Karen runs sets in basketball practice. she starts from a line runs 2.0 m, returns to the line, runs 4.0 m, to the line, runs 6.0 m and on returning stops 1.0 in front the starting line. what is her distance and displacement? a. distance = +23 m, displacement = 1 m b. distance = + 1 m, displacement = 23 m c. distance = 1 m, displacement = +23 m d. distance = 23 m, displacement = + 1 m

D. distance = 23 m, displacement = + 1 m

Explanation:

Let's remind the difference between distance and displacement:

- distance is a scalar, and is the total length covered by an object, counting all the movements in any direction

- displacement is a vector connecting the starting point and the final point of a motion, so its magnitude is given by the length of this vector, and its direction is given by the direction of this vector.

In this case, the distance covered by Karen is given by the sum of all its movements:

The displacement instead is given by the difference between the final point (1.0 m in front of the starting line) and the starting point (the starting line, 0 m):

the answer is b i think

the skeletons of most mammals reach a certain size and then stop growing. however, many animals, including some mammals, keep growing throughout their lives. kangaroos, for example, just keep growing and growing until they die. also, the longer an animal lives the greater the chance it might catch some deadly disease.
