The position of an object moving along x-axis is given by x a bt = + where a m = 8.5 ,1b ms 2.5 −= and t is measured in seconds. What is its velocity att = 0 s and t s = 2.0 . |

Answer» Answer: 15 m/s Explanation: Position is given as x=a+bt 2 =8.5+2.5t 2
Position at t=2 s, x 2
=8.5+2.5(2) 2 =18.5 m Position at t=4 s, x 1
=8.5+2.5(4) 2 =48.5 m Displacement S=x 2
−x 1
=48.5−18.5=30 m Time TAKEN t=4−2=2 s Average VELOCITY V avg
= t S
= 2 30
=15 m/s |
