Answer:
12.31 m/s
Explanation:
If we recall from the previous knowledge we had about speed,
we will know that:
speed = distance/ time.
As such:
The average speed of the rider bicycle is
average speed = total distance/ total time
Mathematically, it can be computed as:
Answer:
acceleration 8 km/h/s south
Explanation:
First of all, let's remind that a vector quantity is a quantity which has both a magnitude and a direction.
Based on this definition, we can already rule out the following two choices:
distance: 40 km
speed: 40 km/h
Since they only have magnitude, they are not vectors.
Then, the following option:
velocity: 5 km/h north
is wrong, because the car is moving south, not north.
So, the correct choice is
acceleration 8 km/h/s south
In fact, the acceleration can be calculated as
where
v = 40 km/h is the final velocity
u = 0 is the initial velocity
t = 5 s is the time
Substituting,
And since the sign is positive, the direction is the same as the velocity (south).
