question
Position, Displacement
answer
Answer the questions in this problem using words from the following list: position direction displacement coordinates velocity acceleration distance magnitude vector scalar components Consider a physical situation in which a particle moves from point A to point B. This process is described from two coordinate systems that are identical except that they have different origins. The __________ of the particle at point A differ(s) as expressed in one coordinate system compared to the other, but the __________ from A to B is/are the same as expressed in both coordinate systems.

question
3rd Option
3rd Option
answer
A stone is thrown upward from the edge of a cliff, reaches its maximum height, and then falls down into the valley below. A motion diagram for this situation is given in The figure shows a motion diagram of a stone thrown upward with velocity v. The stone is thrown at zero y-coordinate and zero time moment. The stone reaches a turning point when time t is equal to 2 seconds. Then, it reaches the bottom of the valley when time t is equal to 6 seconds. , beginning the instant the stone leaves the thrower's hand. Construct or select the corresponding motion graphs taking the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity as exactly 10 m/s2. Ignore air resistance. In all three motion graphs, the unit of time is in seconds and the unit of displacement is in meters. In plotting the points, round-off the coordinate values to the nearest integer.
