2 meters per second for 8 seconds

1.5 meters per second for 8 seconds

The average speed should be 1.8 or 1.7 but I think its 1.8

kirill [66]

Answer 1) : 62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.

2) The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s

Explanation:

1) Displacement of the train = 100 km + 150 km = 250 km

Total time train took =1 hour 15 min+ 45 min + 2 hours = 240 min = 4 hours

Average velocity=\frac{Displacement}{time}=\frac{250 km}{4 hour}=62.5 km/h

62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.

2) The acceleration of the car, a= 1.2 m/s^2

Distance covered by the car,s = 75 m

Initial velocity of the car ,v_i = 6 m/s

Final velocity of thre car ,v_f=?

Using third equation of motion:

v_{f}^2=v_{i}^2+2as=(6 m/s)^2+2\times 1.2 m/s\times 75 m=216 m^2/s^2

v_{f}=14.69 m/s

The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s

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.

What is the reaction force if a girl pulls on a cow?
Papessa [141]
Answer : B) The cow pulls back on the girl.

From newton’s third law we know that every action has a reaction force pushing back. So when the girl pulls on a cow, the cow is pulling back on her.
