A car moves from a position 50 m south of the library to a new position 250

Physics
1 answer:
Charra [1.4K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A. 20 m/s north

Explanation:

The velocity of the car can be  calculated as:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement

t is the time interval

Taking north as positive direction, the initial position of the car is

r_i = -50 m (south)

while the final position is

r_f = +250 m (north)

So, the displacement is

d=r_f -r_i = +250-(-50)=+300 m (north)

The time interval for the motion is

t = 15 s

So, the velocity of the car is

v=\frac{+300}{15}=+20 m/s (north)

Which of the following is most appropriate to follow motion in one dimension?
Lyrx [107]
The linear scale is applicable only as it moves in one dimension. From the word "linear" it means it deals with one equation only. Unlike the other options, the dimensions are many because it involves 2 or more variables for its equation.
