<span>For transverse waves the displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. A ripple on a pond and a wave on a string are easily visualized transverse waves. </span>

If i have a kinematic equation vf^2=vi^2-2*a(xf-xi), how can i solve for xi step by step

azamat

Answer:

Explanation:

$v_f^2 = v_i^2-2a(x_f-x_i)$

Subtract both sides by $v_i^2$ :

$- v_i^2+v_f^2 = -2a(x_f-x_i)$

Divide both sides by -2*a:

$\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a} =x_f-x_i$

Add both sides by $x_i$ :

$x_i+\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a} =x_f$

Subtract both sides by $\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a}$ :

$x_i=x_f-\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a}$

It takes you 5 min to walk with an average velocity of .75 m/s to the north from the parking lot to the entrance of the amusemen

A displacement is a vector quantity that takes into account the shortest distance from the starting point to the endpoint.

The given above gave a time interval in minutes which needs to be converted to seconds. Given that each minute is 60 seconds, 5 minutes equal 300 seconds. To determine the distance, multiply time with speed. The product is 225 m.

Thus, the displacement is 225 m.
