Complete Question
A frog jumps to the left with an average speed of 1.8m/s for 0.55s What was the frog's displacement in meters.
Answer:
The displacement is [tex]d = -0.99 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The average speed is [tex]v = -1.8 \ m/s[/tex]
The negative sign indicates that the frog jumped to the left (negative x-axis )
The time taken is [tex]t = 0.55 \ s[/tex]
Generally displacement is mathematically represented as
[tex]d = v * t[/tex]
[tex]d = -1.8 * 0.55[/tex]
[tex]d = -0.99 \ m[/tex]
