Answer:

Avg.velocity=(Δy/ Δt)  =(net displacement/ total time for journey)

Δy = 0

Δt = t

so avg. velocity = 0/t =0

Avg. speed =(total distance traveled/ total time for journey)

total distance = up +down = Ymax+Ymax= 2 Ymax

total time = t

avg. speed = 2 Ymax/t

Explanation:

Since there is no net displacement from the original position,velocity is zero. Claudia is right!

while it covered some distance in time t so its speed is not as qouted by Hossien

Use the diagram below to answer the following question:
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

3.0 cm

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the mirror equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}

where

f is the focal length of the mirror

p is the distance of the object from the mirror

q is the distance of the image from the mirror

In this problem we have:

f = 1.5 cm is the focal length of the mirror (positive for a concave mirror)

p = 3.0 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror

Therefore, the distance of the image is:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{1.5}-\frac{1}{3.0}=\frac{1}{3.0}\\\rightarrow q=3.0 cm

And the positive sign means that the image is real.

(The second part of the exercise is just the description of the image of the first exercise).

If you travel 1.7 km north from your house at noon, and at 6:00 PM you travel 5.4 km south, what is your displacement? 3.7 km no
Yakvenalex [24]

<u>Answer</u>

3.7 Km south


<u>Explanation</u>

The definition of displacement is the distance traveled in a specific direction. It is the vector quantity. We add displacements like the way we add vectors.

Taking the direction towards North to be positive (+1.7 Km), the distance towards south would be negative (-5.4 Km).

Now lets add the two values.

(+1.7) + (-5.4) = 1.7 - 5.4

                    = - 3.7 Km      But negative was towards south.

∴ Answer = 3.7 Km south.
