Given that,

bug speed, v= 0.85 m/s

time, t =42 s

Final position of bug on meter stick was 27 cm

Starting position of bug on meter stick = ?

Since we know that,

s = vt

s= 0.85*42 = 35.7 cm

this is the distance covered by bug in the given time and velocity.

since the bug is moving in negative direction, starting point will be:

27.0 cm+ 35.7 cm = 62.7 cm

The bugs starting position on meter stick was 62.7 cm.

How does the mass affect the speed as it rolls down a slope?
VikaD [51]
As we use the Kinetic energy and the equation is 1/2mv^2, changing its mass will change its speed and its energy. So more mass, more speed more energy. also the gravitational potential energy; mass x gravity x height; more mass and more height more speed as it go down to the slope! Hope it helps!
