Displacement depends upon the path taken as it is a vector.
From your problem above we would have a total displacement of;
Defining +x direction as east and -x direction as west
6east-3west+1east+6east-7west
6-3+1+6-7=3 blocks east or + x-direction
So even though they walked a total of 17 blocks it ends up only being 3 blocks total in +xdirection that was travelled by displacement.
Any questions please ask.
Answer:
The particle’s velocity is -16.9 m/s.
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial velocity of particle in negative x direction= 4.91 m/s
Time = 12.9 s
Final velocity of particle in positive x direction= 7.12 m/s
Before 12.4 sec,
Velocity of particle in negative x direction= 5.32 m/s
We need to calculate the acceleration
Using equation of motion


Where, v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
t = time
Put the value into the equation


We need to calculate the initial speed of the particle
Using equation of motion again


Put the value into the formula


Hence, The particle’s velocity is -16.9 m/s.

Answer: KE = 62.5J
Explanation:
Given that
Mass of object = 5kg
kinetic energy KE = ?
velocity of object = 5m/s
Since kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on the mass (m) of the object and the velocity (v) by which it moves. Therefore, the object has kinetic energy.
i.e K.E = 1/2mv^2
KE = 1/2 x 5kg x (5m/s)^2
KE = 0.5 x 5 x 25
KE = 62.5J
Thus, the object has 62.5 joules of kinetic energy.
Explanation:
It is given that,
A mass oscillates up and down on a vertical spring with an amplitude of 3 cm and a period of 2 s. It is a case of simple harmonic motion. If the amplitude of a wave is T seconds, then the distance cover by that object is 4 times the amplitude.
In 2 seconds, distance covered by the mass is 12 cm.
In 1 seconds, distance covered by the mass is 6 cm
So, in 16 seconds, distance covered by the mass is 96 cm
So, the distance covered by the mass in 16 seconds is 96 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.
