Answer:

No

Explanation:

Displacement is how far between your initial and finishing position.

If one lap around the track is 400 m and the sprinter ran 1 lap around the track. Then the sprinter's distance is 400 m and their displacement is 0 m

If the sprinter ran 400 m in a straight line however, then it would be equal.

But since the sprinter ran 1 lap around there is no displacement.

I hope this helped you...

elena-s [515]

Answer:

Explanation:

When we apply a horizontal force of 76 N to a block, the block moves across the floor at a constant speed. So net force on the block is zero .

It implies that a force ( frictional ) acts on it which is equal to 76 N in opposite direction ( friction )

When we apply  a greater force on it it starts moving with acceleration .

This time kinetic friction acts on it due to rough ground equal to 76 N .This is limiting friction ( maximum friction )

Net force on the body in later case

= 89 - 76

= 13 N

Force by ground on the block in horizontal direction = 76 N ( FRICTIONAL FORCE )
