We use the kinematic equations,

v=u+at                                          (A)

S= ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2                  (B)

Here, u is initial velocity, v is final velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Given,  u=0, a=0.21 \ m/s^2 and s= 280 m.

Substituting these values in equation (B), we get

280 \ m = 0 +\frac{1}{2} (0.21 m/s^2) t^2 \\\\ t^2 = \frac{280 \times 2}{0.21 } \\\\ t= 51.63 \ s.

Therefore from equation (A),

v = 0 + (0.21) \times (51.63 s)= 10.84 \ m/s

Thus, the magnitude of the boat's final velocity is 10.84 m/s and the time taken by boat to travel the distance 280 m is 51.63 s

He goes 12km north 6km east 12km south 3km west what is the distance and displacement
Hunter-Best [27]

Distance is 33 km, displacement is 3 km east

Explanation:

- Distance is a scalar quantity equal to the total length of the path covered by an object during its motion, regardless of its direction.

- Displacement is a vector connecting the starting position of motion of an object to its final position. It is a vector quantity, therefore it has both magnitude and direction.

In this problem, the motion of the person is:

12 km north

6 km east

12 km south

3 km west

Therefore, the distance is:

d=12+6+12+3=33 km

The displacement instead can be calculated by comparing the final position with the initial position. We notice that:

- the person goes 12 km north and 12 km south, so he didn't move in the north-direction

- The person goes 6 km east and 3 km west, so his final position is 3 km east

Therefore, the displacement is 3 km east.

1. A bicycle initially moving with a velocity
ki77a [65]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 15 \ m/s \ or \ 15 \ m*s^{-1}}}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the final velocity. We are given the acceleration, time, and initial velocity, so we can use the following kinematics formula.

v_f= v_i+ at

In this formula, v_f is the final velocity, v_i is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.

The bicycle has an initial velocity of 5.0 m *s⁻¹ or m/s, acceleration of 2 m/s², and a time of 5 seconds.

\bullet \  v_i = 5.0 \ m/s \\\bullet \  a= 2\ m/s^2\\\bullet \  t= 5  \ s

Substitute the values into the formula.

v_f=5.0 \ m/s + ( 2\ m/s^2 * 5 \ s)

Solve inside the parentheses.

  • \frac {2 \ m}{s^2}* 5 \ s = \frac{ 2 \ m}{s} * 5 = \frac{ 10 \ m}{s} = 10 \ m/s

v_f= 5.0 \ m/s + (10 \ m/s)

Add.

v_f= 15 \ m/s

The units can also be written as:

v_f= 15 \ m*s^{-1}

The bicycle's final velocity is 15 meters per second.
