A bus driver heads south with a steady speed of v1 = 20.0 m/s for t1 = 3.00 min, then makes a right turn and travels at v2 = 25.0 m/s for t2 = 3.00 min, and then drives northwest at v3 = 30.0 m/s for t3 = 1.00 min. For this 7.00-min trip, calculate the following. Assume +x is in the eastward direction. A) total vector displacement (Enter the magnitude in m and the direction in degrees south of west.) B) average speed (in m/s) C) Average velocity (Enter the magnitude in m/s and the direction in degrees south of west.)

Question

A bus driver heads south with a steady speed of 

v1 = 20.0 m/s

 for 

t1 = 3.00 min,

 then makes a right turn and travels at 

v2 = 25.0 m/s

 for 

t2 = 3.00 min,

 and then drives northwest at 

v3 = 30.0 m/s

 for 

t3 = 1.00 min.

 For this 7.00-min trip, calculate the following. Assume +x is in the eastward direction.

A) total vector displacement (Enter the magnitude in m and the direction in degrees south of west.) 

B) average speed (in m/s)

C) Average velocity (Enter the magnitude in m/s and the direction in degrees south of west.)
