We looking for distance
1 answer:
Answer:
240 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Figure is attached.
The distance the particle travels is the area under the v-t graph over the time interval from 0 min to 4 min. The reason you can't just multiply velocity by time is that the velocity is changing at a constant rate over the given time interval (the line is going upward--the particls is speeding up).
What's the area under the graph?
The red outline forms a trapezoid. The area of a trapezoid is where the <em>b</em>'s are the lengths of the two parallel base and <em>h</em> is the height (the distance between the bases).
Reading the graph carefully (notice the scales!)...

Step-by-step explanation:
this idea is probably a good thing to have a solid understand of. That Cartesian (rect) is the x and y components, of the legs of a triangle and is a way to measure that part of the two leg of the triangle that is made up by those pieces.. while the polar system would measure the hypotenuse of that same triangle with the degrees as a way to place where that hypotenuses goes
the abs value of an imaginary number will give you that distance from the origin to the point.. if you are using that sqrt ( +
) to get the abs. this is the same as the magnitude and can represent a total force. The distance between the origin and the point is that idea of two points.. conveniently we used (0,0) the origin as one of the points.. the other is at the top of the line or the point given by the complex number
Hopefully that helps... :/
