A honeybee leaves the hive, traveling at a speed of 4 mph and returns 1 hour later. What was the distance traveled and the displacement of the honeybee in miles.

This question appear incomplete

Explanation:

This question appear incomplete because of the absence of the time the honeybee spent while travelling from the hive. However, if we are to assume that the honeybee spent the same amount of time leaving/travelling as when it was returning. Then the formula to be used is

Speed = distance ÷ time

distance = speed × time

distance = 4 × 1

distance = 4 miles

To determine the displacement of the honeybee, the total distance covered by the honeybee in both to and fro journey will have to be summed (this is because displacement is a vector quantity).

Assuming the the speed and time spent while returning is the same with those spent while leaving, then the displacement will be distance × 2 (sum of all the distance covered)

Thus; 4 × 2 = 8 miles

probably not if net force is zero

in physics zero. in muscle fatigue could be high
