Application:
1. A cyclist move along a straight line path 3.0 meters during the first second, 6 meters during the next 2 seconds,
and 9 meters during the next 3 seconds. Describe the motion of the cyclist.

2. Compare your average speed in the following cases;

a. You walk 73.2 meters at a speed of 1.2 m/s and then run 73.2 meters at a speed of 3.1 m/s.

b. You walk for 1 minute at a speed of 1.2 m/s and then run for 1 minute at 3.1 m/s along a straight track.
 3. Cars A and B, each moving at 70 km/h, are approaching one another on a straight highway. After how many
seconds will they meet if they were initially 1 km apart?

Application:

1. Can an object have a constant velocity and still have a varying speed? Explain.

2. What two forces act on a body falling through the air?

3. Can you determine the acceleration due to gravity by dropping a feather? Why or why not?

4. What is the effect of the force of gravity on an object thrown upward?

5. An arrow is shot vertically upward from the ground with a velocity of 122 m/s. How
long will it take the arrow to reach a point 480 m above the ground?

II. Questions:
1. Will changing the order of your displacements in the vector diagram affect the magnitude and
direction of the resultant vector? Support your answer.

2. A knight on a chessboard may be moved two squares right and one square forward. What is the
displacement of the knight if the length of one side of the square is 4 cm? (Assume that the knight is
always placed at the center of the square.)

3. A pizza delivery man leaves the store and drives his motorcycle 2km in a northerly direction to the next
street. He then drives a direction of 60.00 south of east for 1.2km to another street. What is his
resultant displacement? Use graphical and component method.
