<span>2.5 m/s going upward.
   In the situation described, Erica and Danny undergo a non-elastic collision which will conserve their combined momentum. Since Erica is stationary, her momentum is 0. And since Danny is moving upward at 4.7 m/s his momentum is 43 kg * 4.7 m/s = 202.1 kg*m/s. Assuming that both Erica and Danny will be moving as a joined system, their combined mass is 38 kg + 43 kg = 81 kg. Since the momentum will be the same, their velocity will be 202.1 kg*m/s / 81 kg = 2.495061728 m/s. Since we only have 2 significant figures in the provided data, rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives a velocity of 2.5 m/s going upward.</span>

someone help pls. Two students, Mia and Peter, leave school to meet at the local coffee shop. Peter decides to jog to the coffee
cluponka [151]

Answer:

1) The distance further it takes Peter to arrive at the Coffee shop than Mia is 1.24 km

2) Mia's average speed is 6.00 km/hour

Peter's average speed is 8.48 km/hour

4) Mia's average velocity = Peter's average velocity = 6.00 km/hour

Explanation:

The given information from the diagram are;

The distance Peter jogs from school to the flower shop = 2.00 km

The distance Peter jogs from the Flower shop to the Coffee shop = 2.24 km.

The distance Mia walks from school directly to the Coffee shop = 3.00 km

The time it takes both Peter and Mia to arrive at the coffee shop = 30 minutes = 0.5 hour

1) The total distance Peter travels from school to the Coffee shop = 2.00 km + 2.24 km = 4.24 km

The distance Mia travels from school to the Coffee shop = 3.00 km

The distance further it takes Peter to arrive at the Coffee shop than Mia = 4.24 km - 3.00 km = 1.24 km

The distance further it takes Peter to arrive at the Coffee shop than Mia = 1.24 km

2) Average \ speed = \dfrac{Total \ distance \ traveled}{Total \ time \ taken \  in \ the \ journey}

Therefore, \ Mia's \ average \ speed = \dfrac{3.00 \ km}{0.5 \ hour}= 6.00 \ km/hour

Mia's average speed = 6.00 km/hour

Peter's \ average \ speed = \dfrac{4.24 \ km}{0.5 \ hour}= 8.48 \ km/hour

Peter's average speed = 8.48 km/hour

4) Average \ velocicty = \dfrac{Displacement }{Time  \ taken}

The displacement from the School to the Coffee shop is 3.00 km for both Mia and Peter

The time it takes both Peter and Mia to arrive at the Coffee shop from the school is 30 minutes = 0.5 hour

Therefore, \ Mia's \ average \ velocity = \dfrac{3.00 \ km}{0.5 \ hour}= 6.00 \ km/hour

Mia's average velocity = 6.00 km/hour

Peter's \ average \ velocity = \dfrac{3.00 \ km}{0.5 \ hour}= 6.00 \ km/hour

Therefore, Peter's average velocity is also = 6.00 km/hour
