<u>Distance = 12 m</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Distance covered by the runner is same as the total path that he has ran. Here, a person starts at 0 position and goes in one direction to position 12 m. Since the initial point is 0 and the final position is 12, the total distance is calculated by adding the 2 points as: 0+12 = 12 m. So the distance covered and the displacement both are same which is 12 meters.
Distance traveled is the full length of the path covered between two points. It is not a vector and the direction is nil and no negative sign. Example : The distance walked by the teacher is 3.0 m ,The distance walked by a passenger is 5.0 m. Also, the distance traveled need not be equal to the magnitude of the displacement which is the distance between the two positions.
A. The acceleration during the slide is 6.86 m/s²
B. The time taken to slide until he stops is 1.2 s
<h3>How to determine the force of friction</h3>
- Mass (m) = 81.5 Kg
- Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.7
- Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
- Normal reaction (N) = mg = 81.5 × 9.8 = 798.7 N
- Frictional force (F) =?
F = μN
F = 0.7 × 798.7
F = 559.09 N
<h3>A. How to determine the acceleration</h3>
- Mass (m) = 81.5 Kg
- Frictional force (F) = 559.09 N
- Acceleration (a) =?
a = F / m
a = 559.09 / 81.5
a = 6.86 m/s²
<h3>B. How to determine the time </h3>
- Initial velocity (u) = 8.23 m/s
- Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
- Decceleration (a) = -6.86 m/s²
- Time (t) =?
a = (v – u) / t
t = (v – u) / a
t = (0 – 8.23) / -6.86
t = 1.2 s

Complete Question
Q. Two go-carts, A and B, race each other around a 1.0km track. Go-cart A travels at a constant speed of 20m/s. Go-cart B accelerates uniformly from rest at a rate of 0.333m/s^2. Which go-cart wins the race and by how much time?
Answer:
Go-cart A is faster
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length of the track is 
The speed of A is 
The uniform acceleration of B is 
Generally the time taken by go-cart A is mathematically represented as
=> 
=> 
Generally from kinematic equation we can evaluate the time taken by go-cart B as

given that go-cart B starts from rest u = 0 m/s
So

=>
=>
Comparing
we see that
is smaller so go-cart A is faster
False. An Electromagnetic induction is the production of an electromotive force across an electrical conductor in a changing magnetic field.
Answer:
The time taken by the duck to cross the lake is, t= 4 s
Explanation:
Given data,
The initial speed of the ducks, u = 3 m/s
The final speed of the ducks, v = 7 m/s
The acceleration of the duck, a = 1 m/s²
The formula for the acceleration is,
a = (v - u) / t
∴ t = (v - u) / a
Substituting the given values in the above equation,
t = (7 - 3) / 1
= 4 s
Hence, the time taken by the duck to cross the lake is, t= 4 s
