Answer:
1.) Total distance = 70 m
2.) Total displacement = +30m
Explanation:
Distance is a scaler quantity. That is, we will be concerned about its magnitude only and not direction.
Total distance = 10 + 20 + 40 = 70 m
While displacement is a vector quantity. We will consider both the magnitude and its direction.
Forward direction will be positive while backward direction will be negative
Total displacement = +10 - 20 + 40
Total displacement = +30 m
Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time. Your Δv is +13.9, since you increased speed by 50 km/h which is 13.9 m/s, and your Δt is 10s. 13.9/10 = 1.39 m/s^2, the standard units for acceleration. Make sense?
I'm assuming you want the first law of thermodynamics.
The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy and cannot be created or destroyed. It can, however, be transferred from one location to another and can be converted into other forms of energy.
