Arunner moves 2.88 m/s north. she accelerates at 0.350 m/s2 at -52.0 angle. at the point where she is running directly east, what is δx?

11.7 m

Explanation:

I assume north is the y direction and x is the east direction, so Δx refers to the displacement in the east direction.

First, find the time it takes for the velocity to change from directly north to directly east.

Given (in the y direction):

v₀ = 2.88 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = 0.350 m/s² sin(-52.0°) = -0.276 m/s²

Find: t

v = at + v₀

(0 m/s) = (-0.276 m/s²) t + (2.88 m/s)

t = 10.4 s

Given (in the x direction):

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 0.350 m/s² cos(-52.0°) = 0.215 m/s²

t = 10.4 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (10.4 s) + ½ (0.215 m/s²) (10.4 s)²

Δx = 11.7 m

answer: i'm not sure which is which for i get confused on it all the time but i can tell you that the answer lies with the convex and concave devices. i hope this you. have a good day and best of luck to you!
