A person walks first at a constant speed of 4.90 m/s along a straight line from point circled A to point circled B and then back along the line from circled B to circled A at a constant speed of 2.90 m/s. Find the average Velocity for the time interval of 1.80s to 2.80s and also the average velocity for the time interval of 1.85s to 2.25s.

A particle moves along a straight line with an acceleration a=2v1/2m/s2, where v is in m/s. If s = 0, v = 1 m/s when t = 0, determine the time for the particle to achieve a velocity of 18 m/s. Also, find the displacement of particle when t = 1 s. Express your answer using three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Objects that move in a straight line with a constant speed—not speeding up or slowing down—have zero acceleration. We call this kind of motion: Uniform Motion. We can identify uniform motion when the object travels equal distance intervals in equal times. We can identify non-uniform motion, or accelerated motion, when the object travels equal distance intervals in unequal times. Finally, we have two types of non-uniform motion: motion with constant acceleration and motion with a non-constant (or changing) acceleration. Activity...
