A distance of d is covered with 53 mile/hr initially.
Time taken to cover this distance t1 = d/53 hour
Next distance of d is covered with x mile hours.
Time taken to cover this distance t2 = d/x hours.
We have average speed = 26.5 mile / hour
= Total distance traveled/ total time taken
= 

Answer:
The correct answer is a) The kinetic energy of the ice increases by equal amounts for equal distances.
Explanation:
The law of conservation states that the energy cannot be created nor be destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.Before the ice even starts falling we already know that it possesses energy in the form of potential energy given by P=mgh where m is the mass of the ice , g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of the ice above the ground whatever that may be, since a number is not given here.As the ice falls the energy is converted from potential energy to kinetic energy. We notice one thing about the equation for the potential energy P , which is that it is not only directly proportional to h but also is linear in h as well(which is the main reason why a) is correct) which means that if the ice drops by 1 meter the potential energy it will have lost would be ΔPE=mgΔh=-mg, where Δh is the change in its height which is 1 meter here.And according to the principle of conservation of energy this energy must be converted to kinetic energy so the ΔKE=-ΔPE=mg, and this process repeats and for each meter it falls, it picks up the same amount of kinetic energy equaling mg(which is the same as the loss in PE per each meter of fall). So a 2 meter decrease in height will result in an increase in KE of 2mg, a 3 meter decrease in height will result in an increase in KE of 3mg. gain in kinetic energy only depends on the drop in height, which is true irrespective of where the ice might happen to be in its journey close to the top or the bottom. So the drop in height of lets say x at any point in the journey will result in the same increase in KE = ΔKE = mgx. Which proves part a) to be correct.
During either one, the sun, moon, and Earth are lined up in the same straight line. The difference is whether the moon or the Earth is the one in the "middle".
The frequency of oscillation is 2.153 Hz
What is the frequency of spring?
Spring Frequency is the natural frequency of spring with a weight at the lower end. Spring is fixed from the upper end and the lower end is free.
For the mass-spring system in this problem,
The Frequency of spring is calculated with the equation:

Where,
f = frequency of spring
k = spring constant = 64 N/m
m = mass attached to spring = 350g = 0.350 kg
a = maximum acceleration = 5.3 m/s^2
Substituting the values in the equation,



Hence,
The frequency of oscillation is 2.153 Hz
