Chapter 1.4, Problem 1aT

(1)

To determine

To Draw: The position vectors for each of the two locations A and B , and the vector that represents the displacement from A and B .

(2)

To determine

To Describe: Direction of average velocity of the object between A and B .

To Draw: The vector to represent average velocity.

(3)

To determine

To Describe:Whether the direction of average velocity over the interval AB does change or not if a point B lies in between point AandB .

(4)

To determine

To Describe: The direction of the instantaneous velocity of the object at point A .

To Characterize: The direction of the instantaneous velocity at any point on the trajectory and whether it depends on speed of object or not.
