Answer:

39 miles

Explanation:

we will make your house to be the central point in the four cardinal points.

Please follow the diagram on the attachment to get the movement clearly.

First, you move to a dry cleaners 12miles east of your house, and then to a grocery store 15miles west of your house.

This means you must have moved back to your house before going to the grocery which is 15miles west of your house.

so to and fro from your house to dry cleaners = 12*2 = 24 miles.

Then the total distance you cover will be = 24 +15 = 39 miles

What happens when charged object is brought near uncharged object?<br> Attract or Repel ?
Makovka662 [10]
When a charged object is brought near to but does not touch a neutral object, it causes the side of the neutral object that the charged object is near to become the other charge. It causes charge migration within the neutral object so the two charges (positive and negative) move to opposite sides of the object. Because the two objects do not touch, they do not repel each other, but rather have a slight attraction because of charge migration. If the two object were to touch then they would repel.
