Question
Part-1: Set the mans velocity to 2m/s, the initial position at -10 m, and acceleration remains at 0 m/s2. Click the play button and observe all graphs for 10 seconds. a. What is the position at t=0, 1, 2, 3, .....10 s?
From the stimulation I got
t(0)s=-10.0 m
t(1)s=-7.92 m
t(2)s=-6.00 m
t(3)s=-4.08 m
t(4)s=-2.08 m
t(5)s=-0.08 m
t(6)s=1.92 m
t(7)s=4.00 m
t(8)s=6.00 m
t(9)s=8.00 m
t(10)s=10.0 m
they dont look right to me, is there a formula i can check it with?
or would the answers be 10, 20, 30....etc.
Explanation / Answer
it will be t(0) = -10
t(1)=-8
t(2)=-6 and so on ..oncrements of 2 m ,because accelearation is 0
use this formula
s=ut +0.5at^2
as a = 0
so use s = -10+2t
