As a car is driven south in a straight line with decreasing speed, fhe acceleration of the car must be

The answer is directed northward. The acceleration will be negative, since the car is decelerating. Thus the power that is slowing it down must be performing in the opposite direction to that which the car is traveling. Or in other words, when speed is lessening, acceleration is in the opposed direction to velocity. The change is CONTRASTING the velocity and so it slows it down.

How long does it take to reach the moon?
alexdok [17]

Over the past few decades man has always embarked on different space exploration by traveling to the moon. A typical Journey to the moon from Earth will take about 3 days in recent times.

  • It takes about 3 days for a spacecraft to reach the Moon. During that time a spacecraft travels at least 240,000 miles

  • In the year 1969 the first man (Neil Armstrong ) landed on the moon, the journey took him 8 days, 3 hours, 18 minutes, 35 seconds, on 16 July.

As a solid element melts, the atoms become __________ and they have __________ attraction for one another. more separated, more
galina1969 [7]
The complete statement is 

As a solid element melts, the atoms become more separated and they have less attraction for one another. 

Let me explain to you how this happens. In solid phase. Its molecules are arranged in a very compact manner that is why it takes a definite shape and volume. When it is heated, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases. This is characterized by more frequent collisions. The rise in temperature causes the molecules to move rapidly by vibrating. When it reaches an amount of energy that causes the solid to change phase, this is called the latent energy. The molecules break their form and move farther away from each other until it resembles that of a liquid melting. At this point, the molecules would have lesser attraction because of the distance between them.
