  • Calculate Velocity: Displacement and Time Problem - Physics Solution
    Here's how to solve this problem:

    1. Determine the Displacement:

    * The car starts 50 m south of the library and ends up 250 m north of the library.

    * This means the total displacement is 50 m (south) + 250 m (north) = 300 m (north).

    2. Calculate the Velocity:

    * Velocity is defined as displacement divided by time.

    * Velocity = Displacement / Time

    * Velocity = 300 m / 15 s = 20 m/s (north)

    Therefore, the velocity of the car is 20 m/s north.
