Worked example Time to reach plant is 300s. Brian North • Find • Distance travelled to plant. • Displacement. • Average speed. • Average velocity. Now do the extra sheet on the snail race
Using Scale Diagrams Worked example A boy ran 200m due north followed by 200m to the east. What distance does he travel? What was his resultant displacement? If it took 3mins 20 s to run this what was his speed and velocity? Can you find the displacement without using a scale diagram? . Tutorial questions page 5 and 6 Qu 4 to 9
