No, both the cars do not have the same velocity.

Velocity is a vector quantity and it is the rate of change of displacement with time or change in speed with direction.

Velocity has both magnitude and direction. So when you are in a car going 70 km/h and another car goes in the opposite direction at 70 km/h their velocities are different. 

How?

Consider your car as moving in the positive direction, so its velocity will be 70 km/h and for the car moving in the opposite direction, since the direction is opposite, the velocity of that car will be -70 km/h. This is because, the velocity is a vector quantity that has both magnitude and direction. For one car, the direction is positive and for the other one the direction is negative.

Tanzania [10]

Answer: 131.14km per day

Explanation: since the second half of the terns migration takes 122 days we can assume that the full migration would take 244 days. using this we can divide the total distance by the total amount of days it takes (because speed = distance/time) which is 32,000/244, which would be 131.14

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 48 and its mass number is 167?
lys-0071 [83]
If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom.  Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.

If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are

             (167 - 48)  =  119 neutrons

in each nucleus.
