The graph below shows the position of an ant as it crawls over a flat picnic blanket. The total time for the ant to go from the

Mice21 [21]

The average speed of the ant is 0.276 cm/s and the average velocity is 0.136 cm/s.

The correct answer is option D.

In the given graph, we can deduce the following;

the total time of the motion, = 1 mins + 45 s = 60 s + 45 s = 105 s

The average speed of the ant is calculated as;

$average \ speed = \frac{total \ distance }{total \ time }$

The total distance from the graph is calculated as follows;

first horizontal distance from 2 cm to 8 cm = 8 - 2 = 6 cm

first upward distance from 3 cm to 5 cm = 5 - 3 = 2 cm

second horizontal distance from 8 cm to 6 cm = 8 - 6 = 2 cm

second upward distance from 5 cm to 12 cm = 12 - 5 = 7 cm

third horizontal distance from 6 cm to 13 cm = 13 - 6 = 7 cm

fourth downward distance from 12 cm to 9 cm = 3 cm

final horizontal distance from 13 cm to 15 cm = 2cm

The total distance = (6 + 2 + 2 + 7 + 7 + 3 + 2) cm = 29 cm

$average \ speed = \frac{total \ distance }{total \ time } = \frac{29 \ cm}{105 \ s} = 0.276 \ cm/s$

The average velocity is calculated as the change in displacement per change in time.

The displacement is the shortest distance between the start and end positions.

This shortest distance is the straight line connecting the start and end position. Call this line P

From the end position at x = 15 cm, draw a vertical line from y = 9 cm, to y = 3 cm. The displacement = 9 cm - 3 cm = 6 cm

Also, draw a horizontal line from start at x = 2 cm to x = 15 cm. The displacement = 15 cm - 2 cm = 13 cm

Notice, you have a right triangle, now calculate the length of line P.

start -------------13 cm------------

Use Pythagoras theorem to solve for P.

$P^2 = 6^2 + 13^2\\\\P^2 = 36 + 169\\\\P^2 = 205\\\\P= \sqrt{205} \\\\P = 14.318 \ cm$

The average velocity of the ant is calculated as;

$average \ velocity= \frac{\Delta displacemnt }{total\ time }= \frac{14.318 \ cm}{105 \ s} = 0.136 \ cm/s \\\\$

Thus, the average speed of the ant is 0.276 cm/s and the average velocity is 0.136 cm/s.

What is the law of conservation of energy?

charle [14.2K]

The law of conservation of energy, a fundamental concept of physics, states that the total amount of energy remains constant in an isolated system. It implies that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be change from one form to another.

A graph shows how the temperature of a substance changes as energy is added steadily over time.

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

A flat, horizontal line

Explanation:

A flat, horizontal line indicates a phase change.

The temperature does not increase because the added heat goes into converting one phase into another.

A is wrong. A downward-sloping line indicates that the temperature is decreasing with time.

C is wrong. An upward-sloping line indicates that the temperature is increasing with time.
