A man walks 30 m to the west than 5 m to the east in 45 seconds. A). what is his total distance walked?
B). What is his average velocity?

35 m

0.56 m/s west

Explanation:

A) Total distance is the length of the path taken.

30 m + 5 m = 35 m

B) Velocity is displacement over time.  Displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position.

If west is -x, and east is +x, then:

Δx = -30 m + 5 m

Δx = -25 m

v = Δx / t

v = -25 m / 45 s

v = -0.56 m/s

v = 0.56 m/s west

hello there!

your answer is a “generator”

a generator does not create energy but instead it transforms it.

it’s basically a motor working in reverse.

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
