Question

An object moves +5.5 m. What indicates the distance?

+
5.5 m
m
+5.5m

***not sure which of those above choices would be the distance component? :/

Answer 1

The value that indicates the distance of the object's motion would be 5.5. It shows the length or the distance the object traveled. The positive sign indicates the direction of the motion. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.

Answer 2

5.5m

Explanation:

The "+" represents a positive direction.

5.5m represents the distance traveled.

The "m" represents the units used. In this case we are measuring in meters.

+5.5m represents an object moved 5.5m in a positive direction.

Since we want the distance itself, the correct answer is B.

Best of Luck!
