Part 1: Calculate the distance traveled at \(20 \, \text{m/s}\) for 5 minutes
| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \( t_1 = 5 \, \text{minutes} = 300 \, \text{seconds} \) | Convert the time from minutes to seconds since the speed is given in meters per second. |
| 2 | \( v_1 = 20 \, \text{m/s} \) | The initial speed of the car is \(20 \, \text{m/s}\). |
| 3 | \( \Delta x_1 = v_1 \cdot t_1 \) | Use the formula for distance: \( \Delta x = v \cdot t \). |
| 4 | \( \Delta x_1 = 20 \, \text{m/s} \cdot 300 \, \text{s} = 6000 \, \text{m} \) | Calculate the distance traveled at the initial speed. |
Part 2: Calculate the distance traveled at \(40 \, \text{m/s}\) for an additional 2 km
| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \( \Delta x_2 = 2 \, \text{km} = 2000 \, \text{m} \) | Convert the distance from kilometers to meters. |
| 2 | \( v_2 = 40 \, \text{m/s} \) | The speed of the car in the second part of the trip is \(40 \, \text{m/s}\). |
| 3 | \( t_2 = \frac{\Delta x_2}{v_2} \) | Use the formula for time: \( t = \frac{\Delta x}{v} \). |
| 4 | \( t_2 = \frac{2000 \, \text{m}}{40 \, \text{m/s}} = 50 \, \text{s} \) | Calculate the time taken to travel the additional distance. |
Part 3: Calculate the total distance and total time of travel
| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \( \Delta x_{\text{total}} = \Delta x_1 + \Delta x_2 \) | The total distance is the sum of the distances traveled in each part of the trip found in part 1 and 2. |
| 2 | \( \Delta x_{\text{total}} = 6000 \, \text{m} + 2000 \, \text{m} = 8000 \, \text{m} \) | Calculate the total distance traveled. |
| 3 | \( t_{\text{total}} = t_1 + t_2 \) | The total time is the sum of the times taken in each part of the trip. |
| 4 | \( t_{\text{total}} = 300 \, \text{s} + 50 \, \text{s} = 350 \, \text{s} \) | Calculate the total time of travel. |
Answer:
| Total Distance | Total Time |
|---|---|
| \( \boxed{8000 \, \text{m}} \) | \( \boxed{350 \, \text{s}} \) |
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
The graph above represents the motion of an object traveling in a straight line as a function of time. What is the average speed of the object during the first four seconds? Note the displacemnt from 0 to 4 seconds is 2 meters
A rock is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of \( 20 \, \text{m/s} \) from the edge of a bridge \( 42 \, \text{m} \) above a river.
A cart starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 4.0 m/s2 for 5.0 s. It next maintains the velocity it has reached for 10 s. Then it slows down at a steady rate of 2.0 m/s2 for 4.0 s. What is the final speed of the car?
A horizontal 300 N force pushes a 40 kg object across a horizontal 10 meter frictionless surface. After this, the block slides up a 20° incline. Assuming the incline has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.4, how far along the incline with the object slide?
In which of the following is the rate of change of the particle’s momentum zero?
Total distance traveled: \( 8,000 \, \text{m} \)
Total time of travel: \( 350 \, \text{s} \)

General Metric Conversion Chart
Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
