Climate is a particular place's distance from the equator
8.0 m/s if there is no air resistance. (B)
Less if there IS any air resistance.
The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is
directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in
the form of:
d = k t^2
where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs /
s^2
<span>Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t
= 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:</span>
2 = k (2)^2
k = 2 / 4
k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2
The equation becomes:
d = 0.5 t^2
Now solving for d when t = 4:
d = 0.5 (4)^2
d = 0.5 * 16
<span>d = 8 furlongs</span>
<span>
</span>
<span>It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.</span>
<u>Answer:</u>
<h3>During wet and freezing temperatures, ice is able to form at a faster pace on bridges because freezing winds blow from above and below and both sides of the bridge, causing heat to quickly escape. The road freezes slower because it is merely losing heat through its surface.</h3>
