Question

Determine the magnitude of the displacement (in meters) of an object which ... .

  1. moves from Hither to Yon (with an average speed of 28.0 m/s) and then back to Hither (with an average speed of 28.0 m/s) if both the forward and the return trip take 46 minutes each.
  2. moves at a constant speed of 8.30 m/s in a straight line for 15.0 seconds.
  3. decelerates at a rate of -4.35 m/s/s from a speed of 38.1 m/s to a speed of 17.6 m/s
  4. accelerates from rest at a rate of 3.67 m/s2 for 12.1 seconds
  5. is moving at 12.2 m/s and then accelerates at a rate of +1.88 m/s2 for 17.0 seconds
