Answer:
Time, t = 12 minutes
Explanation:
It is given that,
A cyclist rides 16.0 km east, then 8.0 km west, then 8.0 km east, then 32.0 km west, and finally 11.2 km east. Let west direction is negative and east direction is positive. The displacement of the cyclist is :
d = 4800 m
Let us assumed that the average speed of the cyclist is, v = 24 km/h = 6.66667 m/s
Let t is the time taken by the cyclist to complete the trip. The velocity of an object is given by :
t = 719.99 seconds
t = 720 seconds
or
t = 12 minutes
So, the time taken by the cyclist to complete the trip is 12 minutes. Yes, the time taken by the cyclist to complete the trip is reasonable. Hence, this is the required solution.
Explanation:
Starting position at x = 16m
Ending position at x = -25m
Time of flight = 4s
Unknown:
Distance flown = ?
Displacement = ?
Speed = ?
Velocity = ?
Solution:
To find the distance flown, we should understand that the body is moving on the x - plane;
So distance = 16 + 25 = 41m
Displacement is 41m to the left or -x axis
Speed is the distance divided by the time taken;
Speed = =
= 10.25m/s
Velocity is 10.25m/s along -x axis
