Question

A particle moves in a straight line at a constant velocity of 30 m/s. What is its displacement between t = 0 and t = 5.0 s?

a) 1. 0 m
b) 2. 150 m
c) 3. 30 m
d) 4. 5.0 s

Answer 1

The displacement of the particle is 150 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The displacement of a particle moving in a straight line at a constant velocity can be calculated by multiplying the velocity by the time interval. In this case, the velocity is 30 m/s and the time interval is 5.0 s. So, the displacement is 30 m/s * 5.0 s = 150 m.
