Calculate the X & Y component of car‘s average velocity, by using the data given in the following figure.

  

Solution:

To calculate the X and Y components of the car's average velocity, we can use the following formula:

Average velocity = displacement / time

where displacement is the change in position, which consists of both a change in the X direction `(Delta x)`and a change in the Y direction`(Delta y)`.

Given that `Delta x = 5.0m, Delta y = 4.0m, and t = 3.0s`, we can calculate the X component of the car's average velocity as follows:

X component of average velocity = `Delta x / t = 5.0m / 3.0s = 1.67 m/s`

Similarly, we can calculate the Y component of the car's average velocity as follows:

Y component of average velocity = `Delta y / t = 4.0m / 3.0s = 1.33 m/s`

Therefore, the X component of the car's average velocity is 1.67 m/s and the Y component of the car's average velocity is 1.33 m/s.
