A particle moves along the x axis beginning at x = −2 m at time zero. The particle moves forward at speed 4 m/s for 3 seconds, then backward at 3 m/s for 2 seconds, then forward again at 1 m/s for 3 seconds. Draw a position vs. time graph for this motion. Draw a velocity vs. time graph for the same motion.

- The strategy to use when calculating the force exerted by a set of several point charges is to find first the forces exerted by each of the point charges individually. The force exerted by the entire set of charge is the net force resulting from the forces exerted by the individual charges. The forces from the individual charges in this problem are shown in the diagram below. F12 191 0.100 m FR F13 93 0.316 m so the magnitude of this repulsive force is given by the following equation %3D The charge q, exerts a repulsive force F, 2 on q, as shown in the diagram.

It hits the ground at the base of the cliff 6.0 s later. Create a VELOCITY-TIME graph that represents this scenario. You may assume that the acceleration of the textbook is -9.81 m/s². Use the graph to determine a) the height of the cliff. b) the speed of the book when it impacts the ground. DO NOT use kinematics formulas to solve this problem. This task is assessing your understanding of GRAPHING to represent accelerate motion.arrow_forward
