A meteor streaking through the night sky is located with radar. At point its coordinates are (5.20 , 1.35), and 1.12 later its has moved to point with coordinates (6.24 , 0.925 ).
Find the component of its average velocity between A and B. Find the component of its average velocity between A and B. Find the magnitude of its average velocity between these two points. Find the direction of its average velocity between these two points.
you need units with those numbers, or nothing is going to help
km/s for the first 3 @JFraser and the last one degrees counterwise from axis
FIND THE DISPLACEMENT= R2 -R1
= (6.24 , 0.925 ) -(5.20 , 1.35)
=(1.04, -0.425)
so av velocity=(1.04/1.12, -0.425/1.12)
does it make sense?
yes thank you.
then u can find mag of av velocity and direction of av velocity
