the speed of an object is measured as 2.52 m/s and it moves in a straight line at that speed for t = 0.58 s. compute the displacement of the object, including the correct uncertainty
Added by Aaron G.
Step 1
The displacement \( d \) of an object moving at a constant speed can be calculated using the formula: \[ d = v \times t \] where \( v \) is the speed and \( t \) is the time. Show more…

An object moves with a speed of $v(t) \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ along the s-axis. Find the displacement and the distance travelled by the object during the given time interval. $$v(t)=2 t-4 ; 0 \leqslant t \leqslant 6$$

Modelling linear motion
The velocity function (in meters per second) is given for a particle moving along a line: v(t) = t^2 - 2t - 24, 1 ≤ t ≤ 7. (a) Find the displacement. (b) Find the distance traveled by the particle during the given time interval.
