Answer:

x = -6.5 meters

Explanation:

The position of a ball as a function of time t is given by :

$x=3\ m+(-5\ m/s)t$ ..................(1)

Where t is time in seconds

We need to find the position of the ball at 1.9 s. It can be simply calculated putting t = 1.9 s in equation (1) as :

$x=3+(-5)(1.9)$

x = -6.5 meters

So, the position of the ball at 1.9 seconds is -6.5 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

To solve this problem we will apply the geometric concepts of displacement according to the description given. Taking into account that there is an initial displacement towards the North and then towards the west, therefore the speed would be:

$V_T^2=v_N^2-v_W^2$

$V_T = \sqrt{v_N^2-v_W^2}$

Travel north 2mph and west to 1mph, then,

$V_T = \sqrt{2^2-1^2}$

$V_T = \sqrt{3}$

The route is done exactly the same to the south and east, so make this route twice, from the definition of speed we have to

$v= \frac{\Delta x}{t}$

$t = \frac{\Delta x}{v}$

$t = \frac{2*(1mile)}{\sqrt{3}mph}$

$t = 1.15hour$

Therefore the total travel time for the man is 1.15hour.

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:cart B

Explanation:

For cart A speed is constant therefore there is no acceleration because acceleration is rate of change of velocity

thus there is no net force

For cart B there is change in velocity in the left direction , so there is net acceleration towards left

$Force=mass\times acceleration$

so there is net force in the left direction

For cart C there is decrease in velocity i.e. negative acceleration or deceleration . Therefore there is a net force towards right which opposes the motion
