The units are not consistent - 1 m/s is not the same as 1 km/h.

First thing to do would be to convert from one unit of speed to the other, say km/h to m/s. There are 1000 meters (m) for every kilometer (km) and 3600 seconds (s) for every hour (h), so

1\,\dfrac{\mathrm{km}}{\mathrm h}\cdot\dfrac{10^3\,\mathrm m}{\mathrm{km}}\cdot\dfrac{\mathrm h}{3600\,\mathrm s}\approx0.278\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

So in fact 1 km/h is about 4 times slower than 1 m/s.

A 900 kg car travelling at 12 m/s due east collides with a 600 kg car travelling at 24 m/s due north. As a result of the collisi
katrin [286]

Calculate force of each car:

P1 = 900 kg x 12m/s = 10,800

P2= 600 x 24 = 14,400

Degree of travel = arctan(14,300/10800)

Degree of travel = 53.1 N of E

The temperature inside a vehicle can rise ____ degrees higher than the outside temperature.
Elis [28]

Answer:

Generally, 40 to 50 degrees

Explanation:

About the heat-up over time, whether the windows of a vehicle are locked or partially open makes very little difference. In both situations, in an internal temperature of a vehicle, even at an outside temperature of only 72 ° F, it may exceed approximately 40 ° F within one hour. This happens mainly due to the greenhouse effect that is the heat inside the car is trapped and not allowed to escape. Thus, raising the temperature of the vehicle.
