An object is moving along a circular track of radius 7 m with constant speed 11 m/s. Its average velocity after 8 second of the start is

Respuesta :

Answer:

0 m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is displacement over time.

v_avg = Δx / Δt

Displacement is the distance between the start and the finish.

The circumference of the track is:

C = 2πr

C = 2π (7 m)

C ≈ 44 m

The distance covered by the object is:

d = vt

d = (11 m/s) (8 s)

d = 88 m

So the object travels 2 circumferences, meaning it ends back where it started.  Therefore, the displacement is 0 m, and the average velocity is 0 m/s.
