Carsten is walking down the street while maintaining a constant velocity of 5.0 m/s west. At time t = 0.0 s, Carsten is 250 m west of point A. What is his displacement from the starting position at 60.0 s? * Answer Format: # units direction

550 meters west

Explanation:

Givens: Inital velocity/vi= 5.0m/s, time/t=60.0s, acceleration/a= 0 because a constant velocity means 0 acceleration, inital position/xi=250m

Unknown: final position/xf=?

Formula: xf=xi+vi(t)+1/2at^2

xf=250m+5.0m/s(60.0s)+1/2(0)(60.0s)^2

xf=250m+300m

xf=550m west

its still west because he never chhanged direction therefore his postion kept increasing.
