| 1 | \(\Delta x_1 = v \cdot t\) | Calculate the displacement during the first 1 second. The body moves at a constant speed \(v = 24 \, \text{m/s}\). |
| 2 | \(\Delta x_1 = 24 \, \text{m/s} \times 1 \, \text{s} = 24 \, \text{m}\) | Substitute \(v = 24 \, \text{m/s}\) and \(t = 1 \, \text{s}\). |
| 3 | \(v_i = 24 \, \text{m/s}\) | The body continues with initial velocity \(24 \, \text{m/s}\) at \(t = 1 \, \text{s}\), just before deceleration starts. |
| 4 | \(v_x = v_i + a \cdot \Delta t\) | Calculate the final velocity after 10 seconds of acceleration in the negative \(x\) direction. The acceleration \(a = -6 \, \text{m/s}^2\). |
| 5 | \(v_x = 24 \, \text{m/s} + (-6 \, \text{m/s}^2 \cdot 10 \, \text{s}) = 24 \, \text{m/s} – 60 \, \text{m/s} = -36 \, \text{m/s}\) | Substitute \(v_i = 24 \, \text{m/s}\), \(a = -6 \, \text{m/s}^2\), and \(\Delta t = 10 \, \text{s}\). |
| 6 | \(\Delta x_2 = v_i \cdot \Delta t + \frac{1}{2} a \cdot \Delta t^2\) | Calculate the displacement during the 10-second interval of deceleration. |
| 7 | \(\Delta x_2 = 24 \, \text{m/s} \cdot 10 \, \text{s} + \frac{1}{2} (-6 \, \text{m/s}^2) \cdot (10 \, \text{s})^2\) | Substitute \(v_i = 24 \, \text{m/s}\), \(a = -6 \, \text{m/s}^2\), and \(\Delta t = 10 \, \text{s}\). |
| 8 | \(\Delta x_2 = 240 \, \text{m} – 300 \, \text{m} = -60 \, \text{m}\) | Simplify the equation to find the displacement during the deceleration period. |
| 9 | \Delta x = \Delta x_1 + \Delta x_2 | Total displacement is the sum of displacements during different time periods. |
| 10 | \(\Delta x = 24 \, \text{m} + (-60 \, \text{m}) = -36 \, \text{m}\) | Substitute \(\Delta x_1 = 24 \, \text{m}\) and \(\Delta x_2 = -60 \, \text{m}\). Therefore, the position of the body at \(t = 11 \, \text{seconds}\) is \(\boxed{-36 \, \text{m}}\). |
The correct answer is (c) \(- 36 \, \text{m}\).
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
A 135.0 N force is applied to a 30.0 kg box at 42 degree angle to the horizontal. If the force of friction is 85.0, what is the net force and acceleration? If the object starts from rest, how far has it traveled in 3.3 sec?
You are standing on a bathroom scale in an elevator. The elevator starts from rest on the first floor and accelerates up to the third floor, 12 meters above, in a time of 6 seconds. The scale reads 800N. What is the mass of the person?
Police officers have measured the length of a car’s tire skid marks to be \( 23 \, \text{m} \). This particular car is known to decelerate at a constant \( 7.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). What was the car’s initial velocity?

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]
