Draw a graph of displacement (position) versus time that shows a person running away from the reference point at a constant speed of 3m/s for 30 seconds and then stops for 10 seconds and returns to the starting point at a constant speed of 1 m/s. Label your axis and indicate the required values in your graph. How many seconds pass from start to finish? *

In Figure 2.11b, the area under the velocitytime graph and between the vertical axis and time t (vertical dashed line) represents the displacement. As shown, this area consists of a rectangle and a triangle. (a) Compute their areas. (b) Explain how the sum of the two areas compares with the expression on the right-hand side of Equation 2.16.
Bacteria move back and forth using their flagella (structures that look like little tails). Speeds of up to 50m/s(50106m/s) have been observed. The total distance traveled by a bacterium is large for its size, whereas its displacement is small. Why is this?
. (a) Draw an accurate graph of the speed versus time for the train Problem 24. (b) Draw an accurate graph of the distance versus time for the train in Problem 24.
Hi I am in phyiscs I and it has the problem a runner ran the marathon (approx. 26.1) in 2 hours and 57 min. What was the average speed of the runner in m/s? I understand that I would have to divide the total distance by the total time, but I'm not sure how they changed the miles to meters. Please break it down so I can understand. I tried to solve it how you guys did it but I keep getting another answer. Thank you!
I don't understand how to do this. Now let's see what we can tell from an equation for position:x(t) = 6t^2 + 4.2t + 9What is the object's initial position? Assume each term has units of meters, and that time is in seconds
Explain the formula derivation of "Position as a function velocity and time". How the formula is derived? Just explain it using words and avoid citing example and writting too much number. Explain it comprehensiviley in your own words.
Dwight decides to race around the perimeter of the Scranton business parkin an effort to beat another employee’s best running time. Assuming heruns with an average velocity of 10 ft/s, and he completes 4 laps in 5minutes,a. What is the perimeter of the business park in feet?b. In meters?( 1 ft = 0.3048 m )
Plssss help, ignore the writing, Sketch a possible position vs. time graph showing the same motion. Explain why your graph is only one of many possible graphs.

An object is moving in the air (defying gravity) so that its height after t seconds is given by ℎ(t)=18sin(t)cos(t)+8t meters. (If you graph this function, you can see it's moving up and down, but going higher and higher as time goes on.) a) At what time, t, does the object first change direction from going up to going down? b) What is the acceleration (m/s^2) of the object at that same time?
If a man ran @ 3m/s for 10s and then -3m/s for 10s more.... A.What is the distance traveled? B. Average speed ? C. Displacement @ end of trip ? D. Average velocity and direction if any ? Can you show me how to solve this please. Thanks
Haley is driving down a straight highway at 67 mph. A construction sign warns that the speed limit will drop to 55 mph in 0.50 mi. What constant acceleration (in m/s2) will bring Haley to this lower speed in the distance available? Express your answer in meters per second squared.
