Answer:

3727.24km/h

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this problem we must first know what is the distance from the earth to the moon, this will be our radius.

=384400Km

Then we find the distance traveled which would be the perimeter of a circle = 2πr, finally to find the speed we divide the distance traveled by 27 days.

Finally we use conversion factor to have the speed in km / h

solving

perimeter= 2(3.14)r=2(3.14)(384400Km)=2415256.432km\\Speed=\frac{2415256.432km}{27days} *\frac{1day}{24h} =3727.24km/h

the moon is orbiting at speed of 3727.24km/h

What is the acceleration of Karla's I Phone being thrown from Mr. Higley's classroom at 0m/s if it hits the wall 1.2 seconds lat
blagie [28]

The acceleration of Karla's I IPhone being thrown from Mr. Higley's classroom at 0 m/s will be 29.16 m/s²

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The rate of velocity change concerning time is known as acceleration. According to Newton's second law, the eventual effect of all forces applied to a body is its acceleration.

The pace at which a body's velocity varies is represented by acceleration, which is a vector quantity.

The given data in the problem is given by ;

u is the initial speed =  0 m/sec

v is the final speed= 35  m/sec

t is the time interval= 1.2 second

a is the acceleration=? m/sec²

The formula for acceleration is;

\rm a=\frac{v-u}{t} \\\\ a= \frac{35-0}{1.2} \\\\ a= 29.16 \ m./s^2

Hence, the acceleration of Karla's iPhone being thrown from Mr. Higley's classroom at 0 m/s will be 29.16 m/s²
