21) Acceleration from D to E:
22) The acceleration of the bus from D to E is
Explanation:
21)
The acceleration of an object is equal to the rate of change of velocity of the object. Mathematically:
where
u is the initial velocity
v is the final velocity
t is the time elapsed
In this problem, we want to measure the acceleration of the bus from point D to point E. We have:
- Initial velocity at point D: u = 0
- Final velocity at point E: v = 5 m/s
- Time elapsed from D to E: t = 21 - 16 = 5 s
Therefore, the acceleration between D and E is
22) This question is the same as 21), so the result is the same.

Answer:
b) 5 J
Explanation:
Work is the energy transferred by an object when acted by a force along a displacement. Work is the product of force and displacement. The SI unit of work is the joules (J)
To calculate the work done by the force, we have to first get the displacement (D) of the object. Hence:
Displacement (D) = Q(3, 8) - P(1, 3) = (3 - 1, 8 - 3) = (2, 5) = 2i + 5j
The work done is the dot product of the force and the displacement. Force = 5i - j. Hence:
Work done = (5i - j)(2i + 5j) = 10 - 5 = 5 J
