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

Is burning of coal a reversible change???<br> If yes how?
koban [17]
I don't think so. No way that I know anyway. It it could be done then the need for more coal to be mined would have stopped hundreds of years ago. Once coal is burned, it forms water and carbon dioxide (essentially) with some sulfur oxides. 

How do you put that back together again. It's a little like humpty dumpty.

Benzene exists as a resonance hybrid and its bonds exhibit characteristics that are halfway between single and double bonds. Res
gregori [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

We can only talk about resonance hybrid for a compound in which more than one structure is possible based on its observed chemical properties.

There are compounds whose chemical properties can not be satisfactorily explained on the basis of a single chemical structure. In the case of such compounds, we invoke the idea of resonance.

A resonance hybrid is a single structure drawn to represent a given chemical specie which exhibits resonance behaviour and can otherwise be represented on paper in the form of an average of two or more chemical structures separated each from the next by a double-headed arrow.
