Question

18. The displacement of an object moving 330 km North for 2 hours and an additional 220

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Displacement of the object will be gotten using simply adding the distances since they are goinf in the same direction (positive y direction)

Displacement= 330km + 220km

Displacement = 550km North

2) For a falling body, the body will possess positive acceleration due to gravity because it is falling under the influence of gravitational force. If a body is not under the influence of gravity and is thrown up, such body wont come back down. Hence the value of acceleration due to gravity of a body falling to the ground is +9.8 m/s² (note that the unit of acceleration is m/s²)
