<h2>a) Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward</h2><h2>b) Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward</h2>
Explanation:
a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²
s(0) = 76 + 128 x 0 − 16 x 0² = 76 ft
s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft
Displacement in 4 seconds = 332 - 76 = 256 ft
Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward
a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²
s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft
s(8) = 76 + 128 x 8 − 16 x 8² = 78 ft
Displacement in 4 seconds = 78 - 332 = -254 ft
Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward
The easiest way to answer this question is just to get the answer first. The answer is A with the added comment that no chemical reaction has taken place.
Layered means that the chemicals are not soluble in one another. B is not the answer.
C is eliminated by what what was said about A.
D a solution is not a pure substance (singular) by itself. There are at least 2 chemicals together.
Assume that the small-massed particle is
and the heavier mass particle is
.
Now, by momentum conservation and energy conservation:


Now, there are 2 solutions but, one of them is useless to this question's main point so I excluded that point. Ask me in the comments if you want the excluded solution too.

So now, we see that
and
. So therefore, the smaller mass recoils out.
Hope this helps you!
Bye!
B is the answer, I’m really good at this subject
