A research team developed a robot named Ellie. Ellie ran 1,000 meters for 200 seconds from the research building, rested for 100

seconds, and walked back to the research building for 1000 seconds. To find out Ellie’s average velocity for each case while running, resting, and walking, begin by plotting a graph between position and time. 1.List the velocity from greatest to least among running, resting, and walking
2.List the speed from greatest to least among running, resting, and walking.

Answer:

1. Running velocity (5 m/s)

2. Resting velocity (0 m/s)

3. Walking velocity (-1 m/s)

1. Running speed (5 m/s)

2. Walking speed (1 m/s)

3. Resting speed (0 m/s)

Explanation:

Attached you will find the plot of position vs time of Ellie´s movement.

The velocity is the displacement of the object over time relative to the system of reference. The speed, in change, is the traveled distance over time in disregard of the system of reference.

So, the velocity is calculated as follows:

v = Δx / Δt

where

Δx = final position - initial position

Δt = elapsed time

1) The average velocity of Ellie while running is:

v = 1000 m - 0 m / 200 s = 5 m/s

While resting:

v = 0 m - 0 m / 100 s = 0 m/s

And while walking back:

v = 0 m - 1000 m / 1000 s = - 1 m/s

Note that in this last case, the initial position is 1000 m because Ellie is 1000 m from the origin of the system of reference when she walks back. The final position will be the origin of the system of reference, 0 m.

Comparing with the graphic, the velocity is the slope of the function position(t).

Then:

1. Running velocity (5 m/s)

2. Resting velocity (0 m/s)

3. Walking velocity (-1 m/s)

2) The speed is the distance traveled over time:

Running speed = 1000 m / 200 s = 5m /s

Resting speed = 0 m / 100 s = 0 m/s

Walking speed = 1000 m/ 1000 s = 1 m/s

Then:

1. Running speed (5 m/s)

2. Walking speed (1 m/s)

3. Resting speed (0 m/s)

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

We finds that the winds are coming from the west at 15 miles per hour. This information shows the velocity of the wind. Since, velocity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction. 15 miles per hour shows the speed of wind and west shows the direction of wind motion.

Hence, the given information describes wind velocity.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:4-strikes the plane at same time as the other body

Explanation:

Given

If both bodies is falling on a horizontal plane and second body is given an acceleration in horizontal direction then it does not change the time to reach the Horizontal Plate as there is no change in vertical direction.

Horizontal acceleration will give only horizontal range and horizontal velocity.

She knows the speed limit in the area, and also saw the speed you were going on the speedometer. The speed you were going was faster than the limit allowed, so that's how she knew you were going too fast.
