Question
Nityasri walks with a velocity of 3 m/s West for 6 minutes. What is her displacement during this time?
Solution
To calculate the displacement, we need to multiply the velocity by the time.
First, we need to convert the time from minutes to seconds because the velocity is given in m/s.
1 minute = 60 seconds So, 6 minutes = 6 * 60 = 360 seconds
Now, we can calculate the displacement: Displacement = velocity * time = 3 m/s * 360 s = 1080 m
So, Nityasri's displacement is 1080 meters to the West.
