An airplane was moving 1200 km per minute traveling in a north-to-south direction when they were spotted by air traffic control.

Because they were only 2 miles off the ground and 5 miles away the airplane was contacted for safety concerns.
Which best describes the motion of the airplane?

Its acceleration was 1200 km/s
Its speed was 1200 km/m southward
Its velocity was 20 km/s southward
Its velocity was 20 km/m

Answer:

Its velocity was 20 km/s southward

Explanation:

As we know that airplane is moving from North to South

So here we will have

v = 1200 km/min

now we know

1 min = 60 s

so we will have

v = 1200 \times \frac{1}{60}

v = 20 km/s

so the velocity of the airplane is towards South moving with speed v = 20 km/s so correct answer will be

Its velocity was 20 km/s southward

erik [133]

Answer:

Bounce 1 ,  pass 3,   emb2

Explanation:

(By the way I am also doing that question on College board physics page) For the Bounce arrow, since it bumps into the object and goes back, it means now it has a negative momentum, which means a larger momentum is given to the object. P=mv, so the velocity is larger for the object, and larger velocity means a larger kinetic energy which would result in a larger change in the potential energy. Since K=0.5mv^2=U=mgh, a larger potential energy would have a larger change in height which means it has a larger angle θ with the vertical line. Comparing with the "pass arrow" and the "Embedded arrow", the embedded arrow gives the object a larger momentum, Pi=Pf (mv=(M+m)V), it gives all its original momentum to the two objects right now. (Arrow and the pumpkin), it would have a larger velocity. However for the pass arrow, it only gives partial of its original momentum and keeps some of them for the arrow to move, which means the pumpkin has less momentum, means less velocity, and less kinetic energy transferred into the potential energy, and means less change in height, less θangle.  So it is  Bounce1, pass3, emb2.
