The magnitude of your displacement can be equal to the distance you covered, or it can be less than the distance you covered. But it can never be greater than the distance you covered.
This is because displacement is a straight line, whereas distance can be a straight line, a squiggly line, a zig-zag line, a line with loops in it, a line with a bunch of back-and-forths in it, or any other kind of line.
The straight line is always the shortest path between two points.

Answer:
Explanation:
Given
mass of boy 
mass of girl 
speed of girl after push 
Suppose speed of boy after push is 
initially momentum of system is zero so final momentum is also zero because momentum is conserved




i.e. velocity of boy is 2.82 m/s towards west
The sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.
Answer:
Explanation:
It is known that distance covered by any object is directly proportional to the velocity of the object and the time taken to cover that distance.
Distance = Velocity × Time.
So if time is kept constant, then the distance covered by a wave can vary depending on the velocity of the wave.
As we can see in the present case, the velocity of sound wave in air is 343 m/s. So in 2.25 s, the sound wave will be able to cover the distance as shown below.
Distance = 343 × 2.25 =771.75 m
And for the sound wave travelling in fresh water, the velocity is given as 1483 m/s. So in a time interval of 2.25 s, the distance can be determined as the product of velocity and time.
Distance = 1483×2.25=3337 m.
Since, the velocity of sound wave travelling in fresh water is greater than the sound wave travelling in air, the distance traveled by sound wave in fresh water will be greater.
Difference in distance covered in water and air = 3337-772 m = 2565 m
So the sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.
