Question
The diagram below presents the position and elapsed time of a motorbike that starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate. What is the average velocity of the motorbike during first 5 s? (positions: 0s:0m, 1s:2m, 2s:8m, 3s:18m, 4s:32m, 5s:50m)
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Average velocity = total displacement / total time = (50 - 0)/5 = 10 m/s.
Hint
v_avg = Δx/Δt.
