let each runner starts from rest

v₀ = initial velocity of each runner = 0 m/s

t = time of travel = 2 sec =

a = average acceleration

average acceleration is given as

a = (v - v₀)/t

inserting the values

a =  (v - 0)/t

a = v/t

since each runner gains equal amount of speed in given time interval of "t". hence the average acceleration of each runner is same.

Answer:

Two runners start a race. After 2 seconds, they both have the same velocity.  they both started at the same time, how do their average velocities compare? They have the same acceleration rate.

A 5kg box slides across the floor with an initial velocity of 5m/s. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and t
4vir4ik [10]

The net force on the block perpendicular to the floor is

∑ F[perp] = F[normal] - mg = 0

so that

F[normal] = (5 kg) g = 49 N

Then

F[friction] = 0.1 F[normal] = 4.9 N

so that the net force parallel to the floor is

∑ F[para] = -4.9 N = (5 kg) a

Solve for the acceleration a :

a = (-4.9 N) / (5 kg) = -0.98 m/s²

Starting with an initial velocity of 5 m/s, the box comes to a stop after time t such that

0 = 5 m/s - (0.98 m/s²) t

⇒   t ≈ 5.1 s

That's going to depend on the mass of the crate. They'll be able to push a crate full of pingpong balls really high, but they may not be able to even budge the crate at all if it's full of bricks.

Which sentence contains italicized words that are used as an infinitive phrase?
In-s [12.5K]
First, the infinitive phrase must contain the word "to", so the only options are A and D.

In D "to" is a preposition: it specifies the spacial relation: to the grocery store.

The infinitive phrase is "to go" and the answer is A.

A light ray in air enters and passes through a block of glass. What can be stated with regard to its speed after it emerges from
Alik [6]

Answer:

Speed is same as that before it entered glass.

Explanation:

Given:

A light ray enters and passes through the glass as shown in the diagram.

We have to analyze its speed.

Speed of light in air is 3\times 10^8\ ms^-^1 and speed of light in glass is 2.25\times 10^8\ ms^-^1

Whenever a light ray enters a glass block or slab there is bending of light at the interface of the two media.

So speed of light will decrease in glass medium and again it passes to the air.

So

Speed of light in air will again increase or will be equivalent to the earlier speed when it was entering the glass block.

Finally

Speed is same as that before it entered glass as it in the same medium (air).
