Answer:25.61 m/s

Explanation:

Given

truck is moving eastbound with a velocity of 16 m/s

Velocity of truck v_t=16\hat{i}

SUV is moving south with a velocity of 20 m/s

Velocity of SUV in vector form v_s=-20\hat{j}

Velocity of truck relative to the SUV

v_{ts}=v_{t}-v_s

v_{ts}=16\hat{i}-(-20\hat{j})

Magnitude of relative velocity is

|v_{ts}|=\sqrt{16^2+20^2}

|v_{ts}|=25.61\ m/s

<span>7.7 m/s First, determine the acceleration you subject the sled to. You have a mass of 15 kg being subjected to a force of 180 N, so 180 N / 15 kg = 180 (kg m)/s^2 / 15 kg = 12 m/s^2 Now determine how long you pushed it. For constant acceleration the equation is d = 0.5 A T^2 Substitute the known values getting, 2.5 m = 0.5 12 m/s^2 T^2 2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2 Solve for T 2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2 0.41667 s^2 = T^2 0.645497224 s = T Now to get the velocity, multiply the time by the acceleration, giving 0.645497224 s * 12 m/s^2 = 7.745966692 m/s After rounding to 2 significant figures, you get 7.7 m/s</span>
