1) G. The continents are now farther apart.
2) A. P waves. They usually travel 60% faster than S waves.
3) H. A hot spot caused the Hawaiian Islands to form.
Total distance: 56 meters. Magnitude and direction of displacement: 20 meters South.
Explanation:
The term distance refers to space between one point and other, or the total space a body or object covered while moving. In the case presented, this can be calculated by adding the partial distances given. This means the total distance is 56 meters as 26 meters + 18 meters + 12 meters = 56 meters.
On the other hand, displacement considers the distance from the initial position to the final position, and the direction of movement. This means partial distances should not be added but each movement should be considered according to the direction. The process is shown below:
-The first movement was 26 meters southward; this means by the end of this movement the distance between the initial position was 26 meters south.
- The second movement was 18 northward; this means the kayaker moved 18 meters towards the position. This changes the displacement to 8 meters South as 26 meters south - 18 meters north = 8 meters to the South.
-The last movement was 12 meters sound; this means the kayaker increased the distance from the original position 8 meters to the South + 12 meters to the South = 20 meters South (total displacement.)
It won't be able to mix because one will not get evaporated and it wont go together
Answer:
Point 2.
Explanation:
Potential energy is simply defined as the energy stored in an object due to its position. It is can be represented mathematically by:
P.E = mgh
Where:
P.E is the potential energy.
m is the mass of the object.
g is acceleration due to gravity.
h is the height to which the object is located.
From the above equation, we can thus say that potential energy depends on the height of the object since the mass of the object is always constant i.e as the height of the object increase, the potential energy also increases and as the height of the object decrease, the potential energy also decreases.
Now, considering the diagram in the question given, we can see that point 2 is the lowest height to which the rider is located. At this point i.e point 2, the rider will have the least potential energy.
