Answer:

B) Tommy had a positive acceleration between noon and 12:30 pm.

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

In the problem,

- At noon, Tommy is walking at a velocity of 4 mi/h

- At 12.30 pm, Tommy is walking at a velocity of 6 mi/h

- A time of half an hour (0.5 h) passed between the two moments

So Tommy's acceleration is

a=\frac{6 mi/h-4 mi/h}{0.5 h}=4 mi/h^2

and the acceleration is positive, since the velocity has increased.

PART ONE
Lina20 [59]

Explanation:

Make a table, listing the x and y coordinates of each square's center of gravity and its mass.  Multiply the coordinates by the mass, add the results for each x and y, then divide by the total mass.

\left\begin{array}{ccccc}x&y&m&xm&ym\\\frac{a}{2} &\frac{a}{2} &10&5a&5a\\\frac{3a}{2}&\frac{a}{2}&70&105a&35a\\\frac{a}{2}&\frac{3a}{2}&80&40a&120a\\\frac{3a}{2}&\frac{3a}{2}&50&75a&75a\\&\sum&210&225a&235a\\&&Avg&\frac{15a}{14}&\frac{47a}{42}\end{array}\right

The x-coordinate of the center of gravity is 15/14 a.

The y-coordinate of the center of gravity is 47/42 a.
