To answer this question we need to know two things: the distance around Pluto’s equator and the crawling speed of a mauve caterpillar. Since we are provided with the radius of Pluto in the question, we can calculate the distance via the formula 2ˇr. The crawling speed of a mauve caterpillar, however, is considerably more di cult to nd.
Let’s call this the x-axis, and represent different locations on the x-axis using variables such as and , as in Figure 2.1. Figure 2.1: Positions = +3 m and = –2 m, where the + and – signs indicate the direction. If an object moves from one position to another we say it experiences a displacement.
1. This book is more than just a collection of problems. It introduces theory along the way but places the theory immediately in the context of problems. This approach teaches you how to apply concepts to solving problems. 2. We take the time to explain the solutions to the problems thoroughly. We point out
Problems with detailed solutions on displacement and distance of moving objects. Problem 1. An object moves from point A to point B to point C, then back to point B and then to point C along the line shown in the figure below. a) Find the distance covered by the moving object. b) Find the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the object.
distance covered in each interval and the total distance covered by two methods: 1) Calculation of the area under the line R( P); 2) Using the formula for the distance in the motion with constant acceleration.
Define distance and displacement, and distinguish between the two; Solve problems involving distance and displacement
Compute average velocity, displacement or time step by step using a single formula: average velocity, 2 miles over 20 minutes. distance with an average velocity of 60mph in 90 seconds. 120 miles at an average velocity of 60mph. Derive the solution for projectile motion: projectile v=10 meters/second, angle = 30°.
