The average velocity can be calculated using the formula:
v = d / t
For the 1st car, the velocity is calculated
as:
v1 = 8.60 m / 1.80 s = 4.78 m / s
While that of the 2nd car is:
v2 = 8.60 m / 1.66 s = 5.18 m / s
Now we can solve for the acceleration using the formula:
v2^2 = v1^2 + 2 a d
Rewriting in terms of a:
a = (v2^2 – v1^2) / 2 d
a = (5.18^2 – 4.78^2) / (2 * 8.6)
a = 0.23 m/s
Therefore the train has a constant acceleration of about
0.23 meters per second.
53/14 meters per second.
Or
About 3.78571 meters per second

Answer:
Red line is reflected ray.
Explanation:
According to the given figure, the blue line represent the incident ray. It strikes the surface and reflection occurs. The dotted line shows normal.
After reflecting the surface, the ray of light is reflected. Red line shows the reflected light.
In this case, the laws of reflection follows i.e. the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
Based on wind resistance?
