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

You accelerate from 2m/s to 6m/s while traveling a distance of 2m; what was your acceleration?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The acceleration is 8 m/s²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial velocity, u = 2 m/s

The final velocity, v = 6 m/s

The distance the acceleration took place, s = 2 m

The acceleration, a, can be found from the following kinematic equation;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

By substituting the values, we have;

6² = 2² + 2 × a × 2

6² - 2² = 2 × a × 2

32 = 4·a

a = 32/4 = 8 m/s²

The acceleration, a, of the given motion = 8 m/s².

Explanation:

55 - 45 = 10

10/45 simplifies to 2/9

2/9 = 0.22222... so 22.22% (rounded 22%)
