Explanation:
We have,
Distance traveled in a circular track is 500 miles
The winning time was 3 hours and 13 minutes. It means time is 3.217 hours.
The driver's average speed is given by total distance divided by total time taken. Its formula can be written as :
At the end of the race, the driver reaches the point form where he has started. It means the displacement of the driver is equal to 0. Hence, driver's average velocity is equal to 0.
The correct answer is :
Unit vectors I and j along the x-axis and y-axis, respectively, define the Cartesian coordinate system. The radial unit vector r, which indicates the direction from the origin, and the unit vector t, which is orthogonal (perpendicular) to the radial direction, together create the polar coordinate system.
We can obtain the horizontal component by applying the trigonometric identity of Cos(Ф), and if we obtain the component on the x axle, such as 22000 (m)×Cos(51°) = x, we may determine that x = 13845.05 metres. We need to obtain the vector components because we already know the distance and the angle.
