Jesse travels 3.0 meters east and then turns and travels 4.0 meters north. the trip requires 35 seconds. what is his velocity? a) 0.14 m/s b) 0.14 m/s, northeast c) 5.0 m/s, northeast d) 5.0 m/s, southwest

0.14 m/s, northeast

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance travelled in east direction,

Distance travelled in north direction,

The shortest path or the displacement of Jesse is,

x = 5 m   ( in northeast direction )

Time taken, t = 35 seconds

Jesse's velocity is defined as the net displacement divided by total time taken i.e.

v = 0.14 m/s

So, the velocity of Jesse is 0.14 m/s and it is in northeast direction. So, the correct option is (b) "0.14 m/s, northeast".
