Answer:
Explanation:36.05 km
Given
First car travels
South
then turns and travels
east
Suppose south as negative y axis and east as positive x axis
So, 

Displacement is the shortest between initial and final point
Dispalcement
Displacement
Displacement
Magnitude 
Magnitude
Explanation:
a) d = ½.a.t²
200 = ½(4)t²
200 = 2t²
t² = 200/2
t² = 100
t =√100 = 10 s
b) Vt = a. t
= 4(10)
= 40 m/s
c) V av. = d/t = 200/10 = 20m/s
Sorry I didn't see this before...
Okay, I see two major problems with this student's experiment:
1) Nitric acid Won't Dissolve in Methane
Nitric acid is what's called a mineral acid. That means it is inorganic (it doesn't contain carbon) and dissolves in water.
Methane is an organic molecule (it contains carbon). It literally cannot dissolve nitric acid. Here's why:
For nitric acid (HNO3) to dissolve into a solvent, that solvent must be polar. It must have a charge to pull the positively charged Hydrogen off of the Oxygen. Methane has no charge, since its carbon and hydrogens have nearly perfect covalent bonds. Thus it cannot dissolve nitric acid. There will be no solution. That leads to the next problem:
2) He's Not actually Measuring a Solution
He's picking up the pH of the pure nitric acid. Since it didn't dissolve, what's left isn't a solution—it's like mixing oil and water. He has groups of methane and groups of nitric acid. Since methane is perfectly neutral (neither acid nor base), the electronic instrument is only picking up the extremely acidic nitric acid. There's no point to what he's doing.
Does that help?
Answer:
Answer:u=66.67 m/s
Explanation:
Given
mass of meteor m=2.5 gm\approx 2.5\times 10^{-3} kg
velocity of meteor v=40km/s \approx 40000 m/s
Kinetic Energy of Meteor
K.E.=\frac{mv^2}{2}
K.E.=\frac{2.5\times 10^{-3}\times (4000)^2}{2}
K.E.=2\times 10^6 J
Kinetic Energy of Car
=\frac{1}{2}\times Mu^2
=\frac{1}{2}\times 900\times u^2
\frac{1}{2}\times 900\times u^2=2\times 10^6
900\times u^2=4\times 10^6
u^2=\frac{4}{9}\times 10^4
u=\frac{2}{3}\times 10^2
u=66.67 m/s
If you were given distance & period of time, you would be able to calculate the speed.
Hope this helps!
