Answer:
The circumference of the Earth is 24818.58 miles
Explanation:
Analysis conceptual : The formula of the circumference is the following:
L= π*D Formula (1)
Where:
L : is the length of the circumference in miles (mi)
π : is the constant
D : is the diameter of the circumference in miles (mi)
Known data
π = 3.1416
D= 7900 miles: Diameter of the Earth
Problem development
We apply the formula 1 to calculate the circumference of the Earth (L):
L= π*7900 miles
L= 24818.58 miles
Because it’s made of metal. And metal is a good conductor
His total displacement from his original position is -1 m
We know that total displacement of an object from a position x to a position x', d = final position - initial position.
d = x' - x
If we assume the lad's initial position in front of her house is x = 0 m. The lad then moves towards the positive x-axis, 5 m. He then ends up at x' = 5 m. He then finally goes back 6 m.
Since displacement = final position - initial position, and his displacement is d' = -6 m (since he moves in the negative x - direction or moves back) from his initial position of x' = 5 m.
His final position, x" after moving back 6 m is gotten from
x" - x' = -6 m
x" = -6 + x'
x" = -6 + 5
x" = -1 m
Thus, his total displacement from his original position is
d = final position - initial position
d = x" - x
d = -1 m - 0 m
d = -1 m
So, his total displacement from his original position is -1 m
