D. Review your earlier interpretation of the speed for your small tape segment. (See section I.)
Is that interpretation valid for the entire motion that generated the tape?
Based on the speed for your piece of tape, could you successfully predict how far the object would move in:
How can you modify the interpretation of the speed so that it applies even to motion with varying speed?
What name is given to a speed that is interpreted in this way?

- Solve it correctly please. Iarrow_forwardA. From the perspective of point x, vector a and vector b are approaching with around the same speed. From Joseph's perspective, the two are walking with around the same speed. Determine if vector a is approaching with the same speed, twice the speed, or half the speed from the perspective of vector b. Explain.B. Vectors x and y are moving with uniform velocities. If the image below is t = 0, how long will it take (in seconds) for vector x to be in the same position with vector y? How far should vector x have traveled (in meters) by the time it has overtaken the position of vector y? Show proper solution.arrow_forwardYou stand on the top of a tall building and throw a baseball directly downwards. When the baseball leaves your hand, it has a speed of 6 m/s. (Assume there is no air resistance for this problem) a. Four seconds after you throw it, what is the acceleration of the baseball? Show your work and explain your steps. b. Four seconds after you throw it, what is the velocity of the baseball? Show your work and explain your steps.arrow_forward
