Step 1

Certainly! To calculate the magnitude of the displacement and the displacement from start to finish for path D, we need to know the starting and ending positions of path D on the horizontal axis. Show more…

Thanks for your feedback!

The figure shows four paths taken along the horizontal axis. Each path begins at the circular dot beneath the letter denoting the path's name and ends at the very tip of the arrow. In your calculations, round to the nearest integer A B c D 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 position x(m) Part (b) What is the magnitude of the displacement from start to finish, in meters, for path D? Part (c) What is the displacement from start to finish, in meters, for path D?
