Explain why we only consider one dimensional motion when using a single motion sensor. Based on the definition of velocity, describe what you should observe in the velocity vs. time graph if you were measuring a stationary, distant object and you suddenly slid and object into the beam from the side [hint: think about the behavior of the position graph in this case.]

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?
RECTILINEAR MOTION IN STRAIGHT LINE how do we know the time with the initial velocity of 1m/s in this problem? Should i assume that the time in that moment was 0? or i should include the time 2sec in answering all the expressions? Please I need an answer from an expert so i should be sure about my analyzation thankyouuu!
Consider the velocity vs. time graph of a person in an elevator shown in Suppose the elevator is initially at rest.It then accelerates for 3 seconds, maintains that velocity for 15 seconds, then decelerates for 5 seconds until it stops. Theacceleration for the entire trip is not constant so we cannot use the equations of motion from Motion Equations for ConstantAcceleration in One Dimension for the complete trip. (We could, however, use them in the three individual sections whereacceleration is a constant.) Sketch graphs of (a) position vs. time and (b) acceleration vs. time for this trip.
Two cars A and B moving at 20kph and 30kph respectively are 300km apart.They start moving toward each other at 1:00 PM. At what time will they meet? Draw a graph
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
1. Karlo is driving his padyak 15m/s when he noticed that he is approaching a stalled tricycle that is approximately 35m away. He steps on the breaks and the padyak stops 1.0m away from the stalled tricycle. At what rate did the padyak slow down? Assume that Karlo's reaction time is 2.0s. Reaction time is the time it takes a person to notice, think, and act in response to a given situation..
Hi I am in physics 1 and I need help with this problem. It saids a boy runs in an open field. He runs 233m due north in 77 seconds, turns 90 degrees to his left and runs 178m in 93 seconds. Sketch a map of his motion and find the following quantities of his motion during this period from starting time to final time a) Map of his motion b) The total distance he runs (233m + 178m= 411m) c) The displacement from starting position to final position. What I have thus far is I got c=sqrt (233)^2+(178)^2=293m. Would I subtract this number from the total distance? Please includes detailed steps of how to solve this
Can someone give me feed back on the answers to this question. Is the scaling and representation accurate? Also, can some explain to me how the position-time graph can have a position starting at 2m.
Match the given velocity vs time graph to the correct position vs time graph that represents the same motion. Don’t worry about matching exact times, just look for the right pattern.In a couple sentences or bullet points, describe a physical scenario for the motion (for example, using the motion of a person walking or a car driving).
By looking Figure 1, how can we say about velocity change with respect to time for every point (a, b, c, d, e)? Which point has the biggest instantaneous velocity? You should show the reason why you are using any parameter in the calculations.
Emmy is standing on a moving sidewalk that moves at +2 m/s. Suddenly, she realizes she might miss her flight, so begins to speed up, but then she hears over the PA system that her filght is delayed. The acceleration versus time graph shows Emmy's acceleration during the 5 s time interval in which all of the events occur. In the velocity versus time graph, construct a plot of Emmy's velocity over this same time period. Assuming all the values given are exact, what is Emmy's velocity at a time of 3.57 s ? Enter your answer to at least three significant digits.
