(20 N)/(2 m²) = (20/2) N/m² = 10 Pa

_____

The pascal (Pa) is the derived SI unit of pressure equal to 1 N/m².

Answer: 0 km/h

Explanation:
As a vector, the plane's velocity is 100 km/h (west) - 100 km/h (east) = 0 km/m.
To an observer on the ground, the plane will be standing still.

True [87]

Answer:

At the highest point the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward.

Explanation:

This is a free-fall problem, in the case of something being thrown or dropped, the acceleration is equal to -gravity, so -9.80m/s^2. So, the acceleration is never 0 here.

I attached an image from my lecture today, I find it to be helpful. You can see that because of gravity the acceleration is pulled downwards.

At the highest point the velocity is 0, but it's changing direction and that's why there's still an acceleration there.
