Explanation:

Displacement is the straight line distance from the starting position to the final position.

Person X walks halfway around circle. So her displacement is 100 m.

Person Y walks 3/4 of the way around. So his displacement is 50√2 m ≈ 70.7 m.

Person Z walks completely around the circle, so their displacement is 0 m.

Therefore:

Z < Y < X

Answer:

4v/3

Explanation:

Assume elastic collision by the law of momentum conservation:

$m_1v = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2$

where v is the original speed of car 1, v1 is the final speed of car 1 and v2 is final speed of car 2. m1 and m2 are masses of car 1 and car 2, respectively

Substitute $m_2 = m_1/2 \& v_1 = v/3$

$m_1v = \frac{m_1v}{3} + \frac{m_1v_2}{2}$

Divide both side by $m_1$ , then multiply by 6 we have

$6v = 2v + 3v_2$

$3v_2 = 4v$

$v_2 = \frac{4v}{3}$

So the final speed of the second car is 4/3 of the first car original speed

Answer:

Both conduction and convection require matter to transfer heat. ... Convection occurs when warmer areas of a liquid or gas rise to cooler areas in the liquid or gas. Cooler liquid or gas then takes the place of the warmer areas which have risen higher. This results in a continuous circulation pattern.
