Question

The position of a golf ball relative to the tee changes from$<50,20,30>$m to$<53,18,31>$m in$\mathbf{0}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{1}$second. As a vector, write the velocity of the golf ball during this short time interval.

Short answer

The velocity of the golf ball is: m/s.

Step-by-step solution

Identification of given data

The position of a golf ball relative to the tee changes fromm to m

Time t = 0.1s

Calculating average velocity

The position of golf ball relative to the tee changes from,

To find the average velocity vector find the change in position (as a vector) then divide it over the time interval that was needed to change,

m/s

Hence, the velocity of the golf ball during the short time interval ism/s.
