A motorcycle begins at rest at t0 = 0 seconds. The motorcycle starts moving, and eventually covers a distance d = 840 m, in a time tf = 189 s. In a coordinate system with north being the positive x-direction, the motorcycle's motion is in the northern direction (see figure). 1. What was the motorcycle's average velocity in in the northern direction vavg,N, in this period in meters per second? 2. If the motorcycle's final velocity at tf was 12 m/s, what was the motorcycle's average acceleration in the northern direction, aavg,N, during this period in m/s2?
