Question

Please help!! The graph in the figure shows the position of a particle as it travels along the x-axis. What is the magnitude of the average speed of the particle between t = 1.0 s and t = 4.0 s?

Answer 1

Answer:

C = 0.67

Explanation:

Average velocity = the change in x over the change in time.

The change in x here is x(4) - x(1) which is simply 2-0 = 2.

The change in time is 4 - 1  = 3.

Since Average velocity is change in x over change in time, it equals 2/3 = 0.67
