A soccer ball is kicked at an angle of 60 degrees. The X component of the ball's velocity is 5 m/s. What is the velocity of the ball? Include a drawing and all steps.
The bacterium Escherichia coli (or E. coli) is a single-celled
organism that lives in the gut of healthy humans and
animals. When grown in a uniform medium rich in salts and
amino acids, these bacteria swim along zig-zag paths at a
constant speed of 20 μm/s. The figure shows the
trajectory of an E. coli as it moves from point A to point E.
Each segment of the motion can be identified by two letters,
such as segment BC. (Figure 1)
