<u>Speed vs Velocity </u>
These are two similar physical concepts. They only differ in the fact that the velocity is vectorial, i.e. having magnitude and direction, and the speed is scalar, just the magnitude regardless of the direction. They are strongly related to the concepts of displacement and distance, which are the vectorial and scalar versions of the space traveled by a moving object. The velocity can be computed as
Where is the position vector and t is the time. The speed is
To compute , we only need to know the initial and final positions and subtract them. To compute d, we need to add all the distances traveled by the object, regardless of their directions.
Maggie walks to a friend's house, located 1500 meters from her place. The initial position is 0 and the final position is 1500 m. The displacement is
and the velocity is
Now, we know Maggie had to make three different turns of direction to finally get there. This means her distance is more than 1500 m. Let's say she walked 500 m in all the turns, then the distance is
If she took the same time to reach her destiny, she would have to run faster, because her average speed is
Answer:
B) t = 1.83 [s]
A) y = 16.51 [m]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.
where:
Vf = final velocity = 0
Vo = initial velocity = 18 [m/s]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]
t = time [s]
Note: the negative sign in the above equation means that the acceleration of gravity is acting in the opposite direction to the motion.
A) The maximum height is reached when the final velocity of the ball is zero.
0 = 18 - (9.81*t)
9.81*t = 18
t = 18/9.81
t = 1.83 [s], we found the answer for B.
Now using the following equation.
where:
y = elevation [m]
Yo = initial elevation = 0
y = 18*(1.83) - 0.5*9.81*(1.83)²
y = 16.51 [m]
