A dog runs 300m North and sees the dog catcher and runs 120 m south .Whats the dogs displacement. The same jogger runs 3 miles around the track, starting and finishing in the same time after completing exactly 12 laps. What is the average velocity now

1. 180 m

2. 1.5 miles/hour

3. 0 m/s

Explanation:

The complete question is

A dog runs 300 m North and sees the dog catcher and runs 120 m south Whats the dogs displacement.

A jogger runs north for 3.0 miles. If this took 2.0 hours, what is the jogger’s average velocity in miles per hour?

The same jogger runs 3.0 miles on the track, starting and finishing his run after completing exactly 12 laps around the track. What is his average velocity?

1. Displacement is how far the dog moves from the original starting point.

If the dog runs 300 m north, and then 120 m south, then the displacement from the starting point will be

displacement = 300 - 120 = 180 m

2. Displacement of the jogger = 3 miles

Time taken by the jogger = 2 hours

velocity of the jogger = ?

Velocity is = displacement/time

velocity = 3/2 = 1.5 miles/hour

3. velocity = displacement/time

if the jogger completes exactly 12 laps around the track, then the jogger will return to the starting point. This means that the jogger's displacement from the starting point is 0 miles

Jogger's velocity will therefore be = 0 m/s

explanation:

a fuel engine ( known as a gasoline engine in american english )is an internal combustion engine with spark ignition, designed to run on petrol (gasoline) and similar volatile fuels.
