displacement of the horse in this time?
A. 180 m south
B. 150 m south
C. 150 m
D. 180 m

Respuesta :

Answer: 180 m south

Explanation:

The displacement of the horse in this time is 180 m south. The correct option is A.

What is displacement?

The displacement is the shortest distance travelled by the particle. It is the vector quantity which re[presents both the magnitude and direction.

Velocity is the time rate of change of displacement with time.

Given is a horse runs for 15 seconds to the south at a speed of 12 m/s. So, the displacement is

Displacement = Speed x Time

Put the values, we get

Displacement = 12 m/s x 15s

                      = 180 m

Thus, the displacement of the horse in this time is 180 m south.
