Question

Consult Multiple-Concept Example 5 in preparation for this problem. The velocity of a diver just before hitting the water is -10.5 m/s, where the minus sign indicates that her motion is directly downward. What is her displacement during the last 1.17 s of the dive?

Answer 1

Time (- 10.5 m/s = displacement / 1.17 s)

so, 1.17 s moves to the other side, so the equation would look like

(- 10.5 m/s) (1.17 s) = - 12.285

hope this helps
