When the forces acting on a body are balanced, their effect
\on the body's motion is the same as if no forces at all are
acting on it, and its velocity can't change. It continues moving
in a straight line at constant speed (which may be zero).
Answer:
small car since they weigh less than a bus
Explanation:
Answer:
1.4 m/s
Explanation:
From the question given above, we obtained the following data:
Initial Displacement (d1) = 0.9 m
Final Displacement (d2) = 1.6 m
Initial time (t1) = 1.5 secs
Final time (t2) = 2 secs
Velocity (v) =..?
The velocity of an object can be defined as the rate of change of the displacement of the object with time. Mathematically, it can be expressed as follow:
Velocity = change of displacement /time
v = Δd / Δt
Thus, with the above formula, we can obtain the velocity of the car as follow:
Initial Displacement (d1) = 0.9 m
Final Displacement (d2) = 1.6 m
Change in displacement (Δd) = d2 – d1 = 1.6 – 0.9
= 0.7 m
Initial time (t1) = 1.5 secs
Final time (t2) = 2 secs
Change in time (Δt) = t2 – t1
= 2 – 1.5
= 0.5 s
Velocity (v) =..?
v = Δd / Δt
v = 0.7/0.5
v = 1.4 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the car is 1.4 m/s
