Hi I am in physics 1 and I need help with this problem. It saids a boy runs in an open field. He runs 233m due north in 77 seconds, turns 90 degrees to his left and runs 178m in 93 seconds. Sketch a map of his motion and find the following quantities of his motion during this period from starting time to final time a) Map of his motion b) The total distance he runs (233m + 178m= 411m) c) The displacement from starting position to final position. What I have thus far is I got c=sqrt (233)^2+(178)^2=293m. Would I subtract this number from the total distance? Please includes detailed steps of how to solve this

After a ball rolls off the edge of a horizontal table at time t = 0, its velocity as a function of time is given by v=1.2i9.8tj where v is in meters per second and t is in seconds. The balls displacement away from the edge of the table, during the time interval of 0.380 s for which the ball is in flight, is given by r=00.3803vdt To perform the integral, you can use the calculus theorem [A+Bf(x)]dx=Adx+Bf(x)dx You can think of the units and unit vectors as constants, represented by A and B. Perform the integration to calculate the displacement of the ball from the edge of the table at 0.380 s.
