Answer:

Option C

16 Km/h

Explanation:

Dana is moving in opposite direction compared to the train.If we denote w-velocity of train with respect to ground and u- velocity of passenger with respect to train and v-velocity of passenger we can using classical mechanics claim that v = w-u

v=20-4=16 km/h

Falling objects drop with an average acceleration of 9.8 m/s2. An arrow is shot with a velocity of 11.76 m/s straight down from
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

3.8 secs

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Initial velocity, u = 11.76 m/s

Final velocity, v = 49 m/s

Using one of Newton's equations of linear motion, we have that:

v = u + gt

where t = time of flight of arrow

The sign is positive because the arrow is moving downward, in the same direction as gravitational force.

Therefore:

49 = 11.76 + 9.8*t\\\\\\\49 - 11.76 = 9.8t\\\\=> 9.8t = 37.24\\\\\\t = \frac{37.24}{9.8} \\\\\\t = 3.8 secs

The arrow was in flight for 3.8 secs
