2 Questions 1 No One Can Ever Answer And One other Will medal and fan!!!!! http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/576d4a92e4b0a769b691d4af Impossible Question Which of the following describes a situation in which the total distance a baseball player travels is zero meters from his starting point? The player runs 5 meters forward, and then runs 5 meters in the opposite direction. The player runs 5 meters forward, and then runs 6 meters in the opposite direction. The player runs 6 meters forward, and then runs 5 meters in the opposite direction. The player runs 6 meters forward, and then runs 0 m
Both trick questions. The first one: anyone can answer it, but no can prove their answer. The second one: you can never "take back" _total_distance_traveled_, so in all four answers the ball player has traveled _some_ distance. But in ONE of the answers, his total displacement, or his total change in position, is zero.
So D? @mjdennis
Really? Go try it in the hallway. It won't change the answer if you change units of measure, so run 6 steps forward, then run 0 steps in any direction. Are you back where you started?
lol no
