His distance and displacement are the same, which was 400 m

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Distance = 400 m

time = 2 min

Required

Distance and displacement

Solution

Distance is a scalar quantity that indicates the length of the trajectory that is traveled by an object within a certain interval. Distance has no direction, only has magnitude  

Can be simplified distance = totals traveled  

Displacement is a vector quantity that shows changes in the position of objects in a certain interval of time. Displacement has magnitude and direction  

Can be simplified displacement = distanced traveled from starting point to ending point  

From the definition above shows that the displacement and the distance that he traveled have the same value (magnitude), which is equal to 400 m

The value of the two will be different if he starts and finishes at the same point, then the displacement value is zero while the distance he has traveled is still 0

How many liters of water do we need to add to 5.00 moles to get a 0.648 M solution?
Tanya [424]

Answer: This is a typical acid/base equilibrium problem, that involves the use of logarithms.

Explanation:We assume that both nitric acid and hydrochloric acid dissociate to give stoichiometric

Moles of nitric acid:

And, moles of hydrochloric acid:

This molar quantity is diluted to

Now we know that water undergoes autoprotolysis:

How much heat is absorbed when 100.0g of ice is melted?
Elena L [17]

The quantity of heat absorbed is 33.4 kJ.

Δ<em>H</em>_fus = 334 J·g⁻¹

<em>q = m</em>Δ<em>H</em>_fus = 100.0 g × 334 J·g⁻¹ = 3.34 × 10⁴ J = 33.4 kJ
