From $t=0$ to $t=5.00 \mathrm{~min}$, a man stands still, and from $t=5.00$ min to $t=10.0$ min, he walks briskly in a straight line at a constant speed of $2.20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. What are (a) his average velocity $v_{\text {avg }}$ and (b) his average acceleration $a_{\text {avg }}$ in the time interval $2.00$ min to $8.00 \mathrm{~min} ?$ What are (c) $v_{\text {avg }}$ and (d) $a_{\text {avg }}$ in the time interval $3.00$ min to $9.00$ min? (e) Sketch $x$ versus $t$ and $v$ versus $t$, and indicate how the answers to (a) through (d) can be obtained from the graphs.

Step 1
- From \( t = 0 \) to \( t = 5.00 \) min, the man stands still, so his velocity is \( 0 \, \text{m/s} \). - From \( t = 5.00 \) min to \( t = 10.0 \) min, he walks at a constant speed of \( 2.20 \, \text{m/s} \). Show more…

From $t=0$ to $t=5.00 \mathrm{~min},$ a man stands still, and from $t=5.00 \mathrm{~min}$ to $t=10.0 \mathrm{~min},$ he walks briskly in a straight line at a constant speed of $2.20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. What are (a) his average velocity $v_{\text {arg }}$ and (b) his average acceleration $a_{\mathrm{my}}$ in the time interval $2.00 \mathrm{~min}$ to to 9.00 min? (e) Sketch $x$ versus $f$ and $v$ versus $t,$ and indicate how the answers to (a) through (d) can be obtained from the graphs.

Position, Displacement, and Average Velocity The position of an object moving along an $x$ axis is given by $x=3 t-4 t^{2}+t^{3},$ where $x$ is in meters and $t$ in seconds. Find the position of the object at the following values of $t :$ (a) 1 s, ( b ) 2 s, (c) 3 s, and (d) 4 s, (e) What is the object's displacement between $t=0$ and $t=4 \mathrm{s} ?$ (f) What is its average velocity for the time interval from $t=2 \mathrm{s}$ to $t=4 \mathrm{s} (\mathrm{g})$ Graph $x$ versus $t$ for $0 \leq t \leq 4 \mathrm{s}$ and indicate how the answer for (f) can be found on the graph.
