The formula for average​ speed is S=D/T

1. S=72m/37s

Divide

S= 1.94

Kira's average speed is 1.94m/s.

2. S=7.5km / 1.5h

S=5

Your average speed is 5km/h

3. S=1260km/3.5h

S=360

The airplanes average speed is 360km/h

Why does a properly adjusted head restraint help prevent head and neck injuries to occupants in rear-end collisions? Explain you
hammer [34]
When a car hits you in a rear end collision, the car initially has a momentum going in one direction. This causes your car to move in the same direction that car was moving even if you were at rest. So, for conservation of momentum, you initially have momentum going in the east direction for example, after the collision, you will have a change in momentum which causes you to have a velocity in the west direction. This is because you are initially at rest and then there is a sudden change in velocity so when you speed up, that momentum causes you to move backwards. If you don't have a properly adjusted neckrest you could may experience whiplash.

A larger car takes more force to move._
FrozenT [24]
Newton’s 2nd law
———

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly related to the force on it, and inversely related to the mass of the object. You need more force to move or stop an object with a lot of mass (or inertia) than you need for an object with less mass. .
