Answer:vs=5mph  , vk=7+vs=12mph

Explanation: kinematics with constant speed

(shaun) xs = 0 + vs*t

(keegan)  xk= 68 - vk*t

they meet after t= 4hours (xs=xk):

vs*t=  68-vk*t

but we know that vk=7+vs ( keegan faster) replacing:

vs*4= 68-(7+vs)*4

solving vs=5mph  , vk=7+vs=12mph

A ball rolled 12.0 m [E] in 10.0 s, hit an obstacle, and rolled straight back. After the collision, the ball rolled 8.00 m [W] i
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

the average velocity of the ball is 5 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial position of the ball, x₁ = 12 m East

final position of the ball, x₂ = 8 m West

initial time of motion, t₁ = 10.0 s

final time of motion, t₂ = 6.0 s

The average velocity is calculated as follows;

v = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t} = \frac{x_1 \ - \ x_2}{t_1 \ - \ t_2}

let the Eastward direction be positive

Let the westward direction be negative

\frac{x_1 \ - \ x_2}{t_1 \ - \ t_2} = \frac{12 \ - \ (-8)}{10 -6}= \frac{20}{4} = 5 \ m/s

Therefore, the average velocity of the ball is 5 m/s.

there are 3 ways heat can be transferred: through solids, called ___ , through liquids and gases , called ____ , and through ele
avanturin [10]

Explanation :

The transfer of heat continues untill the two bodies reach thermal equilibrium.

The heat can be transferred in via some processes like conduction, radiation and transfer of energy by changing of phase.

(1) Conduction : It is the transfer of heat via a solid. Heat can be transferred from one solid body to another.

(2) Convection : It is the transfer of heat from one place to another by the movement of fluids. Fluids include both liquids and gases.

(3) Radiation : It is the process of transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves. It is generated by the thermal motion of particles. All matter having a temperature greater than absolute zero emits radiation.
