Astudent bikes to school by traveling first dn = 1.10miles north, then dw = 0.400miles west, and finally ds = 0.100miles south.

if a bird were to start out from the origin (where the student starts) and fly directly (in a straight line) to the school, what distance db would the bird cover?

you will now find the same quantity algebraically, without the need to use much geometry. take the north direction as the positive y direction and east as positive x. the origin is still where the student starts biking.
let d⃗ n be the displacement vector corresponding to the first leg of the student's trip. express d⃗ n in component form.

Amachinist turns the power on to a grinding wheel, at rest, at time t = 0 s. the wheel accelerates uniformly for 10 s and reaches the operating angular velocity of 96 rad/s. the wheel is run at that angular velocity for 40 s and then power is shut off. the wheel slows down uniformly at 1.5 rad/s2 until the wheel stops. in this situation, the time interval of deceleration is closest to:

On a frictionless air track, a blue glider with mass 0.200 kg is moving to the right with a speed of 8.00 m/s. it strikes a red glider that has mass 0.600 kg and that is initially at rest. after the collision, the blue glider is moving to the left with a speed of 3.00 m/s.(a) what are the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the red glider after the collision? (b) is this collision elastic?
