That is a vector. It is a combination of direction and velocity. (You can think of Vector from Despicable Me to help you remember the term)

Answer:
It helps the answer look clean. It also makes the work easier to work with.
Explanation:
Instead of writing a lot of zeros, all you have to do is add exponents to the number to show how much the decimal moved.
Potassium is in the most reactive group of elements, the alkali metals, but it's not the most reactive metal within the group. The alkali metals, Group 1A, are the most reactive metals because they have one valence or outer electron. They lose this electron very easily, forming ions with a charge of +1.
Answer:
(a) 1.414 km
(b) 1.06 m/s
Explanation:
(a) For John:
Distance = 1 km north and then 1 km east
Speed = 1.5 m/s
total distance traveled = 1 + 1 = 2 km = 2000 m
Time taken to travel = Distance / speed
t = 2000 / 1.5 = 1333.3 seconds
Displacement =
(b) For jane :
Time is same as john = 1333.33 second
Distance = 1.414 km = 1414 m
Speed = distance / time = 1414 / 1333.33 = 1.06 m/s
Answer:
The rate of change of the distance between the helicopter and yourself (in ft/s) after 5 s is
ft/ sec
Explanation:
Given:
h(t) = 25 ft/sec
x(t) = 10 ft/ sec
h(5) = 25 ft/sec . 5 = 125 ft
x(5) = 10 ft/sec . 5 = 50 ft
Now we can calculate the distance between the person and the helicopter by using the Pythagorean theorem

Lets find the derivative of distance with respect to time

Substituting the values of h(t) and x(t) and simplifying we get,



=
=
ft / sec
