Question

Trying to figure out the average velocity. Teacher walks 10m North, 3m East. and 6m South in 10 seconds. I got 0.7 m/s. Need Help!!!

Answer 1

Can you find x? Hint: the 10m side is equal to 6m + x

Then use pythagoras to find d.

Answer 2

x=4m
d= 3^2+4^2
d=9+16
d=√25
d=5

Answer 3

Correct, and that d is displacement. Now use velocity = displacement/time

Answer 4

V= 5/10
v=-.5 m/s
Thank you!!!!

Answer 5

Welcome :)
