"Acceleration" does NOT mean speeding up. It also doesn't mean
slowing down. Acceleration means ANY change in the speed
OR DIRECTION of motion.
The only kind of motion that's NOT accelerated is motion at a steady
speed AND in a straight line.
Even when your speed is steady, you're accelerating if your direction
is changing.
A few examples:
(no speeds are changing):
-- driving on a curved road, or turning a corner
-- going around a curve on a skateboard, a bike, or a Segway
-- running on a quarter-mile track
-- an Indy car cruising a practice lap around the track
-- water spinning, getting ready to go down the drain
-- any point on the blade of a fan
-- the little ball going around the inside of a Roulette wheel
-- the Moon in its orbit around the Earth
-- the Earth in its orbit around the sun
Answer:-2.61 m/s
Explanation:
This problem can be solved by the Conservation of Momentum principle, which establishes that the initial momentum 
must be equal to the final momentum 
:
(1)
Where:
(2)
(3)
is the mass of the first car
is the velocity of the first car, to the North
is the mass of the second car
is the mass of the second car, to the South
is the final velocity of both cars after the collision
(4)
Isolating :
(5)
(6)
Finally:
(7) This is the resulting velocity of the wreckage, to the south
Answer:
Diffraction: Wave Theory
Interference: Wave Theory
Reflection: both particles and wave theories
Refraction: both particles and wave theories
Answer:
Amplitude.
Explanation:
The velocity of a wave is given by :
velocity = total distance covered/total time taken
In the case of a wave the total distance covered is equal to the amplitude of a wave. It is the maximum displacement covered by the wave. So, the velocity of a wave is a function of its amplitude. Hence, the correct option is (D).
