The formula we need to use is displacement.
, where xf is final position and xi is initial position.
We report the final position of 5 and the displacement of 2 so the formula is now:
.
So the initial position of truck A is 3.
Hope this helps.

Answer:
Explanation:
Given
1 ) 140 m west in 45 s .
2 ) 90 m east in 25 s .
a )
distance travelled in first 45 s = 140 m
b ) distance travelled in next 25 s = 90 m
c ) Total distance travelled = 140 m + 90 m
= 230 m
d ) average speed in first 45 s
= distance in 45 s 45
= 140 / 45 = 3.11 m /s
e ) average speed in next 25 s
distance in 25 s / 25
= 90 / 25 = 3.6 m /s
f ) average in entire trip
= total distance / total time
= (140 + 90) / ( 25 + 45 )
= 3.28 m /s
g )
displacement in first 45 s = 140 m towards west
h )
displacement in next 25 s = 90 m towards east
i )
total displacement = 140 - 90
= 50 m towards west .

The ancient astronomers think areas of the moon called mares might be Seas.
Option D
<u>Explanation</u>:
The surface area of Earth's moon is dark, large, and is basaltic plains which are formed by ancient volcanic eruptions. They were dubbed as Maria, "ancient astronomers" who misunderstood them as actual seas. They are less reflective than highlands. Due to their iron-rich composition, they tend to appear dark from the naked eye. The Maria cover approximately about 16% of surface mostly on side that is visible from Earth. The few Maria on side that is too far are much smaller and residing mostly in very large craters. The ancient astronomers mistook the surface area as look like actual seas.
