An ant crawls in a straight line at a constant speed of 0.24 m/s for a distance of 3.0 m, beginning in the corner of a square classroom. It then turns exactly 90 degrees to the right, and proceeds an additional 4.0 m with a constant speed of 0.44 m/s, reaching the other corner of the same wall from which it began. What was the average speed for the full trip from corner to corner?
A. 0.34 m/s
B. 0.30 m/s
C. 0.21 m/s
D. 0.23 m/s
E. 0.32 m/s
E. 0.32 m/s

Uniform Circular Motion: A car goes around a circular curve on a horizontal road at constant speed. What is the direction of the friction force on the car due to the road?
A. tangent to the curve in the forward direction B. tangent to the curve opposite to the direction of the car's motion C. perpendicular to the curve outward D. perpendicular to the curve inward E. There is no friction on the car because its speed is constant.
