In which of the following cases is the displacement's magnitude half the distance traveled? a. 24 steps east followed by 12 steps west
b. 5 steps east followed by 25 steps west
c. 7 steps east followed by 28 steps west
O d. 9 steps east followed by 3 steps west
e. 13 steps east followed by 4 steps west
c

a. 24 steps east followed by 12 steps west

Explanation:

displacement is how much you distance you moved from the starting point so in this example 12 steps even though you move 36 steps all together.

the motion of a pendulum is a classic example of mechanical energy conservation. a pendulum consists of a mass (known as a bob ) attached by a string to a pivot point. as the pendulum moves it sweeps out a circular arc, moving back and forth in a periodic fashion.
