Answer:
Along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of Florida, the land surface is also sinking. If the oceans and atmosphere continue to warm, sea level along the Florida coast is likely to rise one to four feet in the next century. Rising sea level submerges wetlands and dry land, erodes beaches, and exacerbates coastal flooding.
Explanation:
Answer:
0.243 m/s
Explanation:
From law of conservation of motion,
mu+m'u' = V(m+m')................. Equation 1
Where m = mass of the first car, m' = mass of the second car, initial velocity of the first car, u' = initial velocity of the second car, V = Final velocity of both cars.
make V the subject of the equation
V = (mu+m'u')/(m+m')................. Equation 2
Given: m = 260000 kg, u = 0.32 m/s, m' = 52500 kg, u' = -0.14 m/s
Substitute into equation 2
V = (260000×0.32+52500×(-0.14))/(260000+52500)
V = (83200-7350)/312500
V = 75850/312500
V = 0.243 m/s
