Answer:
v = 18.84 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
The length of the string, r = 1.5 m (it will act as radius)
The rubber stopper makes 120 complete circles every minute.
Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds
It means, its frequency is 2 circles every second.
Let we need to find the average speed of the rubber stopper. It can be calculated as follows :
![v=\dfrac{d}{T}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v%3D%5Cdfrac%7Bd%7D%7BT%7D)
d is distance,
and 1/T = f (frequency)
![v=2\pi rf\\\\=2\pi \times 1.5\times 2\\\\=18.84\ m/s](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v%3D2%5Cpi%20rf%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D2%5Cpi%20%5Ctimes%201.5%5Ctimes%202%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D18.84%5C%20m%2Fs)
So, the average speed of the rubber stopper is 18.84 m/s.
Average velocity =
(displacement) / (time for the displacement)
and
(direction of the displacement) .
Displacement =
(distance from the start-point to the end-point)
and
(direction from the start-point to the end-point) .
When Ben is 200 meters from the corner store,
he is (500 - 200) = 300 meters from his house.
His displacement is
300 meters in the direction
from his house to the neighbor .
His average velocity is
(300/910) = 0.33 meters per second, in the
direction from his house to the neighbor .
