Question

Can someone please help me with some calculus problems. I don't understand how to do them. one is posted below.

Answer 1

I don't see them... or am I just not looking hard enough? ^.^

Answer 2

i don't know why it didn't post

Answer 3

Displacement is a vector, distance is a scalar.

Answer 4

So displacement requires magnitude and direction, where distance only requires magnitude.

Answer 5

so, how would I do this problem, my teacher skipped this lesson but gave us problems like this to study for our final and I don't understanfd them

Answer 6

It says an object moves from a point of origin 5 meters to the left. Ok so now you want displacement and distance, the magnitude is 5 meters, and the direction is to the left, so all you have to do is, distance = 5m, and displacement = 5m to the left. And you're done. :)

Answer 7

really? that's it? If I Put up the other ones? and tell you what I believe to be the answer could you possibly check them and tell me if im right?

Answer 8

Sure

Answer 9

You should really read on vectors and scalars.
