A train leaving Albuquerque travels 293 miles, due east, to Amarillo. The train spends a couple of days at the station in Amarillo and then heads back west 107 miles where it stops in Tucumcari. Suppose the positive x direction points to the east and Albuquerque is at the origin of this axis. a. What is the total distance traveled by the train from Albuquerque to Tucumcari? b. What is the displacement of the train for the entire journey? Give both answers in appropriate SI units.
Two birds begin next to each other and then fly through the air at the same elevation above level ground at 22.5 m/s. One flies northeast, and the other flies northwest. After flying for 10.5 s, what is the distance between them? Ignore the curvature of the Earth.
An airplane maintains a speed of 630 km/h relative to the air it is flying through as it makes a trip to a city 750 km away to the north. (a) What time interval is required for the trip if the plane flies through a head-wind blowing at 35.0 km/h toward the south? (b) What time interval is required if there is a tailwind with the same speed? (c) What time interval is required if there is a crosswind blowing at 35.0 km/h to the east relative to the ground?
While strolling downtown on a Saturday Afternoon, you stumble across an old car show. As you are walking along an alley toward a main street, you glimpse a particularly stylish Alpha Romeo pass by. Tall buildings on either side of the alley obscure your view, so you see the car only as it passes between the buildings. Thinking back to your physics class, you realize that you can calculate the cars acceleration. You estimate the width of the alleyway between the two buildings to be 4 m. The car was in view for 0.5 s. You also heard the engine rev when the car started from a red light, so you know the Alpha Romeo started from rest 2 s before you first saw it. Find the magnitude of its acceleration.
(a) If AF=BF , can we conclude A=B ? (b) If AF=BF , can we conclude A=B ? (c) If FA=BF , can we conclude A=B ? Why or why not?
You drive 7.50 km in a straight line in a direction 25° East of North. a. Find the distances (in km) you would have to drive straight East and then straight North to arrive at the same point. (This is equivalent to finding the components of the displacement along the East and North directions.) b. Show that you still arrive at the same point if the East and North legs are reversed in order.
A student travels along some path. Which of the following statements is true about the total distance travelled by the student and the magnitude of the displacement from their starting position to their ending position? The total distance travelled can be either larger or smaller or equal to the magnitude of the displacement. O The total distance traveled must always be equal to the magnitude of the displacement. O The total distance traveled must be smaller than or equal to the magnitude of the displacement. O The total distance travelled must be larger than or equal to the magnitude of the displacement.
