Answer:

Total: 200 meters, Displacement: 100 meters South

Explanation:

First, add up the meters traveled to get the total distance.

50m + 150m = 200m

Lastly, displacement is the shortest distance from the initial position to the final position. The person first walked 50 meters north but then traveled 150 meters south. Therefore, their displacement was 100 meters south.

50m - 150m = -100m

(Note: Directions are vectors. North and East are positive vectors while South and West are negative)

How do I know if i’m doing number 2 right?
Ksju [112]

We are given an object that is speeding up on a level ground.

Let's remember that the gravitational energy depends on the change in height, therefore, if the object is not changing its height it means that the gravitational energy remains constant.

The kinetic energy depends on the velocity. If the velocity is increasing this means that the kinetic energy is also increasing.

Now, every change in velocity requires acceleration and acceleration requires a force. The force and the distance that the object moves are equivalent to the work that is transferred to the object and therefore, the change in kinetic energy. This means that the total energy of the system increases as work is transferred to the mass.

We have that the total energy of the system increases in the form of kinetic energy and that the gravitational potential energy remains constant. Therefore, the diagrams should look like pie charts that grow but the area of the segment of the potential energy stays the same. It should look similar to the following.
