When a car is coasting downhill, the kinetic and potential energies are increasing and decreasing respectively.

<h3>What are kinetic and potential energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object because of its motion, equal to one half the mass of the body times the square of its speed.

Potential energy, on the other hand, is the energy possessed by an object because of its position (in a gravitational or electric field), or its condition (as a stretched or compressed spring, as a chemical reactant, or by having rest mass).

According to this question, a car going downhill will begin to speed because there is lesser friction. This suggests that the kinetic energy increases while the potential energy decreases.

At 9:13 A.M., a sports car is traveling 34 miles per hour. Two minutes later, the car is traveling 84 miles per hour. The mean v
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Acceleration will be 25miles/hour^2                    

Explanation:

We have given that car is traveling with speed 34 miles per hour

So initial speed of the car u = 34 miles per hour

After 2 hour speed will be 84 miles per hour

So final speed V = 84 miles per hour

Time = 2 hour

From first equation of motion we know that v=u+at

So acceleration a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{84-34}{2}=25miles/hour^2
