5 0

No, because terminal velocity is when the acceleration of the Earth’s gravity is balanced by the air resistance of the atmosphere.

The jetliner is traveling against the wind. The net speed of the jetliner is
590 mph - 36 mph = 554 mph
The time it takes for the jetliner to arrive at the destination is
1850 miles / 554 mph = 3.34 hours

At a drag race, the light turns green and 0.00125 hours later, a dragster is traveling 300 miles per hour. Calculate the acceler

Talja [164]

Answer:

240000 mph² or miles/hour²

Explanation:

<em>Use the formula</em>

<h3>acceleration = change in velocity ÷ time</h3>

change in velocity = 300 mph - 0 mph (final velocity - intial velocity)

time = 0.00125 hours

<em>Substitute the values into the formula:</em>

acceleration = 300 ÷ 0.00125 = 240000 mph²

Hello There

Answer: The Doppler effect

Reason: The Doppler effect is an increase or decrease in the frequency of sound, light, or waves as the source and observer move to each other. An example would be a firetruck with its siren on driving away from you.

I hope this helps
