Some people believe that distance and displacement are simply different names for the same quantity. However, distance and displacement are not the same thing. If an object changes direction while travelling, the total distance travelled is greater than the displacement between those two points.

The magnitude of the displacement is always less than or equal to the distance because it is measured along the shortest path between two points.

When the direction of displacement does not change, the magnitude of the displacement and distance are the same. When a body travels in a straight line, for example, its displacement and distance are the same.

For the given question above, I think there is an associated choice of answer for it. However, the answer for this is London Dispersion Forces. <span>Dipole-dipole forces and hydrogen bonding are much stronger, leading to higher melting and boiling points.</span>

Answer:

Period is 86811.5 seconds.

Explanation:

${ \boxed{ \bf{T {}^{2} = (\frac{4 {\pi}^{2} }{GM}) {r}^{3} }}}$

${ \tt{T {}^{2} = \frac{4 {(3.14)}^{2} }{(6.6 \times {10}^{ - 11} ) \times (5.98 \times {10}^{24} )} \times {((35880\times {10}^{3}) } + (6370 \times {10}^{3} )) {}^{3} }} \\ \\ { \tt{T {}^{2} = 7.54 \times {10}^{9} }} \\ { \tt{T = \sqrt{7.54 \times {10}^{9} } }} \\ { \tt{T = 86811.5 \: seconds}}$
