HSSLive Plus One


Solution:
The distance is deDned as a scalar quantity which is equal to how much ground that an HSSLive Plus Two
object covered during its overall motion. The displacement is a vector quantity which is
Kerala SSLC
deDned as how far an object travelled from its initial position
The distance measures the actual path of an object that takes in its motion and
displacement measures the overall distance from the initial and Dnal position of the object.

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.3CQ


Can you drive your car in such a way that the distance it covers is (a) greater than, (b)
equal to, or (c) less than the magnitude of its displacement? In each case, give an example
if your answer is yes, explain why not if your answer is no.

Solution:
(A) Yes.
If we drive in a complete circle, the distance covered by us is equal to the circumference of
the circle, while our displacement is zero.
(B) Yes.
If we drive in a straight line, our distance and displacement are equal.
(C) No.
Any deviation from a straight line results in a distance that is greater than the magnitude
of the displacement.

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.4CQ


Art astronaut orbits Earth in the space shuttle. In one complete orbit, is the magnitude of
the displacement the same as the distance traveled? Explain.
Solution:
No.
In this situation, displacement is zero because the initial and Dnal positions are the same
(displacement = Dnal position – initial position). The distance traveled by the astronaut is
equal to 2◊R, where R is the radius of the orbit.

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.4P


In Figure 2-20, you walk from the park to your friend’s house, then back to your house.
What is your (a) distance traveled, and (b) displacement?
Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.5CQ


After a tennis match the players dash to the net to congratulate one another. If they both
run with a speed of 3 m/s, are their velocities equal? Explain.
Solution:
No.
Their velocities are different because they run in different directions.

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.5P

Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.6CQ


Does a speedometer measure speed or velocity? Explain.
Solution:
The speedometer tells us the speed at which we are traveling. It does not tell us the
direction in which we are traveling. Thus, the speedometer measures, not velocity.

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.6P


IP A child rides a pony on acircular track whose radius is 4.5 m. (a) Find the distance
traveled and the displacement after the child has gone halfway around the track, (b) Does
the distance traveled increase, decrease, or stay the same when the child completes one
circuit of the track? Explain, (c) Does the displacement increase, decrease, or stay the
same when the child completes one circuit of the track? Explain, (d) Find the distance and
displacement after a complete circuit of the track.
Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.7CQ


Is it possible for a car to circle a race track with constant velocity? Can it do so with
constant speed? Explain.
Solution:
(i) No.
Since the car circles the track, its direction of motion must be changing. Therefore, its
velocity changes and so it is not constant.
(ii) Yes.
The speed (magnitude of velocity) of the car is constant during the race.

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.7P


CE Predict/Explain You drive your car in a straight line at 15 m/s for 10 kilometers, then at
25 m/s for another 10 kilometers, (a) Is your average speed for the entire trip more than,
less than, or equal to 20 m/s? (b) Choose the best explanation from among the following:
I. More time is spent at 15 m/s than at 25 m /s.
II. The average of 15 m/s and 25 m/s is 20 m/s.
III. Less time is spent at 15 m/s than at 25 m/s.
Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.8CQ


Friends tell you that on a recent trip their average velocity was +20 m/s. Is it possible that
their instantaneous velocity was negative at any time during the trip? Explain.
Solution:
Yes.
For example, your friends may have backed out of a parking space at some point in the
trip, giving a negative velocity for a short time.

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.8P


CE Predict/Explain You drive your car in a Straight line at 15 m/s for 10 minutes, then at 25
m/s for another 10 minutes, (a) Is your average speed for the entire trip more than, less
than, or equal to 20m/s?, (b) Choose the best explanation from among the following:
I. More time is required fo drive at 15 m/s than at 25 m/s.
II. Less distance is covered at 25 m /s than at 15 m/s.
III. Equal time is spent at 15 m/s and 25 m/s.
Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.9CQ


For what kind of motion are the instantaneous and average velocities equal?
Solution:
For constant velocity motion, i.e., straight line motion with constant speed, the
instantaneous and average velocities are equal.

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.9P


Joseph DeLoach of the United States set an Olympic record in 1988 for the 200-meter
dash with a time of 19.75 seconds. What was his average speed? Give your answer in
meters per second and miles per hour.
Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.10CQ


If the position of an object is zero, does its speed have to be zero? Explain.
Solution:
No.
If you throw a ball upward, for example, you might choose the release point to be y = 0.
This does not change the fact that the initial upward speed is not zero.

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.10P


In 1992 Zhuang Yong of China set a women’s Olympic record in the 100-meter freestyle
swim with a time of 54.64 seconds. What was her average speed in m/s and mi/h?
Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.11CQ


Assume that the brakes in your car create a constant deceleration, regardless of how fast
you arc going. If you double your driving speed, how does this affect (a) the time required
to come to a stop, and (b) the distance needed to stop?
Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.11P


BIO Kangaroos have been clocked at speeds of 65 km/h.
(a) How far can a kangaroo hop in 3.2 minutes at this speed?
(b) How long will it take a kangaroo to hop 0.25 km at this speed?
Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.12CQ


The velocity of an object is zero at a given instant of time, (a) Is it possible for the object’s
acceleration to be zero at this time? Explain, (b) Is it possible for the object’s acceleration
to be nonzero at this time? Explain.
Solution:
(A) Yes.
For a body at rest, the instantaneous velocity is zero and the instantaneous acceleration is
also zero.
(B) Yes.
When a body is thrown upward, at the highest point the body has zero velocity, but the
acceleration at this point is equal to the gravitational acceleration (g).

Rubber Ducks A severe storm on January 10,1992, caused a cargo ship near the Aleutian
Islands to spill 29,000 rubber ducks and other bath toys into the ocean. Ten months later
hundreds of rubber ducks began to appear along the shoreline near Sitka, Alaska, roughly
1600 miles away. What was the approximate average speed of the ocean current that
carried the ducks to shore in (a) m/s and (b) mi/h? (Rubber ducks from the same spill
began to appear on the coast of Maine in July 2003.)
Solution:

Chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics Q.13CQ


If the velocity of an object is nonzero, can its acceleration be zero? Give an example if your
answer is yes, explain why not if your answer is no.
Solution:
Yes, if the object moves with constant velocity.
