Textbook QuestionA dog running in an open field has components of velocity υx = 2.6 m/s and υy = −1.8 m/s at t1 = 10.0 s. For the time interval from t1 = 10.0 s to t2 = 20.0 s, the average acceleration of the dog has magnitude 0.45 m/s2 and direction 31.0° measured from the +x–axis toward the +y–axis. At t2 = 20.0 s, (a) what are the x- and y-components of the dog's velocity?1805views

Textbook Question(II) An ant walks on a piece of graph paper straight along the 𝓍 axis a distance of 10.0 cm in 2.40 s. It then turns left 40.0° and walks in a straight line another 10.0 cm in 1.80 s. Finally, it turns another 70.0° to the left and walks another 10.0 cm in 1.55 s. Determine(b) its magnitude and direction.166views
