A negative externality:

wolverine [178]

Answer:

A) is a cost to a bystander.

Explanation:

A negative externality is defined as the difference between the social cost and an economic agent from the private cost of an action.

A negative externality is a cost to a bystander as negative externality occurs when a transaction between a buyer and seller affects third party with a loss, which has no involvement in the transaction.

Hence, the correct option is A.

Maggie walks to a friends house which is exactly 1500 meters due South. It takes Maggie 45 minutes for the walk and Maggie has t

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

<em>Explanation below</em>

Explanation:

<u>Speed vs Velocity </u>

These are two similar physical concepts. They only differ in the fact that the velocity is vectorial, i.e. having magnitude and direction, and the speed is scalar, just the magnitude regardless of the direction. They are strongly related to the concepts of displacement and distance, which are the vectorial and scalar versions of the space traveled by a moving object. The velocity can be computed as

$\displaystyle \vec v=\frac{\vec r}{t}$

Where $\vec r$ is the position vector and t is the time. The speed is

$\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}$

To compute $\vec r$ , we only need to know the initial and final positions and subtract them. To compute d, we need to add all the distances traveled by the object, regardless of their directions.

Maggie walks to a friend's house, located 1500 meters from her place. The initial position is 0 and the final position is 1500 m. The displacement is

$\vec r=1500\ m \text{ to the south}$

and the velocity is

$\displaystyle \vec v=\frac{1500}{45}=33.33\ m/s\text{ to the south}$

Now, we know Maggie had to make three different turns of direction to finally get there. This means her distance is more than 1500 m. Let's say she walked 500 m in all the turns, then the distance is

$d=1500+500=2000\ m$

If she took the same time to reach her destiny, she would have to run faster, because her average speed is

$\displaystyle v=\frac{2000}{45}=44.44\ m/s$
