Use the equation:
v = u + at
because it has all the variables given and need to find. First you must make sure units are the same. Acceleration is given in m/s^2. Check to make sure this is correct before using the following solution. Convert acceleration from meters per second squared to miles per hour squared.

look up conversion meters to miles
1 mile = 1609.34 meters
10.60 m/s^2 * 1mile/1609.34m = 0.0069 mi/s^2
there are 3600 seconds in an hour, then there are 3600s*3600s in 1 hr^2
0.0069 mi/s^2 * 3600s*3600s/hr^2 = 85362 mi/hr^2

Then using: v = u +at
60 = 55 + 85362t
60 - 55 = 85362t
5 = 85362t
5/85362 = t
5.9 x 10^-5 hr = t
very small value in hours, multiply by 3600 to convert to seconds.

5.9 x 10^-5 hr * 3600s/hr = 0.21 seconds

Which of the follow represent a chemical changes
mixer [17]

Answer:

C) steel turning to rust in salt air

Explanation:

The missing options are:

A) ice melting to form liquid water

B) water boiling to form steam

C) steel turning to rust in salt air

D) sugar dissolving into hot coffee

In a chemical change the atoms of the reacting compounds are reordered forming new compounds. In a chemical change, new compounds appear, but in a physical change not.

Then, change of states like ice melting and water boiling are not chemical changes.

During steel rust, components of steel, like iron, are oxidized, that is, reacts with oxygen forming oxides.

The dissolution of sugar into hot coffee is a physical change in which sugar molecules get further apart in the coffee,  but they don't change.
