Question

Consider the following transshipment network for finding the shortest route from node 1 to node 7.

a) Formulate a linear programming model of the problem. (Express your answers using the answer)

Answer 1

The terms for the descriptions are: optimal path, vector, acceleration, origin, displacement, and instantaneous velocity.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The shortest path from start to finish is called the optimal path.

b. A physical quantity with magnitude and direction is called a vector.

c. The quantity defined as a change in velocity over a time period is called acceleration.

d. The point from where you take measurements is called the origin.

e. The distance covered in a time interval is called displacement.

f. The velocity at a specific instant in time is called instantaneous velocity.
