At some speed, the drag or force of resistance will equal the gravitational pull on the object. At this point the object ceases to accelerate and continues falling at a constant speed called the terminal velocity (also called settling velocity).
-- The train starts at 23 m/s and slows down by 0.25 m/s every second.
So it'll take (23/0.25) = 92 seconds to stop.
-- Its average speed during that time will be (1/2)(23+0) = 11.5 m/s
-- Moving at an average speed of 11.5 m/s for 92 sec, the train will cover
(11.5 m/s) x (92 sec) = <em>1,058 meters</em> .
Answer:
elastic collision
An elastic collision occurs when the two objects "bounce" apart when they collide. Two rubber balls are a good example. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. Almost no energy is lost to sound, heat, or deformation.
I hope it's helpful!
