Answer:
0.0231 m/s
Explanation:
Given the question :
A small toddler is playing in his yard. Over the course of 29.01 s, he walks 2.099 m S before turning N and walking 1.429 m. What is his average velocity?
Distance walked south = 2.099 metre
Time taken = 29.01s
Distance walked north = 1.429 metre
Average Velocity = Displacement / time
The Displacement is hence,
(2.099 m - 1.429m) = 0.67m
Average Velocity = 0.67m / 29.01s
Average Velocity = 0.02309 m/s
Average Velocity = 0.0231 m/s
