A ball rolls from 10 m to -25 m in 2.5 seconds. What was<br> its average velocity?<br> (Units = m/s)
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

v = -14 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial location of the ball, X₁ = 10 m

Final position of the ball,  X₂ = -25 m

Time taken to travel is, t = 2.5 s

The average velocity of the ball is given by the formula,

                       V = X₂ - X₁ / t     m/s

Substituting the values in the above equation,

                       V = -25 - 10 / 2.5

                          = -14 m/s

The negative sign in the velocity indicates that ball rolls in the opposite direction.

Hence, the average velocity of the ball is  v = -14 m/s

A skater with a mass of 72 kg is traveling east at 5.8 m/s when he collides with another skater of mass 45 kg heading 60° south
Akimi4 [234]

The final velocity is 5.87 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

mass, m_{1} = 72 kg

speed, v_{1} = 5.8 m/s

Mass_{2},m_{2}  = 45 kg

speed_{2},v_{2}  = 12 m/s

Θ = 60°

Final velocity, v = ?

Applying the conservation of momentum:

m_{1} X v_{1} + m_{2} X v_{2} = (m_{1} +m_{2} ) v

72 X 5.8 + 45 X 12 X cos 60° = (72 + 45) v

v = 417.6 + 540 X \frac{0.5}{117}

v = 417.6 + \frac{270}{117}

v = 5.87 m/s

The final velocity is 5.87 m/s

Zamir and Talia raced through a maze. Zamir walked 2 m north, 2 m east, 4 m south, 2 m east, 4 m north, 2 m east, 3 m south, 4 m
Alja [10]

Answer : Zamir's displacement and Talia's displacement is equal.

Explanation :

Displacement is explained to be the changing position of an object.

Zamir covers total distance 27 m and Talia covers total distance 19 m but  Zamir's initial and final position and Talia's initial and final position is same.

So, we can say that Zamir's displacement and Talia's displacement is equal.
