Straight Line Motion Questions Help

In summary, The conversation is about a homework assignment that requires the students to answer questions. The person asking for help is having trouble reading the thumbnails and asks for the questions to be transcribed. They also ask for help with question 10 and confirm their answers for questions 7, 8, and 9. There is a discussion about the correct method for solving question 9.

The thumbnails are barely legible. Please transcribe the specific questions for which you need help and your attempts at answering them.

Man005, perhaps you could start by explaining your thought process for question 10.
 
  • #4
um if you could check 9 and then through from 12-19 would be good
7 should be B
8 should be A
and 9 should be C
forgot to check that

um for 10? just made a triangle and found hypotenuse?

and 9 should be C

agreeded for 7 and 8, think again about 9..

hint - if you deduct a vector, it's the same as adding one of the opposite direction

hmm i did the same thing as the others (use the parallelogram method) and i got c
cant see what I've done wrong :S unless the 2 affects the method in some way
 

1. What is straight line motion?

Straight line motion is a type of motion in which an object moves in a single direction along a straight path with constant velocity. This means that the object does not change its speed or direction as it moves.

2. What are the key components of straight line motion?

The key components of straight line motion are distance, time, and speed. These three factors are used to calculate the motion of an object and determine its position at any given time.

3. How is the speed of an object calculated in straight line motion?

The speed of an object in straight line motion is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time it takes to travel that distance. The formula is speed = distance/time.

4. What is the difference between speed and velocity in straight line motion?

Speed and velocity may seem similar, but they have different meanings in physics. Speed is a measure of how fast an object is moving, while velocity is a measure of both speed and direction. In straight line motion, an object's velocity is constant if it is moving at a constant speed in a straight line.

5. How can we graph straight line motion?

Straight line motion can be graphed on a distance-time graph, where the distance traveled is plotted on the y-axis and the time is plotted on the x-axis. The slope of the line on the graph represents the speed of the object, with steeper slopes indicating higher speeds.
