Two campers in a national park hike from their cabin to the same spot on a lake, each taking a different path, as illustrated below: Path 2 W Path 1 The total distance travelled along Path 1 is 7.5 km, and that along Path 2 is 8.2 km. Suppose that Camper A takes Path 1, and Camper B takes Path 2. Which statement regarding distance and displacement of the campers is correct? a. Both campers have travelled the same distance, but the total displacement is different. b. Both campers have travelled the same distance, and the total displacement is the same. c. Both campers have travelled ther same distance, and the magnitude of total displacement is the same. d. Total displacement of both campers is the same, but distance travelled is different. e. There is not enough information to draw any conclusions regarding distance and displacement. %24

6. Two campers in a national park hike from their cabin to the same spot on a lake, each
taking a different path, as illustrated below:
Path 2
Path 1
The total distance travelled along Path 1 is 7.5 km, and that along Path 2 is 8.2 km.
Suppose that Camper A takes Path 1, and Camper B takes Path 2.
Which statement regarding distance and displacement of the campers is correct?
a. Both campers have travelled the same distance, but the total displacement is
different.
b. Both campers have travelled the same distance, and the total displacement is the
same.
C. Both campers have travelled the same distance, and the magnitude of total
displacement is the same.
d. Total displacement of both campers is the same, but distance travelled is
different.
e. There is not enough information to draw any conclusions regarding distance and
displacement.
7. If a car is travelling, north with a constant speed of 25.0 m/s, what is the net force that
acts on the car?
EF = 9.80 N
b. EF 0
C. EF=-9.80 N
d. EF = 25.0 N
e. We cannot draw any conclusions about the force because we do not know the
a.
mass of the car.
