1. Answer the following questions: (1+2+1) (a) State what is meant by a vector quantity and give one example.
(b) Fig. 1.1 shows a toy locomotive on a circular track of radius 0.60 m

At time t = 0, the locomotive is at point A. The locomotive travels at a constant speed round the track.
It takes 20 s to travel completely round the track.
(i) Calculate the speed of the locomotive.
(ii) Fig. below shows the variation of the magnitude of the displacement s of the locomotive from A with
time t

•• al and bert are jogging side-by-side on a trail in the woods at a speed of 0.75 m/s. suddenly al sees the end of the trail 35 m ahead and decides to speed up to reach it. he accelerates at a constant rate of 0.50 m/s2, while bert continues on at a constant speed. (a) how long does it take al to reach the end of the trail? (b) once he reaches the end of the trail, he immediately turns around and heads back along the trail with a constant speed of 0.85 m/s. how long does it take him to meet up with bert? (c) how far are they from the end of the trail when they meet?

Two charged particles, q1 and q2, are located on the x-axis, with q1 at the origin and q2 initially at x1 = 12.2 mm. in this configuration, q1 exerts a repulsive force of 2.62 µn on q2. particle q2 is then moved to x2 = 18.0 mm. what is the force (magnitude and direction) that q2 exerts on q1 at this new location? (give the magnitude in µn.)
