On a velocity - time graph, if the line crosses the x - axis it depicts that the object has started moving in the opposite direction.
The thermal energy is proportional to the movement of the particles in every state.
Decreasing the thermal energy will decrease the movement.
Answer:
A) 35 ft
B) 5 ft
C) Net displacement = distance covered by the dog to retrieve the stick - distance covered before the dog starts chewing the stick
Explanation:
A) Total distance covered by the dog = 20 + 15
= 35 ft
B) Since the other distance covered by the dog before chewing the stick, after the retrieval, was in an opposite direction to the initial direction, then;
total displacement of the dog = 20 - 15
= 5 ft
C) Net displacement = distance covered by the dog to retrieve the stick + distance covered before the dog starts chewing the stick
But, displacement involves a specified direction. The distance covered before the dog starts chewing the stick was in an opposite direction to the initial direction.
Thus,
Net displacement = distance covered by the dog to retrieve the stick - distance covered before the dog starts chewing the stick
