Clutch a cart starts at x = 2.0 m and travels towards the origin with a constant speed of 2.0 m/s. what is it the exact cart position (in m) 2.0 seconds later?

Sagot :

When the cart travels towards the origin, the magnitude of its exact position reduces with time.

The cart will be at -2 m (origin) 2s later.

What is it the exact cart position (in m) 2.0 seconds later?

When the cart travels towards the origin, the magnitude of its exact position reduces with time.

The formula of speed is given as

S = d/t ................. (1)

Where S = speed of the cart,

d = distance covered by the cart over a certain time.

t = time taken to cover the distance.

Where d the subject of the equation,

d = St ................. (2)

Given: S = 2.0 m/s, t = 2.0 s

Substitute into (2)

d = 2(2)

d = 4 m.

From the above, the cart covered a distance of 4 m in 2s.

The exact position of the cart = Initial position - distance covered

x' = x - d ............ (3)

Where x' = exact position of the cart 2s later,

x = initial position of the cart, and

d = distance covered by the cart in 2.0 s

Given: x = 2.0 m, d = 4 m.

Substitute into (3)

x' = 2.0 - 4

x' = -2 m.

Therefore the cart will be at -2 m (origin) 2s later.
