You walk from your bedroom, 25m to the mailbox, and then walk 25m back to your bedroom. What is your total distance? What is your displacement?

Distance is 50m

Displacement is 0m

Explanation:

Distance is based on the amount of length you covered, regardless of where you end.

Displacement only considered where you started and where you ended, which is at the same spot in this case. Therefore, no displacement.

the minimum amperage that the current in this wire would have to have so that its weight is completely supported by the magnetic force due to earth's field, assuming that no other forces except gravity act on it

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.
