Answer:
Position-Time graphs display the motion of a object by showing the changes of velocity with respect to time.
The motion of a car on a position-time graph that is represented with a horizontal line indicates that the car has stopped moving.
A straight line with a positive slope indicates that the car is moving at a constant velocity, and thus the slope is constant. On the other hand, a curve with a changing slope, shows that the velocity is changing.
Answer:
7.1 m/s
Explanation:
First, find the time it takes for the fish to reach the water.
Given in the y direction:
Δy = 6.1 m
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s²
Find: t
Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²
6.1 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²
t = 1.12 s
Next, find the velocity needed to travel 7.9 m in that time.
Given in the x direction:
Δx = 7.9 m
a = 0 m/s²
t = 1.12 s
Find: v₀
Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²
7.9 m = v₀ (1.12 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.12 s)²
v₀ = 7.1 m/s
Before anyone can help you, if this is a multiple choice question you must provide the answers.<span />
My inference is that the water molecules are moving up and down. I don't know for sure but i'm usually correct.
