Answer:
t = 30.1 sec
Explanation:
If the ant is moving at a constant speed, the velocity vector will have the same magnitude at any point, and can be decomposed in two vectors, along directions perpendicular each other.
If we choose these directions coincident with the long edge of the paper, and the other perpendicular to it, the components of the velocity vector, along these axes, can be calculated as the projections of this vector along these axes.
We are only interested in the component of the velocity across the paper, that can be calculated as follows:
vₓ = v* sin θ, where v is the magnitude of the velocity, and θ the angle that forms v with the long edge.
We know that v= 1.3 cm/s, and θ = 61º, so we can find vₓ as follows:
vₓ = 1.3 cm/s * sin 61º = 1.3 cm/s * 0.875 = 1.14 cm/s
Applying the definition of average velocity, we can solve for t:
t = =
⇒ t = 30.1 sec
