For area under the x-axis I got 34 so 34 + 16 = 50 m?
This is what I did: 12 x (8-5) x (1/2) = 18
area of rectangle: 1 x 12 = 12 - [(1/2) * 1 * 8] = 8
4 x (11 - 9) = 8
18 + 8 + 8 = 34
How do I calculate final displacement and the total distance traveled in the graph above.
I know displacement is independent of the pathway so the distance traveled on the last point is 44 m and the first point is 0 m.
I also know for distance that you have to calculate the area of the...
1. You are going toward home plate at speed of 5.9 m/s when you hit the dirt. You slide for 1.1 s just reaching the plate as you stop.
a)What is the magnitude and direction of your acceleration?
b) How far did you slide?I got 5.36 m/s^2 for the acceleration. Not sure if I did this right.
