Answer:

3: 0.44 m/s East + 0.33 m/s North

4: 0 m/s2

Step-by-step explanation:

3:

total distance = 5+3+1 = 9 km

so time = 9,000seconds

distance east = 4 km

distance north = 3 km

displacement = hypotenuse of 3 4 5 triangle = 5 km

speed east = 4 km/9 k seconds = .44444.... m/s

speed north = 3 km/9k seconds = .33333.... m/s

Answer: 0.44 m/s East + 0.33 m/s North

4:

No change in speed or direction = constant velocity = no acceleration
