A train travels due south at 20 m/s. It reverses its direction and travels due north at 20 m/s. What is the change in velocity of the train? 50 m/s, due south e50 m/s, due north 120 m/s, due south zero ms 40 m/s, due north

Respuesta :

Answer:

40 m/s due north

Explanation:

Consider that the south direction a negative Y axis and north direction as  + Y axis

v1 = 20 m/s South = 20 (-j) m/s

v2 = 20 m/s North = 20 j m/s

Change in velocity = v2 - v1 = 20 j - 20 (-j) = 40 j m/s

So, change in velocity is 40 m/s due north.
