You cover the following displacements every day going to school: d1=50 m, E and d2=95 m, N. You do this for 12 minutes. a) What
1 answer:
The speeds and velcity will be 0.020 m/sec and 0.0149 m/sec.
<h3>What is speed?</h3>Speed is defined as the rate of change of the distance or the height attained. it is a time-based quantity. it is denoted by u for the initial speed while V for the final speed. its si unit is m/sec.
Given data;
d1=50 m E
d2=95 m N
Time period,t = 12 min = 12 × 60 sec = 7200 sec
The displacement is the shortest distance found from the pythogorous theorem as;
Displacement = √[(50 )²+(95)²]
Displacement = 107.35 m
a)The speed is found as;
Speed = distance / time
Speed = 50 +95 / 7200
Speed = 0.020 m/sec
b)The velocity is found as;
Velocity = Displacement / time
Velocity = 107.35 / 7200
Velocity = 0.0149 m/sec
Hence the speed and the velcity will be 0.020 m/sec and 0.0149 m/sec.

B) gravitational to kinetic
Explanation:
The skydiver, when he is located at a certain height h above the ground, possesses gravitational potential energy, equal to:
where m is the mass of the skydiver, g is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height above the ground. As he falls, its height h decreases, while his speed v increases, so part of the gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is given by
so, we see that as v increases, the kinetic energy increases. Therefore the correct answer is
