Answer:
Total distance = 700 m
Displacement = 500 m
Explanation:
Notice that Jed travelled a total of 3 x 100 m = 300 m in the North direction, and 300 m + 100 m = 400 m in the East direction. Therefore the total distance he travelled is: 300 + 400 = 700 m.
But the actual displacement is given by the Pythagorean theorem as the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle of legs 300 m and 400 m:
displacement =
Answer:
acceleration
Explanation:
The rate at which velocity changes is the definition of the physical quantity called acceleration, and it is given by the formula:
where is the time that took to change from the initial velocity
to the final velocity
Answer:
a) 2.933 m
b) 4.534 m
Explanation:
We're given the equation
v(t) = -0.4t² + 2t
If we're to find the distance, then we'd have to integrate the velocity, since integration of velocity gives distance, just as differentiation of distance gives velocity.
See attachment for the calculations
The conclusion of the attachment will be
7.467 - 2.933 and that is 4.534 m
Thus, The distance it travels in the second 2 sec is 4.534 m
