If you walk 1.2 km north and then 1.6 km east, what are the magnitude and direction of your resultant displacement?

Physics

vodomira [7]2 years ago
5 0

<u>Answer:</u>

 Option A is the correct answer.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Let the east point towards positive X-axis and north point towards positive Y-axis.

 First walking 1.2 km north,  displacement = 1.2 j km

 Secondly 1.6 km east, displacement = 1.6 i km

 Total displacement = (1.6 i + 1.2 j) km

 Magnitude = \sqrt{1.2^2+1.6^2} = 2 km

 Angle of resultant with positive X - axis = tan^{-1}(1.2/1.6)=36.87^0 = 36.87⁰ east of north.

Tests reveal that a normal driver takes about 0.75 s before he or she can react to a situation to avoid a collision. It takes ab
nata0808 [166]

To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations. On these equations we will define the speed as the distance traveled in a space of time, and that speed will be in charge of indicating the reaction rate of the individual. In turn, using the ratio of speed, position and acceleration, we will clear the position and determine the distance necessary for braking.

The relation to express the velocity in terms of position for constant acceleration is as follows

v^2 = u^2+2a(s-s_0)

Here,

u = Initial velocity

v= Final velocity

a = Acceleration

s_0 = Initial position

s = Final position

PART 1) Calculate the displacement within the reaction time

d = vt

d = (44)(0.75)

d = 33ft

In this case we can calculate the shortest stopping distance

0^2 = 44^2+2(-2)(s-33)

s = 517ft

PART 2)

PART 1) Calculate the displacement within the reaction time

d = vt

d = (44)(3)

d = 132ft

In this case we can calculate the shortest stopping distance

0^2 = 44^2+2(-2)(s-132)

s = 616ft

While a person without alcohol would cost 517ft to slow down, under alcoholic substances that distance would be 616ft
