at the milky way using very powerful binoculars
anastassius [24]
<span>Galileo first studied the Milky Way through his telescope in January, 1610 not 1909. Until his observations, the Milky Way was thought to be a band of wispy whitish clouds passing through the heavens. To Galileo's amazement, instead of seeing just a nebula (the Greek work for cloud) the milky wisps resolved into innumerable tiny stars, so crowded together that, without the aid of a telescope, the light from those stars simply blended together. </span>
