Answer:

Displacement = 70 m towards east

Explanation:

Displacement is the shortest distance between the two points.

Let us say that he starts at the point O and travels in a path ABC.

If we join the initial and final point of the path travelled by him, it will give the displacement of the man.

Distance from O to A = 40 m

Distance from A to B = 70 m

Distance from B to C = 40 m

Distance from O to A = Distance from B to C

We want the displacement which is distance between the points O and C

In rectangle opposite sides are equal. Hence Distance from O to C = Distance from A to B

Displacement = Distance from A to B

Issac and Blaise decide to race. They both start at the same position at the same time. Issac runs at 2m/s but decides to take a

FromTheMoon [43]

Let the Blaise runs for time "t" to complete the race

so the total distance he moved is given by

$d_1 = 1* t$

Now Issac runs for time t = "t - 2*60"

because it took rest for 2 minutes

$d_2 = 2*(t - 120)$

now it is given that Blaise wins by 10 m distance

$d_1 - d_2 = 10$

$1* t - 2*(t - 120) = 10$

$t - 2t + 240 = 10$

$t = 230 s$

now the distance moved by Blaise is given by

$d_1 = 1*230 = 230 m$

A force gives a 2.0 kg mass an acceleration of 5.0 m/s2 on a level surface. What is the force applied to the mass?

Verdich [7]

So you can use the equation force = mass x acceleration to do 2 x 5 to get 10 N

An island reports that in the year 2000 there were 240 babies born. That same year, 100 individuals died.

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

+ 140

Explanation:

You can show the natural growth rate by subtracting the death rate from the birth rate during one year and converting this into a percentage.

Here it would be:

240 - 100 = + 140

// if you want to convert it to percentage, you need to know the size of the population

it would be

140 / (population size) * 100 %
