A horse canters away from its trainer in a straight line, moving 43 m away in 9.3 s . It then turns abruptly and gallops halfway back in 1.9 s . |
Part A Calculate its average speed for the entire trip. Part B Calculate its average velocity for the entire trip, using "away from the trainer" as the positive direction. |
Homework Answers
Answer #1
Part A
Calculate its average speed for the entire trip.
Average speed = Total Distance/Total time
ANSWER: 
============================
Part B
Calculate its average velocity for the entire trip, using "away from the trainer" as the positive direction.
Average velocity= Total Displacement/Total time
In the case of displacement consider the direction.
